yeah, and them trying to make out after the race that it wasnt that which cost them the race!
 
pretty eventfull really, hopefully its going to be a really tight finish to the season with at least 3 if not 4 people challenging for the title!

Agreed, the season could unfold very well the way things are going. A few races ago i thought it Buttons year, game over... I still think he will win but not as convincingly as i first thought.

I feel for Vettel, he has to finish the season on 2 engines or incurr a 10 place penalty... Rules him out of the championship imo, pity.

Lol at the qualifying today. Hamilton took a p1ss poor show like a man (im still not a fan), the usual excuses and misery are pouring from Button again. He totally had his ar5e handed to him buy Barrichello and had no reason for being this way...

Cant wait till the start tomorrow. Button, Hamilton and Alonso all in close proximity...
 
Edit.. Im completely lost regarding Force India and Fishichella... haha. This season really has been a total surprise!

I think the timing equipment is broken again, it seems to have reversed the results by mistake.

Anyway, fuel corrected, Vettel looks good for the race, Fisichella is running fairly light.

Please tell me Renault are getting kicked out of the season after today!

whats happened mate?  ive been so busy havent seen any news at all today!
 

Briatore chief principle of the Renault Team resigned today under allegations he told Piquet Junior to put his car into teh wall at last years Singapore race to make the Saftey car come out handing the lead to Alonso.

Piquet let it all out after he was dropped from the team.

Sorry working from memory, the HAmmer Gun Nail in the coffin is Renault arnt contesting this, they got nothing to come back with.

fook me! thats so unbelievable, you know its true!

they deserve a huge penalty for that, if not kicking out of the season.  they should lose the money they got from the constructors championship as well

ive never liked briatore from the way he is on the grid about the sport and bernie

I dont think the whole team should be punished as a result of the managements actions. If it was Briatorie and Symonds they should be banned from being invovled in any motor-racing that falls under the umbrella of the FIA.

If Renault are punished severly they might leave F1.

I find it hard to believe in a tight knit team like this that no one knew, like what about the thousands of data loggeed from the car, all of that, team radio is open now too, no private chats really, all of it handily not about when the digging starts, they have to be kicked out to set the example.

And some kinda pretense that Alonso knew nothing about it, my ass.

They knowingly put lives at risk on such a in-escapable circut, their where cars directly behind him as he came out of that corner.

Shame, I liked Pat Symonds.

Never liked Flava Flavia, though.

Piquet really screwed them after he was dumped!

It seems like the team will get a relatively wasy ride because those two jumped ship.
My guess is that they will lose all their team points this season like McLaren did.

sweet, sauber want back in with BMW and they are in line for next years grand prix but were only in a reserve capacity waiting for a team to drop out.
 
lotus are back in too

I read yesterday that Lotus are back in too... I think thats 12-13 teams now isnt it? Ruling out BMW...?
I read that BMW are now on standby as the grid is at full capacity for the current rules/agenda. They have said they may increase this though if BMW or that team return.
It should be good with more cars in the race, more overtaking and will show driver error more when lapping etc.

I never liked Briatore so wont miss him at all. I hope Alonso isnt penalised for this though, harldy his fault is it.

Lotus are in - great
BMW have a buyer - so all good there

Renault  - well, what's to say. I read the transcript and PS was guilty as fcuk LOL. They tried to cover their tracks well, what with threatening the Piquets with legal action etc. Annoyingly the 2 of them probably got a hefty 'piss off and say nothing' payment from Renault. They need serious punishment tho, the potential for serious consequences of intentionally crashing warrent major punishment IMHO. And to show the fans that this stuff is taken seriously

who cares if renault leave.  there are plenty of teams, and more coming in now that f1 is getting slightly cheaper to compete in with the rule changes. 

in fact i really think renault leaving would be a good thing, its them and viatore (even though hes now gone) that always seemed to be causing trouble or stamping their feet with threats about not getting what they wanted.

in fact i think they should get a years ban from the sport for such a dangerous stunt, that could have cost lives and done huge damage.  Let other people take their space on what will be a full grid next year.

Their fans, Red Bull who use their engines, their employees!

Renault are one of the quieter teams on the grid and Flav is best mates with Bernie.

Nice one genius... and I suppose the 400 people they have working for them  should all go down the job centre eh?

yeah they should.  i couldnt care less. 
 
its a hugely reckless thing to do.  what if they had killed someone?  you cant have a safe crash.
 
 if my opinion botheres you then go fcuk yourself sideways.
