Re: Formula 1 General Chat & Discussion

Wel the start of this race was allready one to remember because of the crash of Lucas DiGrassi when he drove to the starting grid .
And the start was also one to remember with the crash of Vitaly Pedrov ,Nico Hulkenberg ,Vitantonio Liuzzi,Felipé Massa ( i found that Felipé did a nice start..until he made a mistake on passing the car in front of him on a not soo ideal manouver ...and this was allready the end of his race Sad ..and i'm sure that some people in Italy will have some very unpleasant comentary about this ..and that the big boss Luca Dimontezemelo is not amused with this out come Confused ,i hope that Félipe can stay at Ferrari because there are a lot of rumores lately ..even when he has allready a contract for next season )
Thanks to Kamui Kobayashi we saw some nice ( and sometimes dangerous/agressif) overtakings Thumb up Thumb up ..and let's face it ..this is the thing that we want to see in a F1 race Smile
And thank god that nobody get hurt of the tyres that where flying of the cars ( again !)
A great result for Schumi SmileThumb up ( only sad that it happend because of the crash of his team mate Nico Rosberg who lost a tyre !!! ... but that's racing ofcourse Confused )
And finaly about Alonso ..he did the best he can in this race ,the Red Bulls where a class higher than all the other cars

Re: Formula 1 General Chat & Discussion

It now can,t go by numbers as Lewis Hamilton as had to change his gear box so 5 place drop from where he should be when qualifying starts.

Re: Formula 1 General Chat & Discussion

" Sunday's qualifying session will start at 10.00 hours local time, 01.00 hours GMT, by which time conditions are expected to have improved. "

Official ,the qualification will be at 03.00u tonight ( till 04.00u ) ,4 hours before the race starts !!!!!!!!! ,checkt 8 F1 sites ,so no doubt about it anymore .

If there is still too mutch rain and the circuit is not oké to put a F1 car on it than the FIA will put the starting grid in order of the car numbers ..this means that Car number 1 will start at the front ( McLaren Mercedes ,Jenson Button) followed by Car number 2 ( McLaren Mercedes ,Lewis Hamilton ) and so on ...

Re: Formula 1 General Chat & Discussion

I've just started my tv to watch the qualifying but there is to much rain in Suzuka.
It's either delayed to 14:30 Japanese time or the oualifying will start on Sunday before the race.
The podium voters have to get up very early in the morning or it will be a long night with less sleep if there is no action today.

Re: Formula 1 General Chat & Discussion

Nick heidfeld will be replacing Pedro De La Rosa at sauber for the remaining 5 races of the season, I am surprised he did not stay as test driver for pirelli till the end of the season, as that knowledge of the tires would be sought after by better teams?

Re: Formula 1 General Chat & Discussion

Formula One's governing body will not impose any further sanctions on Ferrari or its drivers following a hearing in Paris on Wednesday.

The FIA upheld the $100,000 fine handed down by the race stewards following the German Grand Prix in July, when the team was found to have ordered Felipe Massa to allow Fernando Alonso to win.

But Angelo Sticchi Damiani, president of Italy's CAI Motorsport Federation, said a meeting of the FIA's world motor sport council agreed unanimously not to impose any further punishment.

As usual Ferrari get away with it - if it had been any other team they would have had a more severe punishment or ban
