Sauber's Sergio Perez on his incident with Williams' Pastor Maldonado: "He doesn't respect other drivers. I was already in front and he should have given space not to crash but he tried to push me all the way. I don't understand why he drives like that and I hope the stewards do something. It is not first time he has damaged my weekend. This guy will never learn if they don't do something. He could hurt someone. Everybody has concerns about him. He is a driver with no respect at all, the way he is driving the stewards have to do something. He affects many other drivers. I am not the only one."
This incident won't be investigated until after the race.
'He's a very stupid driver'
Perez :bow:

Webber will have a five place grid pelanty for a gearbox change.
Shocker of a day for McLaren yesterday, might be better today if it stays dry.
McNamara That Ghost...
21-07-2012, 09:54 AM
Although it looks like the rain is coming. :lol:
McNamara That Ghost...
21-07-2012, 10:00 AM
Alonso is fastest in P3, though everybody is safely staying in the pits with rain coming down quite heavily with a minute to spare.
Absolutely pelting it down. :lol:
Hamilton was less than a tenth down on the hard tires. Difficult to really tell the pecking order at this point.
The weather will throw a spanner in the works.
McNamara That Ghost...
21-07-2012, 12:03 PM
Q1 is under way. Think the track is dry at the moment.
McNamara That Ghost...
21-07-2012, 12:21 PM
Raikkonen fastest in Q1.
Schumacher just sneaks in, Vergne, Kovalainen, Petrov, Pic, Glock, De La Rosa and Karthikeyan drop out.
McNamara That Ghost...
21-07-2012, 12:31 PM
It won't be long before it is full wets. :lol:
Alonso and Massa could've crashed there.
Agent Massa. :bow:
McNamara That Ghost...
21-07-2012, 12:44 PM
Raikkonen isn't happy with Perez.
Hamilton fastest in Q2. Ricciardo, Perez, Kobayashi, Massa :haha:, Grosjean, Senna, Rosberg :wacko: drop out.
Some of those will be bumped up before the start tomorrow due to grid pelanties however.
McNamara That Ghost...
21-07-2012, 12:51 PM

Loads of bodywork flying about near turn 1.
Ah suprise surprise, it's Massa - lost his front wing. :doh:
McNamara That Ghost...
22-07-2012, 12:06 PM
Hamilton down in tenth, he has a problem with his tyre I think.
McNamara That Ghost...
22-07-2012, 12:07 PM
Poor old Lewis, everyone is sailing past him now. :lol:
Still half a lap before he can get in to the pits.
McNamara That Ghost...
22-07-2012, 12:10 PM
Raikkonen moves up ahead of Di Resta, superb move.
Also, Kobayashi is hilarious.

22-07-2012, 01:32 PM
Vettel passes Button round the outside and is back up to second! He did complete the move off the track though.
McNamara That Ghost...
22-07-2012, 01:34 PM
Alonso wins! He extends his lead in the Championship. Vettel (for now) second, Button third. Then Raikkonen, Kobayashi, Perez, Schumacher, Webber, Hulkenberg and Rosberg.
I can't see how Vettel can get away with that.
Alonso not even singing his national anthem :rolleyes:
McNamara That Ghost...
22-07-2012, 01:42 PM
Yeah, I wouldn't have thought so. Just give Button second place back.
Alonso. :lol:
No national pride.
McNamara That Ghost...

20 second penalty for Vettel who now finishes 5th, Jenson, Kimi and Kamui move up a place

That was scary
Grosjean is a fucking idiot.

Kubica is racing again. :bow:
Rallying but it's a step in the right direction.
Massa. :wave:
He won the event, no less.
I'll go out on a limb though and say he'll never race in F1 again.

Depends on his physical capabilities I'd say, I'm sure he will get a test run again somewhere. Probably going to be a year away though.

Well I'm told that he has next to no use of his right hand. His arm was technically severed and had to be re-attached.
I'd love to see him back, I just think it's very unlikely.

FFS BBC.
I can't say I blame him either. If I was a sports presenter (and lets face it, I should be, tbh) I would want out of the BBC as well.

im not sure this is a good move for him imo. he is brilliant as a presenter and with teh bbc he does a lot, spoty, f1, football, olympics etc and i think he would have more to do if he stayed then jsut a few games on bt which lets face it arent going to get the big games are they?
however he says he ahs always wanted to do it so good luck to him. he is a very good presenter

Vettel was fastest in P1, P2 was red flagged due to Senna crashing. Back on now though.

