F1 Silly Season 2005

[b00st_M0nK3Y]

Yeh Webber was probably pissing with those darn foreigners larfin @ him in the background haha.

Yeh but at least he has time to actually talk to us.. Most others tell us to bugger off.

He better not lose his frikken Aussie Accent or I'll be ashamed. We need something like this to show we're the kings =P

Just as i thought i was to day goodbye to DC, it appears Dietrich Mateschitz the team owner of Red Bull Racing has said that DC is on the top of the list for the other drive with the team. A seat is better then no seat...it aint going to happen but the Wuilliams drive would be nice....Are you reading this Mr Williams?

JV is a hack. I bet he thinks RB20's are great as well.

I hadn't been reading this thread but I will be at the GP! Also going to Monaco next year!

I see Brisco has given up on F1 and is signing up with Scott Dixon's team in the IRL too. Also glad to see Heidfeild quicker than Jungle Boy. Would be so bad for Williams to have him as Webbers team mate in '05.

[AndyMac]

I'm much looking forward to the Lygon Street after party if Webber gets a podium.....

[DSKYLINE2C]

I had big hopes for Jaques too. But the last 3 races for Renault were not too impresive compared to Fernando. Hopefully he just needs time to adapt. I think the conditions on the track for todays testing were fairly damp, so i dont think those times a really indicitive of the fields true performance. eg Schuey Jnr was 4 seconds off the pace

LOL..who says any of these guys have any talent. ..only one of them has won the World Championship, the others are also rans:)

...me runs off and hides, as after that me and JV got noth'n...he better perform otherwise ill never fly the JV flag again.

Hoping that Heidlfield and DC get the Williams and Red Bull drives

[Beer Baron]

Yeah, no-one wants Pizza man in F1. Can't he take the hint and f#$k off!

Melb GP will be awesome no matter what, but Monaco? Fu$%king amazing! Nice one snowy. When I'm a little older and more sensible the girlfriend and I are planning a 'world tour of F1' attend every race in a season. I'm hoping we can do it on $100 000. money well spent I reckon.

For all those DC fans (ok so only me:)) it appears likely that he has a Red Bull drive:)

Nah- I'm in that club too, and v glad DC will be around for another season :aroused:

Now, I just need to get rid of his fiancee......

[Duncan]

meh I think Kel's got a soft spot for DC as well.

As it were.

[Roy]

Go you good thing, this would not have hurt his chances...though you dont knwo what car setups the other Red Bull drivers were running...tyres, fuel loads? etc etc

You would have to assume that they are in the same equipment, it would be pretty difficult to compare drivers if they were in different spec cars. Heidfield has years racing experience, and has always been recognised as a good driver in poor equipment based on his jnr category results and McLaren testing days.

I so hope Heidfield gets the green light, in 3 weeks time we will know for sure:)

[Roy]

Come on DC

The boss is laughing, this had to be a good thing

All i want for Xmas is to swap lives with DC:)

[Roy]

Weber doing the business.

LOL. Im so unproductive when the boss asks me to work on a Saturday:(

[Kel]

I'm not complaining - nice pics!

Jerez - 10/12/04

2. Nick Heidfeld - Williams BMW - 1'16"786 - 64 laps

6. Antonio Pizzonia - Williams BMW - 1'17"097 - 145 laps

Funny thing about these times is that Heidfeld completed less than half the laps Pizzonia did due to technical failure. Piz must have been humiliated irrespective of the testing programs scheduled for both. lol hes got no hope now!

[Bleach1]

Apparently Pizzaman was on the fastel lap of the day during his last flying lap but was baulked by Zonta. I dont know what he was doing for the rest of the laps though. I thik it was something like 65laps for NH and 154 for pizza. Nick heidfeld deserves the drive in my opinion. He has been a driver like Webber i think, has alot of talent but has never had the machinery to prove it. Its only a 1 year gig by the looks of it anyway so Williams should give him a run i believe.
