More like NASCAR. I haven't seen a less gentleman motorsport with such awful on and off track etiquette than what I see in NASCAR. Worse part is, it almost seems as if they encourage it.

They make Montoya look like a pretty nice guy.

Difference is that in NASCAR everyone pretty much expects it so it doesn't upset people most of the time. Completely different racing culture, but at least the officials let the drivers actually race each other. It's when drivers (usually Joey Logano) do stupid shite like use the guy in front of them as the brakes (and any NASCAR fan here can tell you that he gets away with it) that it ruins the show a bit.

Personally I don't really like the whole "Have At It Boys" crap because it just encourages idiotic driving. Just let the drivers race and penalize them for being douchebags, I ask every race official (especially F1 officials) this, how hard is it to let the drivers race?!

Anyway.

Proof that not Australian drivers are not humorless, angst-ridden #2 drivers.

Button thinks his new teammate will be more aggressive on-track than Hamilton.

"So Vitaly, how do you feel about the team saying Bruno Senna has energized them more in one race than anything you or your slightly bored ex-teammate did this year?"

Under Arnoux is Jarier, while the cheeky-looking one is Pironi.

I had a look through Forix to see if I could identify the mystery drivers. There are two Tyrrell drivers in the picture; Tyrrell's drivers in 1980 were Jean-Pierre Jarier and Derek Daly ("no, really, I'm French, so I am, let me in the picture! Ah go on, you will..."), when the driver on the far right is clearly Didier Pironi - a Tyrrell driver in 1979. The entry list for the Long Beach Grand Prix matches who I thought the other drivers were.

So, L-R: Jabouille, Laffitte, Tambay, Depailler, Jarier, Arnoux, Pironi. The Professor was still a student. And a few hours in the corner wearing a big pointy had with a "D" on it for whoever wrote 1980 on the picture.

Also Tambay wasn't in F1 in 1980, Prost replaced him at McLaren!

Barbazza · Post by **Barbazza** » 05 Sep 2011, 19:56

I like the fact that Jarier is the only one in the picture looking faintly disappointed, as if he knew even at this stage that he'd be the only one in the picture never to win an F1 race. The caption for Arnoux should therefore be 'Look at me! I'll be driving a Ferrari in 4 years and you'll be in one of the ugliest cars ever made!!'

James1978 · Post by **James1978** » 05 Sep 2011, 21:21

Can't think of any decent captions but Rene Arnoux is such a damn legend.
