Formula 1 Is Back

[TALBO]

I'm definitely hoping it's going to be wet. It'll separate the men from the boys and make for some good racing.....

i would like a dry start then around lap 6-7 it should bucket down

For sure..... then again I think rain is going to suit Alonso most being the great leveler that it is!

Hamilton struggles in the wet badly lol

Alonso is very experienced campaigner and he has won 2 titles as well

not an easy task to do specially when Schumy was still racing...Alonso however is one of the best drivers in the wet and also Barichello

Unfortunately for MS+ Ferrari they were on the wrong rubber in 2005, Michelin totally owned the bridgestones. In 2006 MS got screwed by his fellow drivers in Monaco then his engine failure in Japan pretty much cost him the title.

Alonso got lucky...Lol. Seriously though Alonso is one of the best out there at the moment.

Alonso is a very good driver...his car just lacks pace

but he is a very very good driver in the wet

The rain is just pelting down now...

I wonder if they will restart the race.

[Normsta]

I'm 80% sure they won't, they have 30 minutes left, if they do restart, it might only be another 5-10 laps.

Bernie and his twilight horseshite!!!

WOW those diffusers are causing a bit of a worry for a few teams now

[TALBO]

That's why I'm expecting more teams are going to follow the lead of Brawn/Toyo/Williams with the diffusers design especially if they are deemed legal when this goes to the courts

[Boof]

i'll be very surprised if they deam those difusers illegal...Well then again Ferrari aint running them so just maybe they will deam them illegal....

[Krishy]

Ferrari are sticking by the rules by the looks of things....those diffusers seem to be giving the drivers a little advantage over the rest of the field i reackon....will be interesting to see what happens...and if deemed illegal or outside the guidelines then what happens to the previous round won be Jenson Button etc

If deemed illegal I'm guessing they'll have no choice but to disqualify the Brawn/Toyota/Williams cars for the first 2 rounds.

[rhys5169]

if its effecting ferrari expect them to be disqual'd and stripped of everything

[Krishy]

well to me Ferrari looks like they are sticking to the rules and still doing a good job

but Rhys i dont think that Ferrari will be favoring those diffusers beeing deemed illegal....

[Fishpaste~]

YAY!!!! diffusers legal!!! watch Brawn go from being number 1 next weekend to 15th in 3 races time! =)

Edit, well, mabe not Brawn, coz their car seems awsome, but perhaps the other 2 will drop away pritty quickly

[Krishy]

now the whole field will be running those diffusers and just watch the top three runners go down

it will also show us how much those diffusers gave the car better performance
