in retrospect: amazing qualifying lap by hamilton
team-order by ferrari was expected, but that was way too obvious. did they even bother investigating it?
▼
Paintrain 19 Oct 2008, 11:55
I think that's another rule that either needs to be changed or kicked out entirely. Since the rule was made, Ferrari bothered to make it look real the first couple of times. But after that nobody even bothered to hide it. So unless you walk to the stewards and tell them you're gonna give a teamorder, nobody will do anything.

Yep, the rule is useless and there's virtually no way to enforce it.

Paintrain 19 Oct 2008, 12:11
I don't understand why they made such a rule anyway. Formula 1 is also a teamsport, so it's normal that you make these kinda decisions.

on german TV they said that team-order is only allowed in the last race of the season!

Paintrain 19 Oct 2008, 13:51
I highly doubt that. Who's doing the broadcasting for premiere btw?

Surer is kind of a dumb-ass. So I wouldn't call that better than the RTL crew. Especially Christian Danner is very competent. I don't watch RTL much though, only when the Dutchies are having commercial breaks. When both have commercial breaks, I can even switch to Belgian broadcasting, which is utterly boring btw.

Yeah, basically that's why I watch the Dutch commentator. He makes lots of mistakes, but he's really enthusiastic.

Paintrain 19 Oct 2008, 11:51
Pfff, that was boring. It was one of those races that you knew nothing was gonna happen after the first lap. I did some usefull stuff in between though, so my laundry is done for today!:D

its just unfortunate that Hamilton is too quick for the other drivers :)
Parent

Paintrain 19 Oct 2008, 13:50
Nah, the McLaren was just slightly too quick this weekend. Raikkonen did pretty good, Massa was struggling a bit more. I hoped for a bit of mixing up after the start, so it would've been a real fight. But now the outcome of the race was obvious very early.

FinlandKovalainen ftw

Paintrain 19 Oct 2008, 12:13
He's pretty disappointing, he can't keep up with Hamilton at all. I don't understand why McLaren took him anyway. With Renault he already proved that he's not championship material. But Ron Dennis probably needed an easy driver next to his puppet Hamilton.

Kovalainen's MacLaren has been shit all season.
Parent

eVo 19 Oct 2008, 12:53
lol u think he has a different car to hamilton, thats laughable, he's just not consistent or anywhere near as quick as hamilton
Parent
▼
jezix 19 Oct 2008, 14:05
no shit, but look how many times kovalainen's car has broken down due to a technical failure compared to hamilton's car.
Parent
▼
Paintrain 19 Oct 2008, 13:46
That's bogus, they have the same car. Kovalainen is not bad, but not topteam material.
