scarface_au Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Yes! Well done Webber! Granted, it was handed to him due to the Vettel gearbox issue, but at least Webz takes home the gold once this year.

gts-4 dreamer Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) You think vetel had any actual problems? Seems like Redbull's brand of team orders. Work. Hmmm I'll go in later. Hopefully nothing major goes wrong and no one notices I'm not there till early afternoon.

White GTS-T Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 If it helps, I got my 3 day general admin pass to Monza this year, from here http://italiangp.it/index.asp. Although I'm not sure if they're selling 2012 tickets just yet. Also, they only send out the tickets about a fortnight in advance of the actual race. So if you're already going to be overseas at this time, it's just something to keep in mind. Good luck. It's an incredible weekend. Oh and Webber ftw.

ctjet Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 (edited) From what I'm told, wasn't the most exciting race of the year The gearbox for vettel seems a little sus, but its a bit late in the season for those kind of accusations Edited November 27, 2011 by ctjet Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/344495-2011-f1-thread/page/237/#findComment-6129264 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIG747 Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 I went back to sleep about 40 laps in... It seemed like it was going to end the way it was going and it did so no big loss... I'm glad webber got a win no matter how it happened...

ctjet Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Whats dissappointing is that even after 19 races, the gaps between each of the front runners has remained fairly static Bulls out in front Mclaren challenge 50% of the time Ferrari picking up the pieces Mercedes bringing up the rear 9 months of knowing pretty much how the race was going to end up, short of rain. Unless somebody does something magical between now and march, im expecting next year to be a carbon copy. The in season testing ban has stopped any kind of significant performace mix betweeen teams. If Vettel wins by some margin in Melbourne next year, i might start giving some of the races a miss next year. Monza and Valencia for example. Just have to wait it out and hope for the best with the turbo era Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/344495-2011-f1-thread/page/237/#findComment-6129533 Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh@un Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 the testing ban blows I know it's supposed to keep costs down, but what are the back markers supposed to do about their ~5 sec/lap defecit?

Nee-san Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Not testing at this level of motorsport is a joke, there should be a test after every race for young drivers or something !

ctjet Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Every race is a bit much I cant see why they couldnt run a few days testing after a grand prix weekend. Tracks already setup, teams are already there and fans could get tickets to it or something Have like... 4?... of these spread evenly over the course of the year and BAM. Low cost, easily organised, everybody is happy How fcuking hard is that?!

White GTS-T Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 How did you find Monza? I thought the way the GP was run was hopeless. Wasnt great for spectating or easy to get around. And Milan was nowhere as much fun as say Budapest for nights out It's the only GP I've been to, so I don't really have anything to compare, but I enjoyed it. I used public transport to get to and from Monza from Milan and it became a bit testing as the crowds grew. But you are right, Monza park is a massive venue and getting around can be a bit of a logistical nightmare. From a spectators point of view it was pretty poor. From any decent vantage point you could only really see a very small section of track and often without the big screens in view. And after going on to Paris after Milan it made me realise how much of a crap factory Milan was.
