Fyp.

The Tekno car (Jonathon Webbs car)

he's taking the piss out of Takuma sato. Takuma Whoto.

We didn't know he could be so funny... At the Australian Grand Prix Kimi Raikkonen showed that he's not the Iceman and in fact a lot more like veteran whinger Victor Meldrew. In the middle of the race he got on team radio and yelled angrily, "Why do I get all the blue flags?" To which his engineer replied: "the blue flags are for the cars behind, Kimi". So, just in case Kimi is feeling a bit rusty about the flags he might see out on the track - none of which he's taken much notice of over the years - here's a refresher. Blue Flag Meaning: You are about to go a lap down, NOT, you are about to go down on a Lap (or in a lap-dancing club) Yellow Flag Meaning: Think about slowing down. Double Waved Yellow Flags Meaning: Oh, don't bother, it's probably a lot of fuss over nothing i.e. like when Takuma Sato blew engine smoke all over the exit of Eau Rouge and you went steaming through at top speed. Orange Flag Meaning: There's oil or debris on track, or as Takuma once said, "very slippery oily stuffs" Green Flag Meaning: You must drive in an eco-friendly manner from this point on. Red Flag Meaning: Vitaly's gone off somewhere again. Red Light at End of Pitlane Meaning: In about five seconds time Lewis is going to smash into the back of you. Black Flag Meaning: Race Control has been taken over by pirates. (Normally with a number showing how many pirates) http://www.planetf1.com/features/7614078/Kimi-s-Quick-Guide-To-F1-Flags As was the case in 2011, there will only be one DRS zone in place at the Sepang International Circuit for this weekend's Malaysian GP. The detection point for the zone begins just over 200 meters before the final hairpin with the activation point as the corner is completed. As a result, drivers will be able to make use of DRS for the entire pit straight. In total, 18 overtaking maneuvers were completed using DRS at last year's race. http://www.planetf1.com/driver/18227/7615725/One-DRS-zone-in-Malaysia If you are heading to Sepang for this weekend's Malaysian GP, pack your umbrella as thunderstorms are forecast. As the rain came down in the Sepang paddock on Thursday afternoon, it was perhaps a sign of things to come for the rest of the weekend. Although the teams and drivers can expect hot conditions, with the high hovering around the 30'C mark, they can also expect rain. According to the meteorologists, thunderstorms have been forecast for all three days and are expected late in the afternoon. So expect a wet one... http://www.planetf1.com/driver/18227/7616592/Wet-weekend-expected-in-Malaysia

all those that went to the f1 gp tell use about it here. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/393220-the-motorsport-holiday-thread/
