you know what will happen don't worry lol Yeah like I knew what was going to happen in Monaco... oh wait I don't watch F1 to know who wins but who performs well ! Vettel is going to lead the show tomorrow, Maldonator and Grosjean could be good surprises as well ! And we'll probably have either round 2 for "Raikkonen vs Mercedes" or "Raikkonen vs Bottas : who's the definitive Flying Finn ?" or both.

Last season Red Bull Ring was one if not the only F1 Grand Prix where dress code was festive atmosphere, F1's biggest lack ! Hope it'll be a good weekend this year !

NOOOOOOO Kimi !!! I thought the dumb decisions era was done for Ferrari ? He even did a relapse when talking to SkySports, only saying single-worded sentences to the journalists !

I actually enjoyed that, shame Williams couldn't hold it together though.
RANT WARNING! So annoyed at first lap incident. So, lotus take each other off and Alonso tries to avoid, takes jenson off. Now. Slow it down really slow and look carefully. They were blamed for being too aggressive (probably were) but pastor had a 'tank slapper'. No. Spent 10mins arguing with my dad about this until he finally saw it. What caused the incident? Slow it down and pause it if you have too. The SRT (max I assume) runs to the outside, his tyre hits pastor's tyre, which pushes him out wide into his team mate and the problems result from that. Yeah it's difficult to see, but after they watch it many many times these 'professionals' still cant see. Stupid, take a look.

They've just mentioned that it was a Red Bull that caused it on Ted's Notebook, Kvyat supposedly. If you're watching on BBC that's why they don't see it, they're as useful as a chocolate fireguard. The only opinion you can take seriously is Eddie Jordan's and he's lost a vast majority of his marbles...

Williams always suck when it's down to strategy. I remember almost every GP last year they kept Bottas or Massa out for the one lap too many. Today it was from start to finish. One day they'll loose a championship because of it if they don't do something. But if you think they screwed it take a look at Ericsson's race

Bloody Will Stevens, that guy is a bum. He's quicker than Merhi but that's not an accomplishment. If I were Manor, I'd get Sergei Sirotkin (good results in GP2 and sponsors) and Nobuharu Matsushita (free Honda engines).

Oh no dude, I was nodding my head until those 'famous last words' 'Free. Honda. Engines.' Nope Chandok need to come back, I liked him

Merhi went off track and was still ahead. Didn't watch the Manor race. (Wow Platinum on GT6 Ninji )

stevens made a pt stop but the team weren't ready. According to him that's what lost him the race, not him limping over the line with no nose lol. (on the subject of noses, I've seen some horrible designs in my time, but that new force india package takes the mick, it's like a little piggy lol).
I think best interview goes to Alonso from yesterday though. 'This race will be bad. Next will be worse. Monza will be even worse, then worse' haha, brilliant

I already had the platinum, it was just today that I actually managed to do the Senna Lotus at Brands for Gold to get the Senna Master. Still can't do the RBX2010 at Goodwood though.
Honda giving Manor engines (maybe not free) would help them a lot. You get a second customer team running the package then you can get the issues sorted sooner. If you guarantee Manor the same package as McLaren then at least they have an up-to-date engine, not a 2014 engine in a modified 2014 car.

Still, I've seen a lot of stupid things in my life, but the Ron Dennis interview with Martin Brundle takes the biscuit. Eddie Jordan made a statement (which I have echoed, and I'm willing to bet millions of others have) have the McLaren management are arrogant and need to go. Ron then refers to Eddie as the 'Village Idiot.'
Funny, don't remember Eddie being the one describing the Honda power engine as a work of art, a piece of jewellery and that it would be competitive from the first round of the season.
I miss Martin Whitmarsh so much, that guy was a boss in comparision to Retard Ron and Fat Eric...

what? I missed that one, dennis said that? What eddie said was true, yeah the engine isn't working but McLaren are being too cocky. Whitmarsh sucked lol, all McLaren did and end of the day, EJ is loved and respected by everyone. Dennis had money to help him, if you want to look at real team management, Eddie is the most intelligent man in the paddock

Exactly, it's on the Sky Sports website if you want to see it, but watching and listening to bullshit flowing forth from Dennis' mouth is never an appealing prospect. Whitmarsh wasn't that good, but compared with what they have now? Dennis speaks in riddles, and is it just me or was Eric Boullier's English better when he was winning races at Lotus? The old 'I pretend I don't speak the language so I can avoid these difficult questions' defence... It's like Arai from Honda, who only does interviews for Japanese media...

interviews. Wasn't DC's grid walk embarrassing? I mean, you have legends, surtees, stewart, probably moss et etc there, who would be great to talk to and happily do it. Yet he does the same old crap. Button's response summed it up 'you're interviewing me AGAIN?' lol

WHAT ? Just learned there's no career mode in Codemasters' F1 2015 ! I was about to crack and buy it day one but that makes the decision a lot more easier. And to think we had to go though crappy F1 2014 for this result. Appalling game in sight, captain !

I'm pretty sure it's because of their cheesy TV-like cutscenes and stuff, makes a lot more work to animate a custom driver I guess and probably others things too (vocal commands,...). But that is a deal breaker for me. I'll wait until the game is really cheap. Which may occur rather quickly, in the forums I see A LOT of people are disappointed by this decision. And that's without taking in account the poor people who will find out once the disc is in the console... I was really expecting this game, the pill is hard to swallow. Metal Gear can't come quick enough now...

right, so, what exactly will the game have? online and single race as a real driver? I found the career mode was poor, a marussia winning then I go straight to Ferrari lol. But not having that is appaling
