This saga is like a stuck CD! Yes then no then yes then no you get what I mean. Honda want their money and now the baseball bat and stand over tactic's. Fry's bullish tactic's are a bit over the top considering they have a glimmer of hope with the Weigl Group and as WIMS mentioned how does Honda have the power to do this. The field is getting smaller and soon all we'll have is the boring factory teams with about ten cars on the grid. The FIA has to step in and sort out these issues regarding the Concorde agreement and the costs of racing in F1. As it is at the moment no one want's to commit serious money other than the factory teams and 'Red Bull'. Thank god for them!
It''s inevitable that Webber will win not only a race but even a world championship given the right circumstance. He is currently one of the top three or four drivers on the grid and Red Bull will come good. He''s got so much experience and race knowledge that is invaluable to the sport and Jones understands that with his comments. He''s one guy that has done the really hard yards in the sport and has been seriously unlucky in his carrer with bad timing team selection, realiability and racing incidents. If he sticks with Red Bull and visa versa he will get there sooner than later.
Merc's in real life are generally heavy and hard on tyres. I think McLaren have to look at their rim supplier more so than Bridgestone scratching their head trying to work out why. Especially after Heikki's accident at Spain last race. The other teams seem to work well with the tyres and no problems with marrying them to their rims. As the others have posted it is good for the tyre manufacturer to stay impartial and for Bridgestone to go the extra mile for McLarens woes. It might be time to standardise the rim also.
Sutil should be starting to show improvment by now but crashing into other drivers with obvious driving errors and lack of control and concentration has nothing to do with luck. The car is realiable and he should be used to driving at the back of the pack but to me he is getting worse not better so far with force india. He was a better driver at spyker and I really find it hard to believe that McLaren and Williams were even considering him. Mallay should really consider Karthakeyan or even Chandahook as a replacement even before this season ends if there is no improvement. There's already to many Germans on the grid anyway. Spice it up Force India!
He''s no Kimmi or Alonso yet but would certainly out drive Massa anyday in equal machinery. He''s alot smoother and more consistant than his first one and a half seasons and has come leaps and bounds since BMW have become a force. He has a bright future in F1 and it''s hard to beleive Heidfeld is getting four times the money he is. I hope BMW give him a good bonus considering what''s unfolding this season.
By all reports so far all is well with Heikki and we should see him on the grid at Istanbul. I agree with the others and wish him well as it would ashame if he misses any races as Kubica did last season. This would also detrement his fight for the world championship wich he has a good chance of getting with a McLaren machine.
The Nick Fry Honda conspiracy theory might well be true. Honda want SA gone so they wont be embarassed by their little brother on the grid and then it wont matter how bad Honda are then. Nothing to be compared too therefore Nicks job is safer.
So PAUL P your saying it's a Nick Fry Honda conspiracy and they are trying to drive them out of F1 because Honda has been dismal in recent years and Super Aguri had been moving forward until this season. mmmm very interesting! If that's the case I hope they actually claw their way out of this hole and get firmly back on the grid.
FOOKHEAD does anybody like you in real life as your postings on Crash are quite sick and disturbing.
GPFANATIC you must be an F1 greedy German. No offense! I'm a F1 greedy person too as I can't get enough F1. This sport will never expand succesfully out of Europe unless there is more of a mix of nations represented in the team driver line ups.
RICH ARD I have good sense of humour when something is actually funny but what you posted is stupid not funny. I suppose you think your personal abuse directed at me is funny too. Keep it up as I love bagging your posts and showing how shallow and un humerous your jokes and postings usually are are. RYAN it's typical of the Spanish GP to be a boring race. This one was actually a bit more exciting than usual beleive it or not.
Relax Mallya this isn''t IPL twenty twenty it''s Formula one and this is only your first season. Sutil has been a shocker so far this season and Fisi OK! You should have gone with Ralf & Fisi in your first season then work your way into the ten and then get someone like Sutil after that in about 3yrs. You should be happy with anything from 15th downwards at this stage. Oh those Indians are so excitable.
This time I agree RICH ARD it's a bloody boat so why is it on car racing site. Oh yeh Ferrari is owned by Fiat hence the people that made this motor pretty much control how F1 is governed and theres the link. What a waste of cyber space!
Good on Red Bull for giving another kid a go at F1. A few of the other bigger teams should take a leaf out of their book and do more for the up and comers and the sport. You never hear of Ferrari or McLaren doing this lately and if they have we don''t hear about it as much as Red Bull. Crash a monthly summary article of who''s giving who a go would be great reading for us.
He sounds like a humble pleasant man. Initially I thought he was over rated and seemed to give up when things wearn''t perfect on the car. Or the race wasn''t going accordingly but lately he''s shown his real fighting spirit and reading this article and finding out more about him has given me much more respect for him. Good story!
RICH ARD yes I do remember but if their clever with todays technology when the reserve fuel is activated a loss of say 10-20% of power kicks in and that way it becomes fair play and the car gets back to the pits or ambles behind the safety car until the pit lane re-opens.
