Exactly, Glock and Trulli with nearly identical lap times, both on slicks. But it does SEEM like something tricky was going on.

Nice gifs BTW!

namdoogwerdna · 11-02-2008, 05:43 PM

it's just that he got out of the way at the verrrry end of the lap. seemed fishy to me but what do i know lol.

GregV · 11-02-2008, 06:18 PM

that was one hell of an exciting race

redg2 · 11-02-2008, 07:42 PM

today was one hell of a race..it was kinda funny seeing Ferrari celebrate a lil too early, rite before Hamilton jumped to fifth and got the win

NOPSTNS · 11-03-2008, 06:36 PM

it seems interesting, last lap, last turn, last race.....but....trulli also was droppin the same amount of time. lewis deserved this years championship. ferrari knows better than to be celebrating BEFORE THE END OF THE RACE, their faces were priceless. i also think the fans were a tad rude, but they were rightfully upset i guess, they home driver seemingly having the win and championship...then lost.

and how bout that car fire?! haha

D.C. gettin tossed on the first turn was BS tho. if i was racing with a guy who was retiring after this race id be sure not to be the cause of spinning him. first turn for God's sake. ive seen DC get thrown off a track like 4 or 5 times this year. not right

OBEEWON · 11-03-2008, 08:26 PM

Yeah that really sucked. He is always graciouse though. didnt put anyone out there. He said he gave extra room in turn one too. Sad, but it really did sum up the luck in his career. Still has most points of any brit tho!

Extended video of that gif i posted in the ferrari pits...WOW

after watching timing and scoring timo was losin alot time on that last lap!! There was nothing fishy bout that at all!!! Good racing! good season! Not happy with tha stewards messing with some of tha races!! ( spa???) but hey!!
next year one motor for all?? and possiably no ferrari?

Slappy · 12-11-2008, 03:04 AM

I dont even want to remember that race or the race in Singapore. I cant wait for the 09 season with the aero changes and back to the slicks "tyres". I hope Kimi gets his **** together, after what he said in an recent interview i was surprised he's even racing in 09. To make a long story short, he said he completely lost interest half way through the season. Not good for the Tifosi.

By the way, no more Honda in F1... There had been a few rumors about it, but they made it official on Dec 5th. And now there's some thoughts that another team or two might do the same.

Yup it's a shame to see them go. They are still staying active in their other motorsport ventures.

Also the "single" engine rule passed recently. It seems that Cosworth has been commissioned to make the 2010 engines for ALL the teams. Teams will still be allowed to use their current engines but will have to be detuned.

I think that last one is crap but whatever...

RC1488 · 12-11-2008, 12:39 PM

There are so many restrictions on F1 its getting pretty ridiculous. If one part is allowed, then another part has to suffer. Huge challenge for engineers

namdoogwerdna · 12-11-2008, 01:32 PM

Looks like Honda is selling their F1 team. Wonder who it's going to...

sisforsurfing · 03-28-2009, 07:47 PM

Whooooo's ready?

jspek · 03-28-2009, 08:14 PM

olmytsi · 03-28-2009, 08:15 PM

I caught q2 and q3, didn't see Hamilton, what happened?

I got bar plans for tonight but i REALLY want to see this race at 1am.

jspek · 03-28-2009, 08:36 PM

gear box problems

olmytsi · 03-28-2009, 08:40 PM

That sux!
