    Gotta love the blind man shades and the killer look,lololo, reminds me of "dumb and dumber" when one of them goes to the bar and puts on " the killer look", lololo ...and shortly after kills the rare bird with the cork, lololo

    Senna hated testing. Usually went home to Brazil in the winter. Left it to Prost and later Berger. Prost was one of the best as was MS.

    He's for sure not my favorite driver, but I don't hate him like I did before. He seemed like a robot when he was with McLaren. At least he's himself now.

    Many of us may not "like" him, but he's a young man with the entire world at his feet. And one hell of a fine jockey too.

    Blind man shades?

    "Questionable" fashion sense?

    To us old fuddy-duddies, sure.

    But I'd bet there's not a soul here who wouldn't trade places with him.......

    Cheers,
    Ian

    Careful with statements like that...soon he'll do something incredibly stupid again and you'll think ''ah...that's why I didn't like him''.

    :D

    Sorry, but they used to test year round in the 80s and 90s not just over winter, and not just at McLaren, but also Lotus. Honda engineers very much valued Senna's input. Prost was a great tester but so was Senna.

    I recall many a post race interview when asked, "what's next?" he'd (all of them really) respond with "heading to Ricard/Estoril/Magny/Silverstone to catch up with the test team."

    RIP Ayrton,

    I didn't say he wasn't great, he surely was. He simply didn't like to test. I'm looking for a quote but I've read it several times from many sources. He hardly tested in the winter. It was usually Prost or Berger.

    don't get me wrong - he seems like a nice enough guy - but how can you ask that question in Ferrari forum?

    Great question....there's a little more behind it than asking about an opposing driver on a Ferrari forum.

    REALLY long story...

    13 Pages... If Lewis is not your favorite driver then who is?
    Neuro to say your bans are one sided would be an understatment! You'll let boarderline racist/homophobic statements here but when someone rebutts you ban them?

    A good number of us have been banned for reacting (Ian, Aircon, myself and others).

    So it's most definitely NOT one sided.

    If this is your self-reflection then the bans do not do what they intended to do.
    Instead of questioning why they became personal and change the way of posting according to that it is again taken as an unfair treatment and you present yourself as victim...So nothing new

    I have to say more moderating as been working just fine for me......we had a whole month of almost no crap talk....(hell, i'm even beggining to like Lewis....ok, maybe not) can't get much better than this..

    ..on the other hand it can....why not give it a few more months!!! :)
