Formula 1 season to be one of the most exciting in years

[EtUL]

Wish Kimi could have gotten Vettel but a pretty good race anyway. Certainly better than last year so far.

DC leaving during the Forum because he left his purse and ipad somewhere is hilarious

[EtUL]

Also motogp is p. boring now but moto2 is fuckin' awesome.

You draw this conclusion from just a single race?

3 races in and it's held true for each one so far...motogp is a parade...snorefest

moto2 was a thriller again.

[EtUL]

Look even Colin Edwards agrees: https://twitter.com/#!/texastornado5/st ... 8876268544

One more question: (pain meds induced) Are all motoGP races as boring as that one today? Moto2 & 3 kicked ass!!!

[Eraser]

Nah you just need to ignore the top 3 spots. That's Stoner, Lorenzo and Pedrosa riding like they're queuing up in a traffic jam.
Gotta admit that yesterday's race was boring, but Jerez had some good moments. Haven't seen Qatar tbh.

Oh, and Edwards thinking it was boring is obvious: he wasn't there

[losCHUNK]

2 things -

1. I own at predictions

2. we need a motogp thread, or we could start comparing gp2 / touring car / DTM or Usain Bolt to F1 aswell

[EtUL]

what did you predict exactly?

[losCHUNK]

that vettel wouldnt improve and that webber would out do him this season (2 races ago I think)

need the lotto numbers ?

[Tsakali]

uhm vettel just won this last race and is leading in points.

[losCHUNK]

do you need them fucking lotto numbers ?

[Tsakali]

sure, if only to make sure I don't use those numbers.

[losCHUNK]

u jelly ?

- certified daddy of predicting the prediction of predictions

[Nightshade]

Oh, and Edwards thinking it was boring is obvious: he wasn't there

Where was he? Off running over someone else's head?

That's what I read in your last post, but like tsakali said he just won. Leading the championship and 5 pts above his team mate even with the fuck up in Malaysia so...

All of your other predictions are wrong or spurious but it doesn't matter, what else are you predicting this season?

Look at this moron...it was Rossi who hit his head.

no shit sherlock

Think everything I said before may hold true but Vettel will probaly do a little better than I gave him credit for :P. I still expect Merc to drop down (fighting it out with Ferrari towards the end of the season) with Red Bull and Mclaren topping it, those 2 teams have always made a car better through the course of a season where Ferrari in recent years hasnt, same with Brawn tbh as great as he is. Still think Hamilton will win it, his last 2 races have been plagued by pitstops so god knows what the points table would say if they werent, best thing about it is that he kept his calm and didnt hit Massa during any of it

Uh, it's you that's the moron because it was Edwards who hit Simoncelli. Rossi could steer around him at the last moment.

[EtUL]

Edwards hit him in the back, Rossi took off his helmet.

Watch the slow mo at the end, you can see Rossi's front wheel hop up when he hits Sic's helmet and it sets off his wicked tankslapper. Steer around him, he did not.

I don't really want to drag it out but if you still disagree there's still photos from the front that show this as well. I've already seen them once though, not really wanting to see them again.

[Nightshade]

Colin Edwards, now known as Valentino Rossi.

Seriously, I hadn't examined the crash in minute detail, the first time I saw it it looked pretty plain that it was Edwards that hit Simoncelli. I still don't think Rossi ran over his helmet, although I can see from the footage why you might think that. The link you just posted doesn't seem to prove it definitively, IMO.

[EtUL]

Hit his helmet, not ran over. He ran over his arm likely. I never said he ran over his head. Since we have to hash this out:



I'm not sure how his helmet came off exactly but Edwards bike is clearly in his back there, Rossi hits him somewhere around the head/shoulder area and runs over his arm it appears. That's all I meant to say, didn't really want to go thru this.

[EtUL]

Anyway...F1 Catalunya

[Tsakali]

these fucking 3 week gaps really suck

MotoGP boring? I think not. Today's race at Le Mans was pretty exciting.

[GONNAFISTYA]

I did three laps of the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve on my mountain bike yesterday.

Sounds more hardcore :]

I'm getting the lower classes now and waiting for GP but my first question would be: Was it wet?

Don't get me wrong here, I still enjoy watching some of the best riders on the fastest bikes and I could watch Stoner ride around some circuits all day. They're just too good so we don't see as much action on track as say, WSBK where the front runners are making mistakes all the time. I've been watching qualifying to see them punch out the fast laps.
