i gave you 5 stars to neutralize a little dorian

Thanks, yeah, I wonder why it got a 1 star rating.

Nascar fans.. they watch cars going in one circle for 200 laps and yet they don't get bored.

Vettel is a beast man, hopefully he gets the win.

Good thread. Red Bull look quick but i heard they are shredding there tyres on longs runs which could be a problem for them as they will be starting on the soft tyre (top 10 have to start on what they qualifyied with). As a Massa fan i am pleased that he out qualifyied Alonso although he has had to take an engine change. Big respect to Hispania for getting there car out there with utterly no testing and they were not so far behind the Lotus and Virgin. Force India are def the dark horse this year i think they should have got Fisi back.

I don't understand why teams hire drivers, can't they find a way to create some sort of "auto-pilot" on their cars, they gotta keep the steering wheel exactly in one position and just give it some gas. Shouldn't take a "professional driver" to do it.

they could radio control them FFS....

plus it would be safer and then they can go even FASTER!!!

Not a great race it looks like Alonso and Massa are fairly close on race pace so that could be an intresting battle. I wish the FIA didnt keep messing with the rules it seemed in 2007-2008 they got it just right 2 of the besy years I have ever seen in F1 then they change the rules in 2009 and again this year and it has made the races worse.
