@phantaman 'to save fernando... yes, he knew everything and possibly not be punished.' Yeah I get you hate Fernando but you don't have to have every post repeating something you have no way of proving. I think Renault are going to get a huge fine and a 5 season suspended ban, what a mess.by Sauber89 - F1
Renault are going to get destroyed imo reading Moseley's comments about how it was more serious than Mclaren 2/3 season ban or £80 million fine. What a dark day for F1by Sauber89 - F1
'Manufacturer BMW agrees to sell BMW-Sauber team to Swiss-based investment company' Thats being shown on the ticker at the top of the BBC sport website so the lotus things makes even less sense.by Sauber89 - F1

Mosley has confirmed that Piquet himself has been promised immunity from being punished over the matter, as part of the deal for him providing evidence. www.autosport.com RUBBISH!by Sauber89 - F1
Should be a very short hearing when you read that, in point 12 he mentions that he 'asked his team several times to repeat the lap number' to crash on, and I read earlier today that the fia have full radio audio files. So it shoudn't take long to clear up. but imo Piquet should be banned for life, Jackie Stewart and other safety campaigners havent spent years improving standardby Sauber89 - F1
Renault won't stay whatever happens in my opinion, to acuse a team of fixing a race is unheard of, and if proven true it's a very dark day for f1.by Sauber89 - F1
Davidson's a cock, I just can't believe the unearnt authority he constantly talks with. I hope he gets a the manor drive just to get him off air. Legard was a football correspondant for Five Live before this and its thrown him, because that job is 6 minutes of superb soundbite work which he's still good at but my word does he struggle with 90 mins. The problem with lead commeby Sauber89 - F1
Legard over relies on the pictures, he needs to be much more descriptive than for example saying 'that'll do' when Trulli went p2 in q1 in Belgium listening to classic Murray you notice how descriptive he was when there was no need, it just adds to the theatre of it. Croft did the same thing in the gp2, just didn't work as hard when he had pictures, also Croft and Davidsonby Sauber89 - F1
There's no rule against blocking your team mate before your final qualifying run but Alonso still got a 5 place grid penalty in Hungary 2007. If Piquet did deliberately crash he's beyond pathetic, but then to grass the team up nearly a year later because they sacked you, well thats a real low.by Sauber89 - F1
Yeah i think the 2008 Belgium edits the best so that's worth a look, seems odd we cant have all the team radio you hear in the edit during the race.by Sauber89 - F1
'they were going to stick with their Mclaren sponsorship (and rebrand it to their UK brand, Abbey' I doubt it the Abbey brand is disappearing at the end of the year, Fernando's going to Ferrari and it'll be cheaper to pay off a one year contract for Kimi than to pay off a 4/5 year contract for Mr Alonso.by Sauber89 - F1

Even if he's rubbish no one with any sense will care, he's got the championships, all he can do in Spain is enhance an already mega reputation. I can't believe how good this is, an on form Hamilton, a race winning Vettel racing for the first time against a 7 time world champion, fantastic.by Sauber89 - F1
Renault suspended from European GP Renault has been suspended from the European Grand Prix for the events that led to a wheel coming off Fernando Alonso's car in Hungary today. Following a post-race discussion with the stewards, it was deemed that the team had breached the regulations enough for it to be suspended from the next event. It means Alonso will miss his home event thatby Sauber89 - F1
That picture of Massa with the helmet on is quite unsettling, especially when you see the damage to the actual helmet, and Eddie Jordan really shouldn't be in front of the cameras today, flippancy with accidents just isn't on.by Sauber89 - F1
I think Davidson's a right mug, he speaks with a totally undeserved arrogance and croft's fine on 5 live effectively away from any real pressure but was dreadful with gp2, Legard's done a good job, but it just doesn't work with Brundle. I don't see why we can't follow cricket and just have ex players as the com team Brundle could easily hold his own as lead com.by Sauber89 - F1
Fantastic for Jenson, Rubens, and Brawn. Just a small point about Mario Theisson saying kubica would have won,what a load of rubbish, there were 2 laps at the end of the crash lap, with kubica not even a second a lap faster than button who was over 3 seconds away, add to that that's just catching and not passing and he looks an idiot. Best ever start to the season,i'm buzzing.by Sauber89 - F1
williams one-two that is fantastic. Even though i'm sure the session was over before naki went round again.by Sauber89 - F1
massive lol at piquet, it took him an hour and ten minutes to return to being useless.by Sauber89 - F1

channel 302 and 303 are the red button channels on freeview, i guess sky will have the same thing just an unlabeled channel number, if you can find that i think you should be able to sky plus it.by Sauber89 - F1
Yeah , i don't know why but the idea of button winning just excites me far more than any hamilton win, it'll be interesting to see how lewis copes with an average car.by Sauber89 - F1
The ferrari arrogant prick wont be fighting for a F1 title ever again. It was a "1999 eddie irvine" like year. yer i remember 99 well michael raced for every grand prix, and was totally outclassed by eddie, senna was a mess in the gp2 silverstone round in the dry.by Sauber89 - F1

Finally Legard, he is a superb commentator, fantastic news.by Sauber89 - F1
I am just amazed by how bad the BMW looks, it's looks the drawings I'd do when i was 7, everythings out of proportion, i mean seriously if they all look this stupid the sports going to get laughed at.by Sauber89 - F1
If F1 does this it's the end, whats the difference to indy car then? it's bullshit.by Sauber89 - F1
Well Jonathon Legard as commentator, is a superb idea i've long said he's the guy to do it, always thought that from the time i listened to 5 live back in 2000 when itv didnt show the race on itv 1, and i had to listen to it on there, so i'm very happy with that, Jake Humpries is a joke but as long as Brundle's kept i dont mind.by Sauber89 - F1
