st3ph3n Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Interesting spread of placings today for the Q. Should be an interesting race. Link to comment
david_taylor Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 BMW have really came out of knowwhere. Makes it more interesting. Should be a good race tomorrow! Link to comment
thewelsho Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Should be a good race tomorrow! Can always hope, but don't hold your breath. Very dissapointed with DC's showing: a lowly 17th place. Time to pack it in I tihnk - just embarressing yourself. Link to comment
oobster Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 BMW had to be running Kubica's car light surely? Looking good for a decent race tomorrow. Link to comment

Yeah the new qualifying format doesn't always show a car or driver's true colours. I suppose that helps to spice it up a bit but its a shame F1 needs gimmicks to make it more exciting, still it fails though. Link to comment
st3ph3n Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 I took a wee gamble on BMW this year in the Fantasy F1 I'm doing. Took Heidfeld as one of my drivers. Thought the car would be good and he'd be the better of the two. Link to comment
oobster Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Bit of a boring race after all. The Button/Coulthard stramash, and Alonso's brake-testing Lewis was the only slightly interesting incidents. ITV's coverage was quite poor too - although that MAY be partly due to whoever they were getting the feed from (host broadcasters I assume). Link to comment

ITV's coverage was quite poor too - although that MAY be partly due to whoever they were getting the feed from (host broadcasters I assume). Agreed with your points and perhaps would add the start off as well to the "interesting incidents". ITV are at the mercy of the local broadcaster, they are always complaining about it when the director cuts to the "wrong" scene. Was good to see Hamilton's race ruined at such an early stage. saved us having to listen to that muppet Allen go on and on and on about him. Two shocking errors by him though - bogged down at the start and then rear-ending Alonso - luvely! Link to comment
p1ggm Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 boring, wsb made up for the days tv thou Link to comment
oobster Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 ...and then rear-ending Alonso - luvely! The way I seen it Alonso lifted but since it would appear that McLaren aren't going to complain (and therefore see the Spantard's telemetry), then we'll never know (sadly). Link to comment
jcscoob Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 (edited) Ofeck wot has happened to GP, thought the "new rules" were meant to make for a wee bit more excitement !! Two race's in a row and they have both been utter tiesh...... Edited April 6, 2008 by Jcscoob Link to comment
colzo Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Boring .... and this was supposed to be a track with overtaking opportunities. Felt sorry for Hamilton...... NOT! Link to comment
thewelsho Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 (edited) BTTT for: Barcelona GP In a race that is more often than not won by the pole-sitter, Lewis Hamilton has had to settle for 5th on the grid while Kimi Riakonen stuck it on pole. David Coulthard continues to dissapoint: while third fastest in morning practice, he failed to make the cut in Q1, blaming traffic. Here's an idea David: DON'T pin your hopes on on last flying lap, that way, if you do hit traffic, you can get another go at it. Barcelona is not one of the over taking circuits (are there any?) so I can't see being anything other than a dissapointing procession for the race. Edited April 26, 2008 by TheWelsho Link to comment
RA Dunk Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 just finished watching qualifying just now, highlight of it was watching Alonso`s pit crew celebrating getting pole for the whole of two seconds before being knocked off The Mclarens just dont seem to be cutting it with the big boys anymore though Link to comment
