The F1 Thread

[Nando]

Its tedious, but next season should switch things up. If it doesn't I imagine a lot of people will be feeling the same way.

 

[Carrotdude]

He's not miles out in front yet but it just has the feeling of inevitability already that it won't be close, I guess we were spoiled a bit by a few very close seasons not long ago.

 

[The Bear]

47 points IS miles out in front considering the reliability of cars nowadays, and the fact he's unlikely to be out of the top 3 positions more than two or three times for the rest of the season.

 

[Carrotdude]

Thanks for taking away that straw I was clutching at

Red Bull looking untouchable at Monza :facepalm:

Alonso could be about to engrossed in a catatonic Italian shitstorm.

 

[The Bear]

Looks like it's going to be Raikkonen in and Massa out at Ferrari next year then.

 

[Kenny]

Massa has announced he will not be a Ferrari driver next year

 

[Nando]

With the hope of joining a team who can help him compete for the Championship......

Good luck with that, Felipe.

Top guy, but not at the level he was in 2008.

Swap seats with Kimi?

 

[Nando]

Lotus should be after Hulkenberg if he's not going to be going to Ferrari.

 

[Carrotdude]

I'd love to see Hulkenberg in a fast car, I think he'd be a better fit for Ferrari and Alonso than Kimi.

 

[Nando]

So do I. Ferrari are going to have two driver who have possibly three years left at the top if they take Kimi.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

If he's up to a return to F1 I think Kubica would be a great replacement for Lotus. Seems to be doing pretty well in the rallying.

 

[Nando]

He had another huge shunt today, he's fine though.

 

[Carrotdude]

Glad to hear he's back driving and doing well, I hadn't heard much about his comeback. I know he was touted as a future champion before the injury so I'd love to see him back.

 

[broughtonwolf]

There's still doubts over whether Kubica's wrist will ever have the movement or strength to allow him to return to F1, which is a shame.

We will see how it pans out with Alonso and Kimi, on paper a strong pairing but does a top end team work better with clear No 1 and No 2 drivers? It is not hard to foresee friction

 

[Kenny]

Kimi claiming he is joining Ferrari because Lotus haven't been paying him

 

[Nando]

These two are in a different league to everybody else. The consistency is incredible.

Another stroll in the park for Vettel
