i know the title may seem a formality, but i'm not so sure. dunno why, but i've got a feeling that theres one more twist left in this years championship. no idea what it might be, but i think somethings going to happen.by marwood82 - F1

uploaded a few of mine. I tend to get get snap happy at Gp's, i finally invested in a digital camera for this years, ended up with almost an entire 1 gig card full. (most of which were pretty rubbish as the zoom isn't the best)by marwood82 - F1

agreed. it's dangerous, it risks an accident and needs to be stamped out. (to be fair to him , hamilton isn't the only one who does it, its just that being at the front he's the one everyone noticed doing it on sunday) but there are other rules where they always seem to take the black and white approach, that given difficult driving conditions a bit of common sense would see fby marwood82 - F1
The vettle/Webber collision, was caused by Lewis hitting the brakes, the video shows that quite, clearly. he was very lucky to get away unpunished with that. however, his comments regarding Webber, i kind of see where he's coming from. i thought something similar when watching the race. in the laps prior to the accident Webber was constantly very close to the back of him (and beforeby marwood82 - F1

Based on the FIA’s statement I don’t think Mclaren can have many complaints. unfortunately exactly who knew what and when is something that i doubt we'll ever know. It would have been better if this had been a public hearing, then at least all the evidence would be out there for everyone to see and so would have put a stop to a lot of the continuing speculation. with regards Lewisby marwood82 - F1
i agree theres a bit of arse covering going on, but i really don't think its quite the watergate style coverup that some seem to be suggesting. lets not forget that the press have been trying to stoke up this 'alonso and hamilton at war' stuff since monaco. now its finally errupted in the way they've been waiting for, i doubt they're going to let little things likeby marwood82 - F1
Lol! Lewis was only five metres behind Fernando! I can imagine the carnage! you say that but something similar happend at a club race i was at a few years back. cars were lining up to leave the paddock one ran into the back of another and the mechanic who was standing with the one that was hit ended up with a broken arm. not a life threating disaster i know, but unpleasant for the guy invby marwood82 - F1
with regard to williams's Frentzen connection, i'm sure i remember at the time, Frank actually wanted him to partner Hill for the rest of 94 after Senna's death, but then Wendlinger had his big accident in the following race weekend so Williams and Frentzen felt it wouldnt be right for him to leave the Sauber under those circumstances.by marwood82 - F1
lol, if michael bay had been invloved i think a few more cars would have been damaged. "In hindsight, Schumacher probably ran Nigel S. over because he whispered on the radio about joining Honda!!" or maybe stepneys able to hold grudges for longer than most womenby marwood82 - F1
yes, the scenario i suggested would have taken a big mistake from someone but in tense situations like that, mistakes happen. (for example albers incident in france or schumacher running over stepney etc) at the end of the day, messing about in the pitlane with mechanics and other personel in close attendance puts people at risk.by marwood82 - F1
not potentially dangerous? are you having a laugh? what about the mechanics? the lollypop went up(telling him to go) and he didn't move. at the end of the day the opinion of the only people that matter in all of this(the race stewards) was that alonso deliberatly impeded hamilton(hence the penalty). ie he or his race engineer were the only people who knew what was going on.(i thinkby marwood82 - F1
The last 2 years i've rather liked alonso but this season i've lost a lot of respect for him, he's done nothing but throw his toys out of the pram when things don't go his way. He hasn't got the doormat for a team mate he was expecting, and boy does he want the world to know he's not happy about it. You answer people by your actions on the track, not by moaningby marwood82 - F1
first post for a long time, and as everyone else seems to have had a go, here's my 2 pence worth, Part of the conditions of entry to formula one is that a team is responsible for the actions of its employees a mclaren employee was in possesion of confidential documents belonging to ferrari. This was a breach of the regulations, therefore the team has to answer a charge. Inby marwood82 - F1
I've got one. never tried it with GP4 as my installation is screwed up, but i now never run rfactor without it. Very easy to use, doesnt hit performance too much either i would highly recommend it. works great with flight sim 2004 too!by marwood82 - Grand Prix 4
