I put money on Button to win the championship this season. When he won the first race I thought I was on to a winner. Thanks for that false sense of hope JB.
Just found out that Mercedes (A team fighting Torro Rosso's) are only 20 points safe from Sauber (a team that is now fighting for podiums). Stuttgart bosses will be having cold sweats at night.
Which is the bigger fail, my prediction: [NSFW] [/NSFW] Or Autosport's driver ratings: [NSFW]10 Kobayashi, Ricciardo 9- Vettel, Massa 8- Button, Hulkenberg, Maldonado, Glock 7- de la Rosa, Kovalainen, Raikkonen, Webber 6- Hamilton, Schumacher, Pic 5-Karthikeyan, Petrov, Senna, di Resta, Rosberg 4- Alonso, Grosjean, Vergne, Perez[/NSFW]
They docked Alonso for crashing. Deary me. How can you rate 6 seconds? Rosberg lasted 2 more, so got two more points. Autosport, they come up with good articles, but whoever does the rating is Benson's long lost brother. And yeah, haha I remembered your post about the race, I sniggered a bit at turn 1.
Respect Forza for the gaff and sticking it out couldnt say the same for that American journalist that was taking the piss out of the Europeans before the last day
Ok, I'm Ricciardo's biggest fan ever, but even I think his drive was only worth a 9 at most (8 at least)
I think Ricciardo has stolen a march over his team mate vergne now. The STR seem to be doing very well at picking up the scaps when the big boys foul up. Ricciardo has also proven to be very good at defending and hard to overtake.
Agree with everything here. Seems to be very good at racing in general and involved in little to no incidents (which makes me think Silver is right about FR3.5 > GP2). If I'm right, he's the only driver aside from Alonso to participate in every weekend and not be faced with some kind of penalty. Like you say, that car isn't really good enough to challenge, but they're always there to pick up points when everyone else fluffs up.
Oh my god your the first person to ever agree with me! [video=youtube;3GwjfUFyY6M]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GwjfUFyY6M[/video]