Right, but with the olympics over and BBC more than likely giving up their F1 rights, what is he going to present on the BBC?
And I'm sure not travelling all over the world will be better for his young family.

He must get sod all chance to watch Norwich too. Then again, maybe that should be reasoning for travelling the world.

Vettel is fastest in P2. Must be the huge amount of corners that is helping.
McNamara That Ghost...
22-09-2012, 10:59 AM
P3 has been red flagged right at the end.
Vettel fastest in P3.

Sexily done by Hamilton over the chicane. :haha:
McNamara That Ghost...
22-09-2012, 01:21 PM
Grosjean fastest in Q1. Lots of different tyres used though so not really sure how much that means.
McNamara That Ghost...
22-09-2012, 01:24 PM
OUT
18) Kamui Kobayashi 19) Vitaly Petrov 20) Charles Pic 21) Heikki Kovalainen 22) Timo Glock 23) Narain Karthikeyan 24) Pedro de la Rosa
Poor effort from Kobayashi.

Senna is just alwful.
McNamara That Ghost...
22-09-2012, 01:43 PM
Hamilton fastest in Q2, Vettel second.
Hulkenberg, Raikkonen, Massa, Perez, Ricciardo, Vergne and Senna (obviously) drop out.
Massa. :lol:
I think Vettel will get pole but it'll be close.

22-09-2012, 01:50 PM
Q3 under way now. :popcorn:
Just in time before the 3pm kick-offs. :bow:

22-09-2012, 02:02 PM
Hamilton gets pole! Maldonado second, Vettel third. Button, Alonso, Di Resta, Webber and Grosjean follow. Rosberg and Schumacher didn't bother.

Some cars go wide, Vettel up to second!

23-09-2012, 12:05 PM
Button is up to third ahead of Maldonado now too. :lol:

23-09-2012, 12:08 PM
Massa got a puncture somehow. :haha:

Webber is the first one to change tyres - guinea pig really.
McNamara That Ghost...
23-09-2012, 12:34 PM
Rosberg and Kobayashi went incredibly close on Turn 7 there. :faint:

23-09-2012, 12:47 PM
I get the feeling only tyre degradation is going to make anything happen today.
McNamara That Ghost...
23-09-2012, 12:48 PM
Hamilton is out of the race!
Me. :bow:

23-09-2012, 12:48 PM
Mechanical failure of some description.
McNamara That Ghost...
23-09-2012, 12:50 PM
Ah, gearbox failure.
Possibly will hasten Hamilton's decision to leave?
McNamara That Ghost...
23-09-2012, 01:00 PM
Webber did what I do on this track, ran wide on the entry to the pits.
McNamara That Ghost...
23-09-2012, 01:07 PM
Karthikeyan has crashed! :rolleyes:
Safety Car is out.
McNamara That Ghost...
23-09-2012, 01:18 PM
Maldonado is out again. :haha:
Safety Car hasn't even gone back in yet.
McNamara That Ghost...
23-09-2012, 01:22 PM
Button nearly wiped Vettel out. :faint:

Massive crash! Schumacher wipes out Vergne!
McNamara That Ghost...
23-09-2012, 01:25 PM
Safety Car is back out. :lol:
Schumacher :haha:
JEV should have stuck one on him, tbh
McNamara That Ghost...
23-09-2012, 01:28 PM
Yeah, Coulthard should've given him advice on what to do through team radio.
McNamara That Ghost...
23-09-2012, 01:32 PM

McNamara That Ghost...
23-09-2012, 01:34 PM
Massa and Senna nearly caused the third major incident of the day. :wacko:
McNamara That Ghost...
23-09-2012, 01:45 PM
Perez's front wing has gone, partly.
McNamara That Ghost...
23-09-2012, 01:47 PM
Hulkenberg has a puncture, Kobayashi had a damaged front wing. Crazy race.

23-09-2012, 01:53 PM
It'd down to a timed race now. 10 minutes to go.
McNamara That Ghost...
23-09-2012, 02:05 PM
Vettel wins! Congrats to him. Button second, Alonso somehow third. Di Resta, Rosberg, Raikkonen, Grosjean, Massa, Ricciardo and Webber follow.

Crazy race.
Webber given a 20 second pelanty for overtaking off track. He drops to 11th.
