Can't wait for Button to over take him into the first corner again :D

StylinRed 03-24-2012 01:28 AM

Schumi will pass em both by the first corner :fullofwin:

WOOOOOOOOOT

surprised he and rosberg didnt go out for another lap i guess Brawn doesnt feel they're competitive enough yet to bother

falcon 03-24-2012 01:32 AM

Looks like a total cock in that photo.

godwin 03-24-2012 01:59 AM

or they are happy with where they are.. with what happened last week, I just hope their cars are reliable.. it would suck for another gearbox failure!

Another question is how many people would invest in the F1 IPO? Honestly Williams stock really suck.. it is more fun shorting it than to make any money. At least VAG licensed their flywheel technology.

yeah thats what i mean he's probably still concerned their performance @ race wont match qualifying so they're like "this will do" guess the tire issue is still a big one for them


side note everyones been remarking about schumis smile since qualifying sooo.. here it is, guess its a stark contrast from the typical contemplative demeanor

I really think that Schumi came back to F1 because he was bored. Maybe he is enjoying himself a little more now. Or it could be just the fact that he finally has a good car that put him on the second row.. haha.

I'm still amazed how a guy his age can drive an F1 car with such consistency and still near the top.


With Kimi and Schumi starting near the front tomorrow, I put my bets on both of them to finish top 5, and one on the podium. Which one? Not quite ready to make that bet yet. Grosjean should have a good race too.

falcon 03-24-2012 05:25 AM

Looks like Kimi has a gearbox penalty and will be starting from 10th. that moves Grosjean up to 6th. Should be interesting.

StylinRed 03-24-2012 01:08 PM

yeah will definitely be interesting its surprising how close all the cars are too they're all like within a tenth of a second off

they were showing michael in qualifying making like a million adjustments to his brake settings while performing a flying lap and coulthard and partner commenting were like :eek: that he was doing it with ease (given his age etc)

falcon 03-24-2012 02:02 PM

Funny how the top 6 (I think) were withing .200, and then 7th was a whole .200 away (Vettel). Interesting to say the least.

Sure .400 is not a lot of time in reality, but in Formula one... it's an eternity.

godwin 03-24-2012 02:57 PM

Considering Schumacher is one of the hardest working driver in testing it is not surprise.. Not to mention I think this year's car is the first true "Michael's" car ie a car that is tailored for him, rather for him have to adapt to a car which was designed for someone else who left at the very last minute. It would be fun to see him on the podium again.

Hoping to see Schumacher on the podium for this race! :thumbsup:

HonestTea 03-24-2012 09:02 PM

Can't...wait....

3 more hours..too bad we don't get any pre-race coverage on TSN :(

The large shower located in the Northeast at 10 Km is moving towards the circuit.High probability of rain before the beginning of the race.

Damn looks like it's gonna rain

HonestTea 03-24-2012 11:40 PM

As a Button fan = mixed emotions..

Button is pretty good in the wet or mixed conditions but Button or Hamilton could probably get an easy 1/2 if it was dry..

BUT as a racing fan = RAIN!!!! Any track with rain on it is pretty exciting, maybe not Valencia or Abu Dhabi... :/

1) Button 2) Schumacher 3) Hamilton, although I have a feeling Kimi is gonna take P3 and Hammy P2 lol
