[sparkstu]

Iv'e heard of the various devices that need broadband, the problem is that we don't have fast broadband here, and I've got staid with mobile only.

I have got one but it's not that good

Hamilton will breeze it with Vetel chopping at his heals. Rosberg is burnt out. The rest will fight for points

I'm still unsure I think rosberg really wants it this year and think his looking more comfortable in the car then Hamilton. Also Hamilton has all ready said he don't like the tyres this year and an not get on with them where rosberg seems to be fine with them.

I have Sky F1, and I don't know why I really bother. Apart from the odd qualifying session when it rains, and ends up with a muddled grid, it's pretty much done after the first corner, unless one of the Mercs pack up or one of them drives off the track. It's been like it for years. Someone ridiculed me for watching the sport a few years ago, saying still watching those cars driving round & round, but that's all that seems to happen now.

The Sky's presentation is pretty good IMO, although without Brundle it wouldn't be so. Hopefully on CH4 you won't have to put up with that idiot Jordan! I've heard a furphy, they've signed up a fair dunkum ridgy-didge, who give some good oil on the subject.

We can only hope that Rosberg pulls his finger out to give Hamilton a run for his money, and Vettel can be there as goal hanger.

Shame Maclaren & Red Bull can't be in the mix at the front, to spice things up. Always next year I suppose.

Love that - but I see Nico Rosberg as the goal hanger - Vettel, Hamilton & Verstappen are the real racers IMHO

They might be, but Hamilton & Rosberg have got the horses, so the rest are just making up the numbers. Still you never know, might have a season like 2009.

A little bit of sandbagging does no harm in psyching out the others


The interesting bit for this season is what the changes to qualifying are going to be they have been voted through though I'm not sure that they know how it is going to work yet

As my brother says "the cream always rises to the top" - no matter what happens in qualiy, Hammy will be there...

 

[telectrix]

TBH, i'd rather watch paint drying or grass growing. more fun watching celebs on the reasonably priced car on top gear.

Sadly , not always true. I watched Alonso at Silverstone do the very best he could with the once mighty Maclaren, back of the field for most of the race.
It was so sad to see.

Problem is that the engine makers - Mercedes, Ferrari and Renault all blocked, for about 6 months the Honda requests to be allowed to make additional changes - talk about stacking the cards in their favour.......


Then there is the fact that the same 3 companies with held developments from their "customers".

The rules should FORBID any chance of the customers getting 2nd rate engines....

Honestly, when you see the difference in ten seconds on the track it is unbelievable.

I agree with what you have said . Competition is one thing ; unfair advantage , another altogether.

The spirit of the days of teams lending parts is long gone.
