is the commentating so bad that you need to mute it? i rather listen to the engine sounds and be able to laugh at the commentators when they say something stupid.

and yes, slater is hopeless.

Don't worry, we have Chris Gudwin to counter Slater's morotic speculations and predictions.
Didn't you guys listen how Chris done it?

yesterday night i wrote an e-mail to astro to complaint about the F1 commentators they are using and ask them to be replace with Martin Brundle and James Allen

just now astro called me and let me know they will ask their sport section to improve their commentators

i dun think there will be any difference

so guys, to all that are watching F1 through astro, please write an e-mail to complaint as well, hopefully the more people complaint, the more pressure there will be to replace their commentators

Better email espn@starsports since it will went straight to the commentators.

Kimi vs Alonso Comparative Onboard Lap Bahrain 2007



Look closely at the difference when they're taking the corners. Alonso seems to be using more steering compared to Kimi.

Kimi kept using his right hand (Massa too) to touch something below hmm.gif
So difficult to drive like that.

Last season also got this kind of comparisons...IMO both of them have similar driving styles.

Differ car is one thing, setup of the car is another such as camber and steering degrees.

Actually both of them have different driving styles. Alonso tends to use more of the corners than Kimi to gain a similar speed. Kimi on the other hand use to drive at a faster speed thru the corners but then not using much of the corners.. this is why Kimi's car looks as if its not turning much and looks a bit smooth when driving thru corners.
*
It seems that the F2007 so difficult to drive (the say Kimi banging the car).
Michael made it look so easy.

Yes its getting harder indeed. But then Schumi had a bad car last season, and if only he is still driving this season, he would be unstoppable biggrin.gif

Couldn't agree more.

When it's Michael, we just know that he can deliver and no drivers (no disrespect to other drivers) can stop him if he got a fast car.

Well, for me i dont really get a heart-attack or something similar, i admit that my heart pump faster when the team i support is going on offense or on defense.. the start of the race is also very intense.. but what is most important is the chase between the cars, which i like the most, the mistakes they make, the fantastics takeover they do...

This season will be tough for all teams. All teams are very competitive, the proof that Hamilton going up the podium and the BMW Sauber team on the chase all mean that this season no team is to say that they are for sure to clinch the WCC or the WDC.. Lewis maybe.. tongue.gif
*
mistakes...when the rival team makes... rclxms.gif
But suxx if it's our team tongue.gif

hmmm....if Lewis won the WDC...he's the youngest ever correct?
Youngest ever WDC and rookie.
A lot of title in his hands now.

1st, he need to beat Massa...looks to me Massa is the one to beat...as a Ferrari driver I mean.
Kimi...we'll see his progress till mid of the season.

If he wins another GP without Massa screwing up...then both Ferrari drivers are game on.

Thank god for that.

That incident, why the hell did all the cars move?
The race was not started yet (listen to the commentator) doh.gif
I think that's why the mechanic went in to check on the car, he thought it was safe.

Raikkonen full of confidence after test

QUOTE

A bullish Kimi Raikkonen has warned Ferrari's rivals that he and the Italian team are in much better shape for the rest of the season after making a set-up breakthrough in testing at Barcelona this week.

Despite crashing in the rain on Tuesday afternoon, Raikkonen has dominated the testing times so far this week and he believes modifications to the F2007 have increased its overall speed and made him much more confident with its handling.

"We've learned a lot," said Raikkonen after returning to the pits following his small off at Turn 3, where he just kissed the tyre barriers without suffering any major damage.

"You never know what the others are doing, but for the race we are more confident. The car feels very good here, so let's wait and see what happens."

Raikkonen is most happy with his own personal confidence in the car, having faced a stronger than expected challenge from teammate Felipe Massa in the first three races of the year.

"I found a better set-up for myself and the car seems to be handling the way I want now," said Raikkonen. "I think we are in a much stronger position now.

"(The championship) started three races ago, but the points are very close and nothing has been lost so far. It is important to have good races now. We have a good package, I have got a better setup and I am much happier than in the first three races. I think it is good."

Raikkonen confessed that he had not been happy with certain characteristics of the car in the first races of the campaign, and knew that only proper testing would help him overcome the issues.

"The car was good and getting better, but it was never quite right," he said. "I was not happy after qualifying in Melbourne and the same in Malaysia. We knew the problem but we could not do anything between the races. But finally we found something, which is definitely better for me."

Raikkonen believes the improvements should help keep the team ahead of McLaren at the Spanish Grand Prix - although he is unsure exactly how much of an advantage they currently have.

"I think we have improved a lot since the last race, and we understand the car more. That is the main thing. Sure we want to win the race and we will see what we can do, but I am now much happier going into the race than the last couple of events

"We have found something which is definitely much better for me. I think we can use the full potential of the car now."
