'd love to see an Orange McLaren too, but they would need to swap mobile phone contracts first :)

Sorry, I don't get your point? Why are you moaning about a British broadcaster givng the most time to the leading British team that has 2 British drivers in it? You do realise that if were doing well but McLaren had 2 drivers from other countries and Lewis and Jenson were doing well at say...

I can't say that I agree with anyone saying that Maldonardo should not have been penalised. It was pretty straight forward. I'm tired of drivers just barging their way past and trying to go in too hot and losing control, forcing people off, or passing off track and thinking that it's OK...

The only other front runners to 3 stop were the Red Bulls. To be fair though, Jenson was hardly setting the world on fire with his pace. Although he may have been somewhat disheartened by the end, Alonso managed to pull out a big gap on him in the last few laps when (really) Jenson should have...

It was only intriguing for those that hadn't realised early on (seemingly a few people here and the McLaren strategists) that no-one was going to be able to overtake all weekend when the cars/drivers were remotely evenly matched. The commentators did a great job of trying to make out that...

Well, the strategies were the same in the end, as long as you think that 2 = 3. Basically, Button was used as a Guinea-pig to see how the 3 stop thing worked. If they were seriously running Jenson's race for the sake of Jenson, then they would have left him out in front of Vettel, as it was...

I don't get why people cant see the glaring differences with the events that you are debating. Vettel's illegal pass of Button in Germany was at a very low speed corner, where there was no "need" for him to run wide off track other than to gain a glaring and blatant advantage. Vettel's...

He hasn't, but then what does that say about him, that a big front running team were willing to put him in a good car from the get-go? I get the point you are making, comparing first 100 races when 1 driver is in a top car for pretty much all that time, while others weren't but you also have to...

Sometimes, he just comes over as a little boring, like some old guy props up the bar at the local, who everyone knows to just nod to and never make eye contact with else he'll just start talking to you about anything and everything. I just read his blog on the German GP too, and it seems that...

I think you are being a little disingenuous if you can't see the difference between the 2 incidents though. The point is, they are fundamentally different incidents. One was on a straight, the other going into a corner. Which, IMHO, makes the very question of comparing the 2 faulty in the...

Re: Hamilton's Vs Vettel's moves. The 2 incidents aren't really comparable, as one was at a corner, and the other was on a straight. The point with Vettel was that he may have got his nose in front going into a corner, but anyone can do that by breaking later and it doesn't mean that you are...

The McLaren looked quick in Germany, but not that fast. I don't get why people are obsessed with the notion of car being fastest, meaning that it should in easily. That's rarely been the case this year. The "fastest" car is often only just about arguably fastest, and not something that a driver...

The second jack seemed to struggle too, but having the front wheel guys wrestling with their wheels at the same time as he was trying to place the jack without damaging the front wing probably accounts for the problems. Lewis does seem to have more problems in this area than Jenson, but that...

So all these people were glad to see Lewis' downfall? I was hoping that this season would see an end to the paranoid delusions of Hamilton fans :(

Some of these comments seem to make me think that the first few races of the season, where Jenson had greater pace than Lewis in races on Pirelle tyres, didn't really happen and were all figments of my imagination. How McLaren have adapted the car to work with the Pirelli tyres (that seems to...
