Silverstone GP

Should be interesting. Surprisingly, it's raining! :grin:

Its all going off, well the cars are anyway.

Gutted for DC (out) and Webber(span) though

Great drive from Hamilton. :clap:

So, so, so happy for Rubens and what a great race for him! He would clearly have been driver of the day if the winner wasn't British!

So glad to see him so happy and enjoying his work so much, it's been tough for him since he left Ferrari!

Arise Sir Barrichello, a great racer and a genuinely nice man! :clap:

I think Rubinho was driver of the day.........Honda had good tactics and he was on the full wets when they mattered and everyone else was on the intermediates. If everyone had taken heed off rubinho, that would've been a cracker even more.

Shame for DC dropping out, but, that is the essence of motor racing, did find it slightly odd that mclaren wanted Hamilton in front rather than Heiki

I think it'll perhaps a little of my love for the sport will die when Rubens retires, he's like the last in the line of the "funsters" of Formula 1, the sport really needs people like him to make up for the droning of Kimi et all.

You find it slightly odd that they wanted the car that was lighter and faster to be infront rather than have Hamilton right up Kovalainen's rear?

Went for saftey rather than 2 cars out.

Nice to see Hamilton win! :clap:

There was I sitting in the outskirts of N. London one night when a certain Mr Hill bit the dust over Elstree way. Shit happens

 

[neogenisis]

Was great to see Hamilton win, got dead worried when the rain was lashing down and they stuck Int's on his car at the pitstop....

It could ask for team orders to be considered in that case, after Alonso and Hamilton dibacle last season, do we REALLY want team order from Ron Dennis?

I still can't figure out why most drivers went for intermediates and flew off the road? talk about making it harder for yourself!!:roll:

who said anything about team orders? I dont think they would have gon on to the radio and told Kovalainen that he has to let Hamilton through because he has more points in the constructers championship. Just that he was the quicker of the two at that point.

When Mclaren came in they had both sets ready, but they only exspected to rain for the next 5mins. Although they did exsplane that they could put wets on and get so much extra time they could change again when it dryed.

even the biggest hamilton haters have to give him credit for just how good he was yesterday. near enough everyone spun at some point yesterday yet he managed to win by over a minute which is amazing quite frankly even if it wasnt wet but even more so that it was
