as much of a dog of a season McLaren is having, Williams's is worse yet again

Interesting to compare Dan and Jev?

But the real point that I am stoked about is Romain has been in teh points the last 7 races ,inc three 3rds. The Singapore DNF is the only hiccup and he was in a strongh position when that happened. He is finishing the year nicely!

comfirms my opinion - JEV's the better racer. Dan's the better qualifier.

[Roy]

The world is 1D and B&W and flat. I cant think of a race since the sumemr break where Jev has been near Dan on the road...too many car probs etc throwing variables at them. Though Dan and STR were silly not to give the position back on the weekend

[hrd-hr30]

hehe is it an interesting comparison or totally meaningless? I'm confused...

[Roy]

Its interesting because I have to reach for the excuse jar for Dan. I had through that the stats would have added up rather favourably for Dan given his form post Silverstone.

Rumours of Maldonado being dropped by Williams are floating around.

please let this happen

please let this happen

Why do you want it to happen. Where do you expect Williams to get money from in his absence?

Doesnt mean anything much Roy. If you drag the smoking wreck of a busted pos of a car home in 20th instead of retiring it you can shift the numbers by one in just one race. The are 3 vs 5 DNFs off the back of 13 races. So JEV has only 8 finishes, Disco 10. A 20th for JEV would make his number worse than Dan's. Also it is hard to "out race" your team mate when they have retired.

Singapore, for example, was a bad race for Ricciardo. He stuck it in the wall from 15th position or thereabouts which helped his numbers.
