I so wanted Button alongside Webber at Williams...the next best thing is to see Button at McLaren. My 10c is he will fail. Not because he wasnt a good driver....but he has been in the middle/back of the field too long and wouldnt know what to do with a competitive car. ie Fisi. I think Webber is in a similar postiion...as soon sa you accpet the car is poor and stop trying to bridge the gap to the car in front of you then i think you keep telling yourself "its the car" and stop beign honst with yourself.

Well Webber must be looking at Rosberg in the Williams & kicking himself. Keke's young bloke has come good this year. McLaren have an interest, but Williams won't budge.

It will be more than interesting to see who Ron Dennis picks up if Alonso gets given the arse.

If you think about the list of drivers:

Massa - Maybe. Think of the Ferrari info he would bring with him.

Kimi - Hmmm.

Rosberg - Maybe.

Wurz - No.

Button - Maybe.

Rubens - No.

Schumacher & Trulli - No.

Fisi & Kov - No & no.

BMW boys - maybe....

Red Bull - Webber - maybe, Coulthard - no.

Spyker, Super Aguri & Torro Rosso - No. Although Davidson occassionally shines.

In all, not much choice. You'd have to say, (in no particular order) Rosberg, Massa, Button, Kubica, Heidfeld (Nah, not with Ron) & Webber.

He needs experience, a good temperament & of course, speed.

Vote 1 Webber for McLaren. He'll beat Lewis.

How do I know? Simple:

1) Hamilton is English.

2) Webber is Australian.

3) Formula 1 racing is a sport.

4) Australia whoops England at every sport they play.

Therefore, if Lewis is leading this season, he is the best driver. If Webber is Australian, therefore better than Hamilton, then he will become the best driver.

Logical, right?

....anyone have Ron's email?

Oh, but if he does go to McLaren, then, being Australian, we have to claim the whole team as ours. Kind of like Phar Lap and Russel Crowe. Ron Dennis becomes "Denno" Lewis Hamilton becomes "Hammo" and De La Rossa becomes "Bullet head". Just because.

The new car also gets a makeover, with the new McLaren sporting a decal of "Fuzzy dice" near the rear view mirrors, and also "SANDMAN" on the rear wing.

Yes, I'm that bored.

All spot on. but I would also add:

5) webber has a massive manly schumacher-esque jaw. hamilton has a pussy jessica alba-esque jaw.

I've always wanted to see webber in a drive at Big Mac. I think he could really do some good there.

It will be more than interesting to see who Ron Dennis picks up if Alonso gets given the arse.

If you think about the list of drivers:

Massa - Maybe. Think of the Ferrari info he would bring with him.

haha.

I reckon webber would make a great team mate to hamilton. he is a very experience racer. has as level head. certainly not a prima donna like alonso and I'm sure he could deal with hamilton being the favourite and just get on with the job of driving the race car.

mate, weather in Tokyo and weeather in Shizuoka - where Fuji speedway is can be very different.

This should give a better picture.

I agree this could throw the cat amongst the pigeons......EXCELLENT! :no::(:rofl:

Hopefully it will be somewhat reminiscent of Hill spanking Schumacher in the wet at Suzuka all thsoe years ago.

Except with a bit less water.

And a different circuit.

And Hamilton in place of Hill.

And everyone else in place of Schumacher.

Yeah, so not the same at all, really.

Hamilton's fast lap was on a vapours, he did his hot lap then dived back into pits immediately on the softer compound. Anyways... my prediction is an Alonso retirement, a Ferrari win and Lewis wins the title. I dont want that to happen, but thats my guess.

oh and LOL... if anyone gets the footage of Yamamoto almost taking out Rubens its possibly F1's most idiodic moment this year, its apparently worth a watch

Edited by ctjet

sorry guys...as an ex adelaidean living in tokyo i understand your predicament...buuuuuttt...

well i guess i have to stay away from the keyboard around 3pm tomorrow!! ct, you need to add SAU to that list of things to stay away from. :ninja::P

im looking forward to my surrogate GP...and i sincerely hope LH sews it up here. Love the guy, best driver to come along since MS.

GO LH!! im rootin for you mate! show that worthless ignominious spaniard what the score is.

The little prat is at it again..

LOL...trying to play A Grade and mind games with Alonso. We saw how well that worked for him last time round! Come on Alonso, win this weekend with LH beign taken out in turn 1 by a fast starting Massa :ninja:

LH on pole, you little beauty!! clinched it in the dying seconds, well done son. Show that dirty sanchez what the score is.

Because of NR's engine failure Webbo's been promoted to 7th and #gasp# Button to 6th!!

nice to see young Vettel put tht TR in 8th, that was unexpected for sure.

Tomorrows going to be a cracker i can feel it, Japan always is!

Baron, im kinda glad i get to watch it from the comfort of home...dont know if i can bear another drenching, like suzuka 2 years ago...

this is bloody funny!! as if RS's season couldnt get any worse... :worship::(:)

"Ralf Schumacher is having a miserable time at the moment. Things are not going well with Toyota. There does not seem to much interest for his future - even in DTM - and now Ralf has People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) after him for hunting deer in Serbia. Ralf was sent a letter by the world's largest animal rights group telling him that he should have more respect for animals.

"We hope that, in the future, you will follow the fine example of your brother, Michael," the organisation wrote, "not only with regard to winning races but also with regard to being kind to animals."

The organisation added that "we ask that if you do badly in this upcoming race, as you did in Italy, you use a punching bag or another inanimate object to take out any frustration you may feel and be decent enough to leave animals out of it."
