heres my thot :

1. More wings - nope. This is a BIG NO NO for me? why? because with more wings it will make it difficult for cars to pass because of the turbulance created.
2. Slick - The current tyre grip is good enuf. I remember reading Sir Jackie comments on the current dry tire. He says the current generation dry tyre is very good and can be used on a slight damp track.
3. Old format - Agreed if they shortened it to 30 minutes... Oh wait? do you mean the old 1 hour quali, or the aggregated quali?
5. Tyre supplier - IINM, michelin pulls out because the hi cost of participating in F1.
6. Independant stewards - Do you know this is already in place? FIA once did take to the court of appeal against the stewards (some Ferrari case I dont remember, the FIA doesnt agree with the penalty imposed by the steward). So FIA is not the Steward. Just look at the Sport rules at the FIA website to know the composition of the stewards.
*
1. I guess you check back previous record for wings measurement. Its smallar and lesser now. Thats why they were able to follow closely lastime.
2. Bridgestone unlike Michelin isnt suitable for wet surface.
3. Old format, run as you like. No need fuel burn phase.
5. Michelin is being forced out.
6. I mean one that FIA cant mess with. If best rotated or changed every few years.

1. hmm i'm bit lost here. So you wanna lesswings (more overtaking) or more wings?
2. I thot its the other way round, particularly during schumi era.
5. IIRC, michelin didnt put a tender in to continue in F1. Bout being forced out, can you give me the source?
6. Actually, the composition of stewards changes every race.
*
1. More wings. F1 cars run with much more downforce lastime. FIA set new rules and reduce aero by taking out wings and making them smaller.
2. Intermediate was Bridgestone speciality. Dry wasnt.
5. Michelin doesnt agree with FIA mentality. FIA want cut cost, Michelin want competition to make name.

Nice 2nd half of the race. but i still dont like the shanghai track. wide, fast & boring, just like our sepang F1 track.

Great thing is WDC is still ALIVE !!!!!! lewis will have to do it the hard way to prove he's worthy. laugh.gif

and ALL HAIL VETTEL ! laugh.gif
1. more wings = less overtaking, last time they only had 2 big wings, that's why they can follow other cars better. now wings are smaller, but whole car has PLENTY of them.
2. bridgestone extreme wets are better last time. but their intermediates not as good as michelin's
3. replace Q3 with run-as-you-like would be great.
5. i don think they are being forced out
*
1. I didnt mean those back in 80's or early 90's. I think starting Schumi era, wings are more or less alike. What is different is their height, size and angle. More wings = less overtaking? Mayb I should say more downforce.
2. Bridgestone wets is good. But whats so super about Bridgestone is their inter still I think. I still remember some time back when Michelin runner have to run on wets cos their inter was totally hopeless but Bridgestone runner all on inter.

You have to see what others have done in the past, namely Senna, Prost and Schumi.

Dear thread starter,

Please change the thread title to Anti- Hamilton/McLaren V1, TQ

everytime i come in only see everyone bashing McLaren/ LH. n seldom see u guys discuss about the other teams. If possible pls set some rules for this thread (just like some other thread did), keep those cursing out from here. (somehow i dont think u will do it, because u r one of them too.)

Its annoying when i see cursing somebody like nobody business. I though our prime minister always said budi bahasa budaya kita? so this ur budaya huh? shakehead.gif

First of all, you have to understand whats has happened in F1 for the whole 2007 season.
The whole espionage sage, the punishment, and whether or not McLaren gain anything from it. All of that contributes to the whole situation thats happening, not just here, but elsewhere where there is a F1 related thread.

If there's anyone to blame for all these, it has to be McLaren. They started all this, and they do know the consequence of what they have done. This will continue for years to come before fans finally lay rest on the topic.

Anyway, I myself do hate Hamilton. I used to hate Alonso too, but I think the Hamilton has to be the most hated figure in F1 right now for the attitude he shown lately. Its just like how much I hate JV. You drive on track win le, you have the bragging right. You lose le, dont say ppl unfair. After all there is no such thing as fairness.

After MSC retired, I found myself supporting drivers rather than teams. With all the politics going on in F1, its a lot more interesting to see the drivers you support win or have a good race instead of seeing Ferrari vs McLaren battle.

If thats true (with evidence), I believe FIA should punish Ferrari as well.

For now, lets concentrate on the penultimate Brazil GP....

would you like to just sit around minding your own business as someone else spoils your name? I mean all the driver has to do is sit in a multi-million dollar car, drive around in circles, take the trophy and talk to press isn't it?

I guess you fit the bill to become Malaysia next Alex Young.
Anyone can drive but not in a F1 car.


Added on October 9, 2007, 4:12 pmBernie wasnt interested in a new champion, he want a new ENGLISHMEN champion to tackle the British market. He wants to earn pound now. Its now or never. Simple as that.
