Isn't F1 so boring these days ?
Lets get back to where the DRIVER makes the car look good NOT the budget or the technology.

F1 is more about money than racing and Hamilton is currently more marketable than Alonso

Nice one Alonso you prick Harming Mclaren championship lead now. Ron Dennis should sack the selfish prick! and there needs to be some serious talk in the team. I have always been a Mclaren fan and this does my head in

Real talent IMO

Regarding F1, I see it how others to really, there is no denying that the drivers are talented but team orders and all that must stop, turn the TC off and lets see some real racing

1) So what did you feel when leading the pack round?
2) You've Won here before...
3) So as a world champion...





More funny is the exchance between Ron and Lewis immediately after qualifying!

Lewis : “Don’t ever f**king do that to me
Dennis : “Don’t ever f**king speak to me like that again!”
Lewis : “Go f**king swivel!"

Gonna be some internal shit over that

Think the Stewards at Hungary will get some crap too. for interfering in a team issue not a FIA/Sporting Code one.

Well done to Hamilton too, two fingers up to Alonso !

If the above is true, its interesting how the person who causes the whole debacle, gets promoted to pole position and wins on a track that is well known for its lack of passing opportunities, thereby increasing his lead in the wdc.

Also, am I the only one starting to think that Hamilton is starting to sound a tad smug?

He's smug because he's fucking good.

No-one can touch him..

I'd be doing exactly the same if it were me, 2 fingers up to the lot of them, if they can't keep up its their problem.

About turning the TC off and getting some real racing going.

Well thats all well and good to say, but considering Hamilton manages to get the arse out on a corner with a car that has so much downforce it can drive upside down thats a bit of a stupid recommendation isn't it

No body else kept their engine running either you thick cunt

You keep banging on about this......its well within the rules and if he was clever enough to realise it the good luck to him. If you dont like the rules fair enough but you cant blame one person for operating inside them, the rule has existed for years and years

put like that, it's very intrestings

also rich, it wasn't just a team issue, regardless of who was being hampered, someone was not allowed to go and do his lap by alonso, so the stewards rightly bollocked him
if the lollypop guy had kept his stick down, none of this woul dhave happened


and talking about roastings, who do you think is going to get their marching orders for the massa fuck up when he ran out of fuel

as above Schumacher did it once can't remember where

He had beached the 2 back wheels aftrer spinng when Alonso went past him and he'd kept the engine running and was deemed to be in a dangerous position
