Spanish Grand Prix
Certain Spaniard hates Hamilton
Spanish marshals probably agree with him
He drives for Ferrari
Ferrari Internationale de l'Automobile agrees with him
It's a conspiracy I tells ya!0 -

He'll still crash it into the back of someone and blame them. Had a warm feeling of old times when he did that.0

So Monaco weekend is upon us, unfortunatly i think Vettal might increase his lead?
I'd love to see Hamilton win, a win here will see him elevate his game!0 -
Maldonado was a nutter this morning.
Hamilton or Alonso for a win, Schumacher as an outside bet0 -
10 place penalty for Maldonado with his move on Perez in P3. Should have been DQd.BillyMansell wrote:Maldonado was a nutter this morning.

Maldonado... What a complete prick. Superb drive in barcelona, but he really needs to get on top of his ego, much like schumacher after it emerged he took to the escape road/old circuit in Barcelona to block Hamilton. Its just not on.
Props to the old boy though, what a lap, and frankly regardless of his actions, I'm kinda glad he's proved people that he can still do it. Respect on one hand and complete disgust in another... some things never change ehh!

Makes you wonder if last year was very much down to the tyres for Vettel, much like it was for schumacher in the ferrari/bridgstone years. He can't get a grip on these new compounds this year, and he looks panicked, slow and looking out of his depth abit. The car is good, as webber shows, but poor old seb just can't hook it up. Shame really.... NOT!! If anything his run so far this season, with a flukey win in Bahrain, shows how he is clearly not of the same league as Hamilton and Alonso.0 -
Who saw the race then.
Top 3 didnt put a foor wrong all race, well done to them. good race to watch, though never much overtaking its amazing to see the skill of the drivers round such a tight circuit!0 -
Excellent race and kudos to Webber for well deserved win
Man of the racer has to be Vettel who made his first set f tires last forever and clawed his way from 10th to 3rd
Condolences to Schumacher who got clipped in the start and pushed back to 8th, but retired with an engine failure
Six different winners in 6 races, amazing, but then again I "blame" this trend on those awful Pirelli tyres that have turned the 2012 season into a "luck of the tyres lottery"0 -

The tyres are utter shite. it's just gone too far now imo. Guys like Vettel are just sitting out Q3, starting on the prime tyre and just trying to go as far as they can. Fair enough had he fallen out in Q2 like Button, but getting into Q3 and just strolling round on the prime tyre to set a time, its just patheic and if anything detracts from anyone who calls him a racer, MTFU and rag that car for its worth. It says alot about a man who set a record for pole positions last year, if he's so good then he should put the effort in. His tactics in Monaco were purely just good tactics, he knew he wasn't fast enough, bear in mind webber was on pole in the same car, and used a different strategy to gain places before his, knowing he'd have no problem holding off the others round the streets of Monaco. The other guys made the prime tyre last just as long, but because Vettel had missed Q3, started on a brand spanking new set of primes and made them last an average distance (the others had started to catch him for a good 3/4 laps before his stop). The others did it properly and gave a proper show all weekend. If they want to improve the spectacle, give the guys a tyre that isn't so un-predictable and and the teams can just get on it.0 -

Dammit! why didnt i look on here Grrr Stayed up to watch on BBC, bleeding tired today butwell worth it, What a great race, happy that hamilton won with no penaltys and no crashes, Felt sorry for Alonso but it almost worked!Raymondavalon wrote:0 -
Gave me a chuckle each time Alonso slipped a place at the end, and nice one for Hamilton. 7 winners in 7 races, who's next? !0

Next will be an outsider.. Sergio Perez or someone like that
The tyre saga is causing the [faux] excitement in F1, it's a lottery now, some cars work with tyres on certain tracks, others do not.
I think Pirelli have made a cluster f**k of this sport. Consistency is a thing of the past...0 -
i think your right about Perez, i think he'll get at least one win this year, also Grosjean might sneak one in? Kimi?
I like the Tyre thing, its so hard to predict especially the cliff aspect. 8)0 -

Well no two ways about it, what a race! Frankly the fact Maldonado has previous with Hamilton, and he clearly just t-boned off the track, a 20 second penalty is just not enough, he has been cautioned already this season and to be fucking honest a DSQ would have been ample punishment and a grid penalty for silverstone on top too, FFS sake the FIA need to set a fucking example for these muppets who think they can get away with murder... (but oh wait Jean fucking Todt would do anything to help his beloved ferrari...) get of your fucking high-horses, you're shit and you know it, so just fucking drive the car without hitting any one and ruining a great fight at the end. fucking rich prick Maldonado.0

You are taking a bunch of rich bods driving around a track far too seriously, I think.I don't do smileys.
