Nothing much, just a normal game(F1 challenge 2005) with steering wheels as control.
Everyone was crashing, and when it was my turn, I wondered how did the crash??

3 people got the fastest laps, 4th including me, and we're all grown ups.
Most others are kids.
The biggest bummer is that, you're playing a Renault.

1st time palying a racing game with the steering wheel, I think I'll buy 1.

nice driving from the F1 drivers during the qualifying. the super agurri is clearly a surprise package. they sure improve a lot time around. we sure going to have a hell of a race tomorrow.

Yes, I was able to catch the repeat.
GOod drive by Raikkonen.

And that was the last F1 I'll get and I can't watch anymore in 3 months.

Actually, that was proved by McLaren wit the MP4-18. Not oni did it not race at all, it didn't pass the crash test!! Millions of (testing and racing) km vs thousands of (testing) km, and in terms of safety, MP4-17D vs MP4-18, the clear winner is (or rather was) the former!! Too bad I gave up on them since they announced they're gonna hire that ape n when Kimi announced the most anticipated announcement into the Ferrari team. Despite that, I'll still watch over my ex-fav team, just to hope Lewis will shame that ape.

Sato might be light on fuel, or maybe he's on the soft compound, so somehow, I feel Anthony will beat him eventually in the race. W/e it may be, Kimi ftw!!

hey mate watch your words.... too racist.... i'm reporting you to the mods!

back to topic... good job by hamilton !

dont you all think BMW Sauber is much improve this year.. 3rd and fifth.. i never thought the team can go as far as this early in the season. however it still depend on tomorrow race. the car need to be fast. and it is also important that the car to be tough right? last tow season we have McLaren as the fastes car but still the main problem the car is not so tough.

cant wait for tomorrow race. need to get up early laa at 10.am. haha.. btw tv2 commentator cant comment..

Spyker is trying to get the Super Aguri banned for tomorrow's race. and I don't blame them really. Even the Torro Rosso was quite better than the Red Bull.
The loser IMO was Massa. I was sure he could (and should) have gotten the pole
My prediction: McLaren uses the Semi-Soft compound during the start of the race, and went for a long stint. Kimi meanwhile start on the same tyre, but for a shorter (2 laps maybe) than the Macca, and both will then use the soft compound. The McLaren will then try to take advantage with a lower fuel during this stint, while the BMW's will hold up Massa, who has risen up through the field. This will take Fisico into the race and he will pass massa at the end
End result
McLaren 1-2 (Fernando or Lewis, both seems equally fast), Kimi 3rd (or 2nd, depend on his drive), both BMW Sauber 4th and 5th, and then Fisico

I heard the commentators on Astro saying that the Ferrari's front wheels are put much closer to the front compared to others. What do you think about that? Any pics to compare?

Longer wheelbase?
Probably for better braking stability and to make it more stable in fast corners.

Confirmed, longer wheelbase. Don't have pictures but I have the measurements.
For the 248 F1, it was 3050mm, now the F2007 has 3135mm.

eh... i wonder y toro rosso not in the race this time? wat happen to the team???

besides i feel quite funny when watching the top 3 guys taking on a medical car to the way to the podium... the reporters kept chasing the car... n im surprised of wat sato did for his team... at last the team shines!!!

how am i racist?
i was critisizing the language not the race
please watch ur eyes before reporting

this year so funny, we got the so called earth car .... then super aguri faster than honda ...... but i think the best is still RALF saying himself is the 3rd best driver.

oh what happened to the commentators from ITV ?????? the local commentator is crapping all the way tru qualifying ... what a disaster ...... i wan martin brundle back !!!!!!!

Yeah.
Overtake those Mecca's.

Sato in top 10?
hehe...

Ferrari gamble using new car and not last years car which was very competitive.
I guess they know what they're doing.

On what grounds? Aguri car is completely legit right
it's a shame if they want to beat others by getting them banned. Spyker isn't all that top team or experienced team anyway.

BTW, i think Kimi stands an equal chance of winning, depending of Ferrari's pace. He did complained the car did not handle as well as he wanted to, but nevertheless, it has good pace in it.

Oh boy, i wish Ross was still around. his strategy had won michael many race in harder times where their car isn't the fastest on track

if I'm not mistaken, it is longer than the older ferrari car, but when compare to others, its not that much longer, since ferrari had always have shorter base in the pass...

With a longer wheelbase, they are trading off agility for stability. Just hope it works.
But a stable car can give the driver more confidence when they want to push it to the max. They can even play around with the aero more now that their car has a stabler platform.

You've nvr watched any animes, do you? Try watch one original Japanese dub with English subtitles, and compare it wit a Malay dubbed. Tbh, I'd rather watch unsubbed animes than watching Malay/English dub, after watching quite a number of them, I've gotten the hang of it and sort of "understand" Japanese through their expression, something absolutely missing from Malay/Eng dub.

F1's best left with the orig commentator at ITV. They hv passion n technical knowledge (one of them is an ex-F1 driver actually), while ours just blabber nonsense: "Yah.......bagaikan Mat Rempit yg saya nmpk mlm smlm, begitu lajunya kereta kuda merah lalu di depan mata saya. Hebat benar Kimi, meninggalkan Alonso seperti perlumbaan cahaya dgn bunyi, sudah tentu kite tau siapa yg akn menang......eh, apakah yg sedang terjadi itu...nmpknya asap putih berkepul-kepul keluar drp kereta Alonso!! Aduh, mesti sedih bagi pemuda Sepanyol itu.....bersemarak hatinya ingin berjuang demi pasukan yg baru die memandu tahun ini........"

Just my wishful thinking!! GAMBARE!!! KIMI RAIKKONEN-SAMA!!!

@Raikkonen
Can I rip ur siggy? It's soo cool1!!!!!

Im using PPmate though, need window media player 10 to play nicely.
Anyways, where will be ITV commentors comment in ?
starsports or ESPN ?

Most welcome

Check out his new web site.
Not much but quite cool.
Love those designs on his helmet

Supa aguri is still last season's car, which the team DID NOT build themselves (who are they kidding really?). The rule state that teams must build the chassis themselves (including R&D), unless the car is built by a third party builder (which Red Bull and Tollo Losso uses this loophole).

Teh Fellalli IS longer than the other teams this season, which is why ppl are saying that they knew something about the bridgestone that other teams have no idea about. The reason other teams are using shorter version this season are because they felt that the new Bridgstone will be too much of a low grip.

On ITV channel of course
starsports have their own commenter
RTM2 suppose to have from ITV. Something went wrong yesterday. Not the first time though. Hope they fix it soon... ITV so much better than starsports, they interview drives who end the race early, and often have lots of info we don't see on TV. RTM commentor should just remain silent

Hmm... i don't know then about aguri, since they are indeed a new team, though in the past I think there are people who buy over older team and use their cars of course... aguri did not buy over of course...

But its really strange for a newcomer to suddenly go attacking other teams lol. They certainly aren't making any friends now...
