Aussie Aussie Aussie......Go Go Go....

Anyone else screaming at the TV "SOMEONE CRASH !!!!! SAFETY CAR !!!!!!" in between Webber making his first stop and before the leaders made theirs ?. Felt like that race went for 6 hours, very entertaining.

Diserving champion IMHO. I would most definitely cry like a little school girl if I one an F1 championship....just quietly.

Wow - that sentence fails my parser. 

Nice editing.  I prefer the original version that you posted.

Who gives a stuff about what they are like, that race was an absolute ripper!, Formula 1 has been boring the last few years, now DRS which allows overtaking, soft and hard tyres, tyres wearing out and loosing their grip, more overtaking, more stratergy, even last night, cars breaking down, you try to tell people why you like motor racing, and its because of what happened last night, and Webber 19th to 4th or possibly 3rd, how good was that, Colin.

Sigh ... Colin, don't spoil a good thread!

Finally the FIA dudes understand F1 is as much about entertainment as the technology.  Like you say Colin, DRS and the tyres this year have completely transformed it.  I used to go to sleep watching the replay; not anymore.

I don't understand what you mean?

ProvaRacing must have accidentally edited his post after he originally published it.  



So I think he's just trying to say that Alonso is a really, really, nice guy.  Fair enough.

Ok I will explain or rather clarify what happened. Yes original post was meant to be the post however when I was editing it became difficult to scroll down and see exactly what I was changing, maybe due to too many quotes, in the end I had to delete most until I could work out why. Still can't understand why it prevents me seeing what i am editing.

In any case what I am saying is at the time of the original posts (in 2010) and ever since the only cry baby in F1 drivers parade has been Lewis...even to the point of losing concentration whilst questioning every call from his team. How anyone could bag someone else without a mention of Lewis is puzzling.

As for Alonso he has been given a flawed car for the last two seasons and yet not once has he whined or whinged before, during or after a race...he just gives 100% all the time and it is this attribute that sees him leading the title chase (by coincidence with Mark in second).

So the heavy abuse was over the top and I suspect motivated to attack me as I had mentioned him, rather than an accurate description of the who's who of cry babies.

[Evan Bottcher]

Let me understand this a little better - you think that because someone doesn't like Alonso, that they are attacking you.  So in response you call one person a 'failed journo', and another a 'huge shit'.

Have I got that right?

I'm sure there a rules about personal insults on this forum, I for one do not log on to read crap like this

Yes, I have actually fallen asleep watching the replays from the previous years, but not this year. I find I have to watch the replay just to wrap my head around what has just happened. Previously I would only focus on a few leading cars, but now I feel like almost anyone can win.
How does one explain Webber finishing 4th from 19th!!! And I'd love to hear Vettel explaining why his team mate Webber is second in the championship..Ha Ha.

Colin, you say Webber possibly third. I agree. I thought I actually saw the open wing on Schueys merc while he had Webber poised to pass him near the end of the race, and I also thought I saw a graphic at the same time with the green DRS light ON!?!? I nearly fell off my couch. Did you also see that?

How about Vettels qualifying lap. I hate to admit it, fricken awesome, waits to the last second, goes out, and gave them all a lesson! It was Vettel, then all the rest.

Go Webber!!

Frank you and me go to the G.P. at Albert Park, and stand at the side of the track and see what great drivers these blokes are, even the H.R.T. drivers are good, Alonso has to be driver of the year, he is the best driver in a average car, but did you notice the mistake that Red Bull made, the wrong car broke down during the race, after Mark had all that trouble during Qually, i used to fall asleep, now afterwards i can't fall asleep, 3 hours sleep on Monday morning, [but worth it], Colin.

Locking this thread at request of the club president, with the suggestion to start a new F1 thread but no personal abuse or it will be removed.
