Ron's not here to start this so here's to him.
LH fastest in the morning session. Some mention of the data theft but no mention of the law being involved.
It took 40 minutes into the practice for the SpeedTV announcers to start speculating ad nauseum IMVHO.
You had to know that was coming. It's funny, I was watching a National Geographic special on 'Ultimate Factories' last night that profiled the Ferrari factory and it mentioned 'industrial espionage' as the #1 concern of the company. Switching topics a bit, did anyone else enjoy the montage after the break set to Gary Numan's "Cars"? It was pretty cool...
I think the weather could play a big role in Sundays GP, the wind can certainly cause upsets in qualification. So, while Im thinking about it heres a link to the weather forecasts for Silverstone: http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/uk/em/towcester_forecast_weather.html Looking forward to being there on Sunday
i think it'll be a Ferrari 1-2 this weekend. Mac will maybe fall back, to try and show they didn't gain anything from those info they obtained.
BTW, it's crazy how quickly teams fall back a bit. After looking like world dominators for 3 races, now we see McLaren slipping all over the place and falling back in the field somewhat. Ferrari suddenly looks like the class of the field again. Fortunes change quickly in F1...
10 minutes left... 1.Kimmi 2.Massa 3.Ralf????? 4.Lewisiño .. 8.Alonso. Massa is a tad faster than Lewis... Kimmi got real close with 1:20:639...but hamilton remains with the fastest lap on P1. *edit* nope...Kimmi is fastest overall too... We are looking good!!!!!!
Does Hobbs visit F Chat or something? He's suddenly taken to calling Massa 'Phil'. That was started on F Chat by (IIRC) tifosiron.
It's also good to see Kimi starting to shine through again!!!I bet he has the theme to Rocky in his IPod whilst driving
Looking good, looking really good indeed! Did anyone capture Kimis last fast stint with harder tires, was it under 1.21 aswell ?
I noticed that too. Fchat rules. KR FM RS LH JT FA ROSBERG WURZ WEBBER DAVIDSON Looks like MCL is OK in sector 1, but sectors 2 and 3 they are not fast enough today.
KR Went purple in S2 his last lap and the time for that sector is what's posted at 34.4. I believe the time for the whole lap was under 1.21 as well.
Thats great! Only one under 1.21, and he did it with both sets of tires. Sofar it looks good, if we assume these are the correct perfomance times, Kimi will be winning with a 30 sec marginal ! Can't wait for the qualifying and race!
...good to see Kimmi getting to grips with the car... That lap was really fast!...Shumassa aint that bad either...kinda slow compared to Kimmi but faster than Hamilton... Forza Ferrari
