2008 F1 Season

[Beer Baron]

oh hamilton. you make it so easy to hate you. I'm realising i've been right all along. you really are just another wanker who through years of practice has learnt how to steer a car well. whoop-de-fucking-doo.

I cant wait for the quote of the weekend from Hamfisted . I wonder what its going to be this week?

Perhaps ... "My cocksuredness means that i know i should win the WDC. Even if i dont win, i know i should... which means i have been right all along. I am the greatest driver"

not on current form

He has the most fastest laps, was in the hunt at Spa. If Singapore turns on the 30deg weather then i cant see Heikki getting in front of Massa, but i can see Kimi beating both Macs

[BezerkR32]

you never know, it might rain and Webber might qualify 1st, only to finish 8th, thats if your mate doesnt try to run him off the road again.

i think ferrari having tyre warming issues may cause them some grief here. If it infact does rain during the weekend, it will compound their problems

[Duncan]

hahaha compound their tyre issues.

that's good gear

[sh@un]

the future banning of tyre warmers is another good step for racing, says me

I can tell you otherwise...

On the corner at the end of the raffles back straight, I was there today with my cousin.. That bitumen was hot, I mean we could walk on it bare foot, but it was rather unpleasant... Pleanty of heat for the fez to warm their rubber... Speaking to you live from Singapore.. Also I can say, that our very kind host predict 60 - 70% chance of rain for the race...

[n/aTurbo]

a rainy race is a good race in my opinion. Opens it up for a more skilled race rather than just pure engineering that mclaren and ferrari have.

ohh btw... Congrats to Sebastian Vettel on the last round win.

rain on a street circuit will make my weekend

[Roy]

I would personally like to see a dry race. Rain in Singapore at night, the first night GP race will kill it. Roads in Singapore thankfully drain well, but when it rains it Singapore its almost enough to knock you out...so heavy rain, on a green street circuit at night with light refracting off its surface.

It wouldnt be a race , more a Pace Car parade:(

You farkin know it maing.

Thatll make my season coz you know there going to be so close to wiping out every lap - greasy, slick and unrubbered plus WET track = carnage and lots of yellow flags.

So you want to watch a bunch of cars circulating around under the pace car for say 35-40 laps waiting for one of Singa's showers to pass? Not to mention the spectators at night in the rain. No thanks, i think a dry race at night on this track is going to be way cool. Rain will ruin it

lol, like it ruined Spa, Monza or Silverstone?

lol @ silly Roy.

I never said a deluge mang, but you know damn straight, rain will be pimpn.

What Roy said is correct. Rain will result in spray which when combined with what will almost certainly be an over zealous approach to safety will mean tonnes of safety cars. It is their first night race and spray & overhead lighting won't be a happy combination. So you had better hope it doesn't rain.

Track looks to be pretty difficult to overtake on.

[Roy]

This time of year you do get some lighter showers then other times of the year. And Singapore roads are damn good for coping with the downpours. But with it being a night race, knowing that when it rains it pours...personally i am praying for a dry race....completely different set of circumstances then the other wet races we have had.

The drivers are just that , drivers...not magicians. Hey, i will happily admit i was wrong if Singapore gets one of its usual floods mid race...but i will be hoping it doesnt happen.

I thought when running around the track that there was going to be several places for the brave to attack. We will see soon enough

[Gts-t]

Does anyone know if a night race is confirmed for next year?

Im heading over for it if so

Practice 1 starts at 9pm on http://www.soccer-live.pl/ITVF1/f1player.php

Here is an interesting article about the team costs, it shows how pathetic Toyota/Honda are and how well RBR and TR are punching above their weight.

[wolverine]

just about to start.

[wolverine]

lots of bumps
