am I the only one that hates neil crompton's commentary?

He shits me too! He makes a very good pit reporter (like he was back at 7), but just dosn't have the personality to be a commantator. iTV are starting to get annoying with the button humping (but no worse than the Aus commentators and Webber humping), I recon he has to wear waders when he speaks to them

I like Cromley!!

even when he's being technical he explains it well... and I like how he's calm and sensible and doesnt get over excited or carry on like a wanker. Daryl Eastlake used to shit me to tears...

i forgot all about the race, I was at Duncans on Sunday and didnt get back to Canberra till 11pm... totally forgot dammit :(:laugh:

Somewhat telling is the difference between top end speeds at the end of the main straight. By way of just one example the Ferrari had an 11km/h better terminal speed than the McLaren. What the hell are they doing at Mercedes? Did the get the F1 engines mixed up with the diesels they put into the E class taxis?????

Crompto is the best Australian commentator we currently have, i really hope Ch7 grabs him for next years V8SC otherwise it could be very dull.

Cromly going no where -sorry

Good to see Webber finished the year in fine style and this race basically represented his last 2 years at Williams-DNF ha ha. This whole Williams fiasco has destroyed any chance of Mark ever really getting to the top. I hope a thousand fleas invest the ass crack of all who work at Williams and crappy Cosworth.

Remember Ferrari gave Shu a magic going away engine. Not massa though.

really? because their quali times were quite similar...

Qualifying Speedtrap Interlagos

Don't forget that Schumacher spent half his time being towed down the straights and overtaking them into the following corner.... how many people slipstreamed Schuey and overtook him?

i think they were all too busy being nostalgic and letting him pass...

not that it really matters anyway :sorcerer:

To me the extra speed he had down the straights was much more than just being towed along. It looked like the Ferraris had a substantial straight line speed advantage. Maybe they turned the wick up on Schumachers car to help secre the teams championship trophy. If they did they didn't miss by much.

I was just going by what was ont he tellie the other night.

Super Aguri has come good at last. Just in time for.... oh damn. :P

Super Aguri will have Jensons car from brazil + some extras... and considering jensons pace, that isnt to shabby

they wont be serial backmarkers for much longer

This is the reason i like Kimi... he is in this sport for himself.

He couldnt care less what happens around him, he is only concerned about his car, his own performance and his chances of winning. I am convinced that after the three year contract with Ferrari runs out... he's gone.

Pre-race interview with Kimi Räikkönen :mad:

Ok guys, it would appear that throughout the course of the F1 racing year, you have all managed at some time to commit character assasinations of most of the F1 Teams, F1 management, Cars, Drivers, Designers and just about anything or anyone associated with the Grand old *sport* of F1. As an avid reader of this topic and believe me it is better than reading a Phantom (Ghost Who Walks, Man who Cannot Die) comic, there have been so many twists and turns that I think they should make a movie out of the sport of F1. What's that? They already have I heard someone say!!! Damn there goes another great idea!

Anyway guys, it has been a fantastic read (mobs of laughs) and can we now start the 2007 thread as I'm sure there will be plenty of script available during the off season/pre-season.

Top Secret Post Script hot off the rumour mill. BE has agreed to sell the Brabham F1 naming rights to Craig Pollock!

Ok, ok I just made that up but it makes nice reading.

Cheers

Thats the first hint of personality i've seen from the ice man

F1 is basically soap opera for blokes. If you want a movie about grand prix racing try Grand Prix. Hopelessly melodramatic in the 60's tradition, but worth a look.

Muz, hate to dissuade you but BE doesn't own the rights to Brabham any more. Nothing wrong with the rumour other than that. Heard the one about Colin Chapman coming back from exile in South America to reform Team Lotus? Young Andretti will be driving for him. Cosworth motors. :P

    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
