F1 GROSSER PREIS SANTANDER VON DEUTSCHLAND 2012: RACE

So it's been a few times now that the radio transmitions at Ferrari are in italian.

is that legal ? i thought they were obligated to do it in english.

 

Who cares if they were *all* doing that. That has nothing to do with overtaking while off track.

If it happened mid race he wouldn't of got a slap of the wrist he would of got a drive thru, why should it be a slap of the wrist because the race is over? Button was robbed 2nd place at least give him his place back?

 

no rules to that effect, that i'm aware of!

 

"We" thought that was the case too - Obviously not.

I'm sure the other guys have an Italian speaker listening in just in case.......

 

Of course it's legal. The FIA monitors all radios. The radios are encrypted. They are not meant to be heard by other teams or fans.

They are only giving us a few radios to try n improve the show. The radios are delayed thanks to Kimi or was it Montoya that swore LOL

 

Agreed, it could go either way I guess.

Had he squeezed him and/or taken 'em both out there'd be much howling.

Let 'em race!

Seb to Jenny; "I didn't know if you were inside or not, so I left you room....."

Hmmm. As the Viz likes to say, "all depends on who's ox is being gored."

 

LOL!!! That's right, I remember now

That's why I believe he will get a penalty because Button left him room.

 

some good points made about (our favorite ) massa, was his clipping another taking his own front wing off at the start (was all that turn 1 carbon-fiber, which likely cut hamiltons tire), and massa again involved in groseans wing damage shortly after ....go massa!

 

Yes.

 

Tooned back on

Perhaps the Scuderia have hired Flavio as team strategist...there is the Zo connection!

 

+1

 

So true! Alonso had a nice race today. I believe he will be wdc this year.

I'm amazed at the pace flip flop from the rest of the field though, different teams took turns being the fastest on track and it's all based on how their car was reacting to fuel weights and tires. Bah, oh well. Schu had a nice quickest lap but was disgustingly slow all prior stints, that last 15 or so on softs was blistering though.

Kimi should have place higher IMO, he ran a very nice race considering.

Perez and Kob, just another example of the Pirelli lottery ticket lol. They were very fast the whole race.

Grosjean, Ham, Rosberg, Massa all deserved better as they were running very nice lap times. Too bad really.

 

Sky coverage is over and still no decision... They have till 6pm local time so it could be a while yet.

 

Anyone finding this season utterly crazy? We had both Williams being lapped yet that car won on merit at a dry race!!!???! Just weird.

 

Sky currently doing a nice piece on Force India....... Interviews with both jockeys & mechanics etc - Very cool.

 

thats one long decision making lol

i want the sky touchscreen tv and watch the race with georgie

 

We need Kimi back

 

DONE! 5th place for Vettel

Oh well they must have judged he was fully aware of what he did.
