  • Lease, that's ... almost .... sensible ... Nooooooooooooooooo, it can't be him. Someone's hacked into his account.
  • re: the election. Nice to see Oz TV priorities are in order - Masterchef bumps the leaders' debate. Good on yer ..
  • I understand most of what you lot say. Its not funny but I understand it is your version of humour. The 'long bow' stuff? I don't even understand that.
  • They're very proud of her in the Original South Wales. [Edited on 11-7-10 by viges]
  • When I saw it live I thought 50-50 but replays proved its Seb's fault - a right lil' Schumi. Doesn't smile too much these days, now does he? LOVED Lewis and Jense - proper racing but I doubt Seb will learn much from it. RBR are a funny bunch. Marv…

  • Have you heard about Merc's major mid-season upgrade? Its called Nick Heidfeld.
    in Schumacher Comment by viges May 2010
  • DC & Brundle analysed Schumi's quali lap and said although he may well be driving to his 'limit', he is not driving to the car's limit.

  • I say, I say, I say ... what do you call an Australian in a suit? The defendant.
  • Yes, but I'm afraid after your 'incident' involving a horse of the Household Cavalry you remain on the Scotland Yard 'watch' list.
  • "he prevented the car behind from gaining the momentum it needed in the tow to launch an attack." Yah big pooftah (as they say in Canberra). Did you want Lewis to offer some canapes on the way past as well? I think you'll find Petrov was driving th…
  • Good prediction manlio! If RBR can stay reliable then this must be their championship to lose. Fascinating at the top and still very hard to call. Fred did amazingly well considering his issues. TOIT and Macca were chumps on Saturday - even I know t…
  • Ah, yes, the last TOIT privateers ... May I recommend a well-reviewed book on the team? http://www.veloce.co.uk/shop/products/productDetail.php?prod_id=v4160&prod_group=Motorsport&
  • I have contacted the sellers to enquire about the engine and recent history. Will keep you posted. The only Minardi I know which raced in the historic series was an M185. It won its class.
  • Fantastic. Similar conditions to '02, eh Roo? Webbo was over-driving today and paid the price. Jenson was coolly inspired. Lewis was storming but that probably did for his tyres. The move in the fast chicane was awesome. However, I don't think he c…
    in Melbourne GP Comment by viges March 2010
  • There have been some great races. I always hated refuelling and the sprint-stop-sprint nature of the race but admit I was worried about drivers nursing their tyres in the new formula. Hasn't happened. We must ensure refuelling NEVER returns.
  • "Guv, there's a bloke 'ere who doesn't know who he is ..." Webbo seems far too 'grounded' to get huffy with 'civilians'.
  • Great intel from BBC pitlane reporter Ted Kravitz. Fred was expected to fight Seb for position had the Renault engine stayed together ... http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/motorsport/formula_one/8572060.stm [Edited on 17-3-10 by viges]
  • Some customers are more equal than others. I believe I read Macca have certain guarantees for the next few seasons.
  • Post race ... Fred is the boy to be beat. I think this will be a classic TOIT v Macca scrap - RBR still have reliability issues and it can't help having 'customer' engines. Merc are fourth right now. Overtaking? Schumi says its impossible. Oh dear…
  • Stefan all sounds v dodgy. Toyota must've bitten their arms off when they came waving cash. Andrea Moda, anyone? Shame for US but it always seemed a long shot. Yes, there should be a race in the US of A (+ Canada) but basing a team there seems a li…

  • USF1 also croaking. Lotus look OK in tests this week, Virgin less so.
    in New cars Comment by viges February 2010
  • BRG looks nicer with a yellow stripe (compared to Jag F1)
    in New cars Comment by viges February 2010
  • Campos are out. USF1 still optimistic.
    in New cars Comment by viges February 2010
  • Schumi right on the pace as is Massa.
    in New cars Comment by viges February 2010
  • Happy things; a fascinating season awaits ...
  • Jackie Stewart was on the BBC tonight and he brought up Schumi's 'retirement' in 2006. It reminded me it seemed a bit odd at the time, sort of forced onto him because TOIT wanted to nab Kimi while it could. Anyway, Jackie's point was that Schumi re…
  • Good incentive to win a race at last and, er, maybe do some overtaking.
  • Except ... the 'launch' cars will bear little relation to those we see in Bahrain. Can you imagine how cagey each Tech Director is going to be knowing that everyone is going to be there, studying the oppositions' innovations?
