Now I know Helmut Marko isn't the most liked person around but I do know he never pulls punches with his own team and doesn't sugarcoat a difficult situation, but reports from AMuS and Servus TV report that Helmut is saying Red Bull are 2 months behind and they admit they might not be able to close the gap this season which leaves it up until May (Spanish GP) until they're expected to show decent performances again.

Thats how a passionate racer should be... I like Grosjean... and I like that reaction. Dont believe a racer should be manufactured... and smiling like a pussy (meaning a cat, ok) when his car is crap. Serious!!!

I'm surprised he didn't miss that and wind up slapping the catering van.

He looks like he is saying for a whole year you told me you were building me a fast race car, you didnt tell me it was a f..... car bomb too! Every time i get in there is fire everywhere!

There are lots of things wrong with the rules that restrict the racing, especially in regard to tyres, the lack of any real tyre strategy annoys the **** out of me, the optimum strategy with a open tyre choice will probably be different driver to driver, and if they could mix up the compounds from wheel to wheel even better, the tyre strategies of yesteryear produced some great climaxes to races, with soft shod chargers hunting down hard shod plodders, it happens on the odd occasion now, generally early in the season, but was far more frequent when tyres choices were open.

And the other chap is saying "What do you want me to do, wave a magic f***ing wand?" While thinking "I'm going to use his balaclava to dry my nuts".

hahahahahaha You are lucky he didnt turn to the car and....:emoticon-0172-mooni ... but Grosjean is too much of a nice guy for that sort of thing...lol
 
To be honest though..I am surprised to see Grosjean react like that.. I always have this impression of him as a very quiet, calm individual... even when he was going through the hard times with the crashes and everything, I think he handled it well. I remember making a comment during that time when everybody was calling him the crash dummy, that he was going to surprise everybody, and he did last year. I really like him and I am hoping that Lotus could sort out their problems... if not for Australia, at least early in the season to give him a chance to show what he is worth. He is a good kid and I think he is a very good and genuinely fast racer who I think will win a championship sooner or later. Remember I said it here!<ok>

He might just be tantruming because somebody ate the last bagel while he was out on track...

"I left the damn bagel right here...and I was only on the track for two minutes."
