Whiplash Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Thats laughable considering all the BS we have had to put up with over the past 9 months!! its all becoming a HUGE joke at the moment, the main race seems to be who can get to the press the fastest now not the finish line. They need...no...desperately demand a good show - for our sakes let me remind you - and a penalty for LH will add up to a grandstand finish with 3 dirvers going toe to toe for it in the final exciting chapter!!!! Great for ratings if your a follower of Friends, 24, Prison break etc etc etc .. looks like the FIA is taking a chapter out of the VESCO book on how to rig a final round!!

**JaR** Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 (edited) pretty sure the lights were still on on the safety car at the time of the incident.... to me that pretty much makes it clear that hamilton was driving like a f**k wit (especially given the conditions) when he had absolutely no reason to be heating tires or brakes as the lights were still on and the safety car obviously wasn't due in yet... Hope he gets the penalty he deserves, especially considering Vettel has been penalised 10 grid spots for a crash that came about because of eratic driving by the race leader Edited October 4, 2007 by **JaR** Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/149406-2007-f1-season/page/82/#findComment-3391529 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco-R34GTT Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 (edited) I agree with M4gtr on the whole 'FIA are in it for ratings not racing' pov, and yes, it is full of s*#@. However, firstly, it is inherent given the Bernie/Banks/Mosley set-up... Do you really expect the heirarcy aren't going to íntervene when necissary' in order to maintain profits and popular appeal? I'm sure you know that in particular is a major factor? As far as I'm concern, F1 should never of been owned, nor should it ever, fact is however, it is... After Alonso's 'blocking penalty' at Monza last year, I will say I do see your point about total lack of partial judgement within the governing of race weekends, on this year's spying scandal, the jury is still out.. On the 5 car lengths thing, if it is a rule, and Hamilton did not adher to it, then it is legit, as it, be it directly or indireclt (depend on pov), it caused an accident. Remember all those stop-goes and drive throught between 2002 and 2004? Between Ralfie, Montoya, Schumi and co. When they all went argy bargie for a few weekends there and the pit exit line shenanigans??? These rule violations happen, deal with it, it is entirely a driver's resonsibility to pilot the car in acorrect manner that is entirely adherent to the rules and regs.. Simple as that..

ctjet Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 (edited) Looks like a 10 place grid penalty may be on the way... that'll spice up the last couple of races My intrest in the rest of the season is back on track Edited October 4, 2007 by ctjet Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/149406-2007-f1-season/page/82/#findComment-3391758 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer Baron Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 good. a ten place penalty will bring louise back in webber area of the grid. time for some payback mark. get your vomiting, swearing aussie self dialed in, then t-bone the bastard! it seems turning one into a canoe is the closest you will get to a decent car.

djr81 Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Looks like a 10 place grid penalty may be on the way... that'll spice up the last couple of racesMy intrest in the rest of the season is back on track Well I noticed a couple of things. 1. The piss weak folk at FIA/ITV had their coverage removed from Youtube (the bits that missed the incident). Bit rich for them to use someone elses for their own purposes then, really. 2. Lewis was was over the right hand side of the track near on level with the safety car. Webber was on the other side & only a couple of car lengths behind the safety car aswell. Sure, Lewis was driving erratically (& should be fined and/or slapped about for it) but really I don't think they can pin Webber's accident on him.

m3gtr Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 sebastien, please try to choose your words more carefully next time.... "I was looking to the right and I was sure he (Hamilton) was retiring, there was no power anymore and yeah, all I can say is that by the time I looked back I was already in Mark's rear end so..." I dont think mark likes you being in his rear end, lol :ph34r: oh and check out these typical webboisms... Q: And is that something you will bring up say, in the drivers' meeting? Webber: Yeah. We'll talk about it, waste a bit of oxygen and move on. ...when asked about LH handling the SC,... Webber: I think he did a shit job behind the safety car. He did a shit job and that's it. Webber: As Fernando just touched on, it's the game we are in. It's not lawn bowls, it's F1. hes such a champ, even if his best result is only 3rd.

Not when its covered in spew mind you... haha, yes I know twice. that's why I said "driven after doing 4 back-flips over the fence" meaning he flipped but then went back into the car and drove it and flipped it again! and that lawn bowls comment is pure gold.

Ferrari make more money from merchandise than they make from cars. So they have more in common with, say, Mattel than with Mercedes. Does that help?
