he got more grip out wide though, built up shitloads of momentum off the track, dodgey imo seeing as hamilton is getting buttfucked for gaining an advantage for going off track... and when hamilton went cross country he gave back half corners worth of ground before kimi span it, which shouldve complied more than enough for the 'give position back' rule, and i cant see how he couldnt of cut the chicane though, kimi forced him to the point of no road on a track thats like a skid pan, if i go into mclaren fanboy mode id say he had the racing line anyway

imo, put the fucking gravel traps back, thatll cut this shit out :up:

Only a series of radical changes of the rules, perhaps putting crocodiles on the court, will make this game worth watching. Imo of course.

:olo:

Actually...putting crocodiles in the corners could warn drivers where the "marbles" are. They could be a safety feature.

So I'm trying to get into F1. I just have a few questions;

I know the engine has to be a 2.4 V8 NA. But each team builds their own motor to their own specification? I mean, are there any other regulations than the motor being the 2.4 and V8? Each team's motor must have different bhp as well? Someone please elaborate.

The Singapore night race was just awesome. :up:

This much I know. There are no more private engine builders in F1. All teams have their engines supplied by major car manufacturers, which currently include Ferrari, BMW, Honda, Toyota, Renault, and Mercedes. As such, there are definitely variations in BHP figures between the engines (this has always been the case in F1 in fact).

Yes, the Singapore race was good, but I hope they won't over do it as many are now wishing (i.e., there shouldn’t be too many night races).

i thought it was good, overtaking was a bit of a whore though, think if it wasnt for massas entertainment i wouldve found it somewhat tiresome, but being a streetrace what do you expect ?

cars looked good under lights tho :up: :up:

I was surprised at how much I liked the venue, in spite of the results. That's what, the third or fourth time Massa's crew has boned him this season? He was running away with the race, too.
Rosberg's pass on Trulli was nothing short of awesome, he drove an awesome race and it was great to see him score a podium.

The Japanese grand prix is live on TV here at 4.30am all the way through to 7.30am. Call me mad, but I'm gonna stay up and watch it. :) Well, assuming I don't fall asleep.

Coulthard smashed his car up within the first 30 seconds. Hamilton got a bad start from his poll and was then in 6th. Massa then went onto the grass and as he came back on, tapped lewis and made him spin, putting lewis right at the back of the pack in 18th. They're investigating it. 53 more laps to go though.
