Grand Prix Rejects

1: Alonso - Screwed over by that safety car, and yet still making 2nd place and defending against two FAR superior cars on completely dead tyres. Heroic.
2: Vettel - That save

Here is the moment where ITV cut into a break in Suzuka 2006. In 1997 ITV cut into breaks when Hill passed Schumi in Budapest and when the McLarens retired from the lead at the Nurburgring. Ffs you can even see the smoke just as they cut off! I remembered that ad break, but now I look again, just.....

I must say Alonso's defending from Vettel was the best battle like that since.....Schumacher on Hamilton at Monza 2011? I certainly expected Vettel to have flown by within a lap or two! But that was great entertainment with the battle for the lead having been decided - but god did the championship ...

Surely Hamilton should get a penalty for going slowly and stopping Perez getting that last lap in? If I were Perez I'd be absolutely furious.

Williams' Strategists : Could very easily have won the race by simply pitting before the Mercedes cars both times, and using greater straight-line speed to stay ahead. Kept both cars out far too long at pitstops 1 & 2, and gifted Mercedes another 1-2. Not the first dodgy Williams call this year...

I'm sorry but how crap are the Williams strategists?? It was fairly obvious the Mercedes would get past if they didn't pit first, and yet still they didn't... I cannot think why, the Mercedes will pull away now. Not to mention the inconsistencies of the pitstop times.... all over the place It seems...

I wouldn't hand the title to Hamilton just yet - Red Bull are slowly improving, and does no one remember 2012? One win in the first 11 or so races for Mr. Vettel, and then suddenly come Belgium he was off and away - I'd be wary if I were Mercedes. Perhaps their saving grace is that Red Bull appears...

Chequered Flag Man: Good job, sir, single-handedly undoing a brilliant pass by Kobayashi.

I don't care how horribly offensive it is, if something like that won and Ferrari honoured the deal to name it that I'd have so much respect for them XD

- Ban DRS
- Reintroduce refuelling
- More stable tyres, no longer necessary to use both tyre types
- V10, normally-aspirated engines
- Triannual tests at circuits not used on the current championship calendar, with race drivers banned from partaking
- Fewer flyaway races
- No freeze on engines

Then what happened last year then? What happened was Alonso did the best he could and almost won the championship with that piece of crap Ferrari that did not deserve to be anywhere near a championship. If Ferrari didn't suck so bad then Alonso would have won the championship. I am still adamant th...

One thing to say about Piquet is that he did have a car that decided to blow up every minute in 1982, so he easily could have been a quadruple world champion as this was the year that no one took a stranglehold on the championship and Keke Rosberg won with a solitary win. The same could be said for...

My vote has to go to The DRS Zone Ruined a potentially intriguing race by allowing all those who pitted early straight back through. Surely somebody's going to see sense soon in the FIA and scrap it? All it does is wreck any chance drivers have of defending and of critical battles forming... I can't...

So beating Fisichella in the same car is better than 7 world championships? Heikki Kovalainen must be a legend then! No, he's saying that if Alonso wins a championship whilst Räikkönen is in the other Ferrari, then that is greater than Schumacher beating a Rubens Barrichello who was never going to ...

It might have passed some of you by, but if Alonso gets a top six finish he'll break Schumacher's record for career points scored Doesn't really count, though. Schumacher = 1,488 points. Alonso, post-Korea = 1,559 points. Yeah, but post-2009 points system kind of screws that record over completely ...

Hamilton told to give position back to Massa.

Well, strategy today looks interesting, especially with safety cars, there's plenty opportunity for it to get interesting yet.

Yes, the track was slippery, but it was silly. 2: Lewis Hamilton - His qualifying put him in the middle of the pack, and overall caused the events of today for him.

Sutil cuts across Maldonado and forces the start of a major collision - no penalty. 2: Lotus - Too late to pit Grosjean,...
