Hiya guys, having gone a little crazy this last week with the end of school for me I thought I could bring a little bit of that craziness onto the forum and into the last two races of the season based on this great drinking game I found on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/TheBBCF1Dri...s-of-the-bbc-f1-drinking-game/113741188637995 It would only apply to quali and the race, but you guys also get the pre-shows (I don't), and if you want it can apply then as well. The only way we'll know everyone's getting drunk and playing along though is if people post the quote on here that was said; you'll be able to tell by the amount of spelling errors If any of the mods find this wrong due to the encouragement of drinking that's perfectly fine, and please feel free to take this thread down Now, because of split broadcasting between Sky and BBC commentators and audiences, I figured that we'd be targeting specific quotes from respective commentators. For example, Sky recievers would be looking out for Brundle and Kravitz's quotes while BBC audiences would watch for quotes from Coulthard and Eddie Jordan. Because there's so many quotes and incidents (I've thrown a few of my own in as well) you only have to take a sip of beer, or else you'd be too smashed to get past the first quarter of the race! I'll put up a table:[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"] [TR] [TD]Brundle [/TD] [TD]Coulthard [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]"A so-so first/middle/last sector" [/TD] [TD]"Clearly" [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]"Good stuff" [/TD] [TD]"Red Bull" [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]"He's had a dismal race/weekend/season" [/TD] [TD]"Sebastian Vettel" [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]"It is indeed" [/TD] [TD]"Mark Webber" [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]"Job done" [/TD] [TD]"Well, indeed.."

The next two races will be late afternoon/evening ones but I can't image this would work to well at say 7am in Australia p.s. Please drink responsibly
I'm with my mate here, he's coming round my place for a week so we can get ready for this with fast food included! He will watch Sky, I'll watch BBC.....who gets the most the drunk? WHO KNOWS!
I wanna watch the end of the season sober, I don't want to lose track of the race, but yeah I am in anyway. I alternate between Sky and BBC. Coulthard: "Well you know..." In a scottish accent.
Ya know, if my races didn't record really early and I didn't watch them in the morning I'd totally be down for this. But since they aren't I suppose I'll have to stick to coffee and breakfast (I'm not gonna get slizzard in the morning cause that'd make me an alcoholic )
So we've got a drinking game and a gambling game. We really are the epitome of a high-profile forum aren't we?
If someone can come up with a game involving hookers we're sorted! (...and the answer to that is not rugby)
Also put in: Webber losing a place at the start. (Mark kicks into anti stall) Me: "Ahhhh crap!" Specials for me and Iceman. SilverArrow: (Seb doing his crazy frog) Iceman: (Kimi smiling or laughing)
