F1 thread for 2012

well i'm up.......lazy option at the moment, in bed with sky on the lappy pirate feed..... i'll go and check rtl later yawnnnnnnnnnnnn

 

You missed an interesting final practice session, lazybones.

 

hahaha gimme a break i got up at 4.45 am for this

 

can confirm the rtl feed on my proper telly works so i can watch the race "legally" if i want.... however i'm watching quali in bed on skypirate on laptop lol

 

Blimey, the iceman not even into q2!

 

He cocked up that last run

Should HRT be allowed to start, mobile chicanes at the moment

 

true, but the car doesn't look good either....massa was lucky as well.

 

Alonso fail! >

 

already more entertaining with less aero grip this year.....driver skill is a bit more of a requirment....

 

Those Mercs look good.....

 

I wonder what will happen with the protest about their F duct though? Do they have spare rear wings of the old style with them?

 

Neither Ferrari makes through to Quali 3.

 

it will pass charlie whiting said it was legal - ferrari look poor oh dear..... red bull mmmmm could be an interesting first half of the season.

 

Hamilton Button Grosjean! wtf!...... Schumie did well....Red bull dominance......gone for now, time to play catch up Mr Newey.

 

I'll bet Kimi is giving himself a good kick :buttkick: for that mistake, he could have been up there as well.

 

indeed, the "lotus" looks fair, much more interesting than last year

 

got up early (ish) and watched the last 2 rounds of the sky coverage (for free on the net)

didn't think much of skys coverage and Brundle hardly got a word in

lets see if the beeb can do better later

 

I maybe a Schumie fan but Hamilton is my second favourite driver. So, congrats to him. In the right frame of mind, he's a better racer than Button IMO. I've always said that. And well done Schumie - you can see the change in expression on his face now he's got a better car. For me, the best scenario would be a Hamilton v Schumie battle for the World Title. Maybe. Just maybe. And if Schumie stands on the podium tomorrow, all the doubters, all the bashers, all the haters will disappear into thin air. They'll all jump off their bandwagon and say 'we knew he would come good in the end'. Oh how convenient. You see, anyone who doubts Schumacher really doesn't understand his psyche. The only reason he's in F1 is for an 8th World Title. I've often been ridiculed for that. But that's OK. They'll all ignorant and I forgive them.

 

how did the RTL feed match up to 5live mate? i tried RTL just to check it worked but lay in bed on sky, tomorrow for the race though i want to watch it on 'big telly' lol
