Round 13: Belgian Grand Prix

IvySlayer

Jesus Christ that was messy!

amacachi

Goddamnit I forgot how great it is when it rains. Button up to p2 ^_^

lord lucan

I love SPA!:D

amacachi

Oh for ****sake. Seriously, I'd get the mother****ing car out of the way quicker than that.

Ghost Train

really tough calls for the teams

pity about rubens

amacachi

Wonder how much racing the McLarens are being let do.

Ghost Train

How the hell did the Ferrari survive that hit

lord lucan

Bring on the rain!(Sorry Grandmaster,hope you brought some wet gear with you!).:D

lord lucan

Go on Schumi! Never a man to pass up an opportunity.

Ghost Train

Schumacher will be lucky not to have puncture

Good from Petrov

Ghost Train

That Force India has some straight line speed

Grim.

lols

Ghost Train

crap, bad mistake from Vettel

amacca

vettel takes button out!

webber must be smiling behind his visor

amacachi

God ****ing Damn it.

At first I thought Button had weaved a little bit but how can there not be a penalty for Vettel there? I mean it's far worse than say a divebomb, it's like he wasn't intending to break fullstop.

amacachi

For all the bitching about Schumacher's driving this year I'd love know where all the criticism of Vettel is, there's two incidents he's caused so far taking out two different championship rivals. That's Button more than likely out of the title race, ****ing joke.

amacca

drivethrough for vettel!

hopefully some petulant fistpumping in the pitlane will ensue

flahavaj

Is Barichello gone lads? Just tuned in?

TheChrisD

Christ-sake, why is Vettel still allowed to race, he's making so many schoolboy errors...

Aye, first lap he ploughed into Alonso at the chicane.

LOL, thats what happens when I back him for a podium finish, purely out of sentiment on his 300th GP.:pac:

he really has been woeful this year, wonder is anyone still saying he is the new schumi

Ghost Train

feel sorry for Button, he needed a good result

Sutil looking strong

If I were in a junior formula and someone only got a drive-through for taking me out like that I'd be more than a little bit annoyed.


LOL at the Red Bulls bouncing off the limiters the whole time. :pac:

Ghost Train

Bit of Karma for Vettel

amacca

jaysus..left rear puncture for vettel!

after taking liuzzis front wing out

hes involved in everything....red mist and poor judgement combined

amacachi

Gotta feel for the backmarkers when Vettel gets to them.

Doubt it. Barring a massive disaster for Hamilton either today or the next race I think Button's nearly out of the title race. Points-wise he isn't but his confidence will have to be low with Hamilton a win and a half ahead.

Ghost Train

wonder will this rain influence things, interesting that the mercs haven't pitted

amacachi

Probably won't be any rain now after getting our hopes up.

amacachi

Really need Hamilton and/or Webber to go off in the rain for the title race.

amacca

dunno...sky looks very black on the tv coverage....wasnt sure what direction camera was pointing but think it was direction wind is coming from


fingers crossed

Ghost Train

why are they staying out, looks very wet

amacca

hamilton off

amacachi

Ah Goddamnit! So close there for Hamilton!

lord lucan

This is working out well for Webber.

amacca

webber benefits bigstyle from that pitstop

Ghost Train

has really closed up at the front, they'll be hoping it keeps raining

looks heavier now, the rain

amacachi

Nah I hope it completely stops raining so they have to get to the end on shot tyres. I just really want Hamilton and maybe Webber out.

amacachi

Safety Car mother****er!

lord lucan

That has to be a safety car!

amacca

alonso spins front wishbone looks fubar

Ghost Train

extreme wets is a good gamble for vettel although a lap down he's out of it

amacachi

They'd better let them go and not finish this under the SC!

It's just a pity it's Webber behind Hamilton, don't see him having a go tbh, if the roles were reversed I'd just be waiting for Hamilton to punt Webber off.

amacca

coming down heavy enough now...brundle maintains intermediates are fine no need for full wets yet

Ghost Train

Safety car does seem a bit slow, I'd say at this stage the leaders wont be pitting for tyres again

Great race, good auld Spa seldom disappoints! Terrible drive from Vettel, made some bad bad mistakes, good effort from schumacher too, up 14 spots, not bad and its good to see the Mercs racing each other.
