Superb, I'll be returning to this one again in the future! - great selection, solid mixing - you'll probably win your own competition with this, it's certainly deserving....

I understand about the problems with GMM as raised by that reporter a few months ago, but the hysteria surrounding any post by GMM is unfounded; I've followed any story that has GMM attribution more closely since, & 80-90% of the stories "check out"

Your common sense bullshit detector needs to be applied when they write about rumours and comments that are cobbled together from interviews on TV etc.. to read some of the comments about GMM one would think that they do nothing but spread false information, and that's just not the case.

Hardly surprising, given that there are 3 times as many British F1 champs as the next leading country

Well have no fear Mark; soon they will figure the tyres out, and we'll have a regular old championship.

I think the best possible team for any driver to get into is McLaren - they are always at the front.

Hmm - I would say half a wheel, given the amount of wheel banging incidents I have seen.

But anyway, there are plenty of ways it could have happened naturally; I don't follow GP2, so was more after an actual confirmation of my question from someone who does, because if he did do it intentionally it surely would have been big news in that series. He's definitely not afraid of muscling his way through the field though - I'm sure we'll see some fireworks in future; loved Grosjean and him battling in China

True - but when both wheels are side by side, they turn in the same direction, at the same speed. It's a weird one...

I would assume that the steering was broken, but it looked fine - Maldanado steered into Hamilton at Spa last year, so there's a precedent; it could be his go-to move when he gets pissed off.

I don't know that much about Venezuelan politics, apart from watching the revolution will not be televised, which paints the Chavez regime in a positive light, and lends some legitimacy to the Leftist uprising; it's a shame to hear so many stories that the socialist movement has not delivered on it's remit to improve the situation of your countries poor and unify the country...

There's a bit missing - the regulations [Drafted after McLaren stopped on track in Canada '10] also say you have to make it back to the pits, and are only allowed to stop if there is a "force majoure", thus the combination of both logically requires that you have at least 4l of fuel left to do your inlap and take a fuel sample. As the fault was human error, and could have been fixed when they knew about it, it's not considered "force majoure" - the bit that is surprising to me is that it applies across the board, I would have assumed that each session stands alone, and would have expected Q3 times to be deleted...

On your other comments - you cant use 2 fuels, they get scrutineered at any time, not just the end of Q3. Interestingly the fuels also have to be within +- 12 degrees C of ambient too, to prevent supercool fuels being used, also, the fuels are supposed to be normal road car fuels, although it's pretty clear that they have at least some enhancement above what goes in the pumps on the forecourts - I'm not sure how they regulate what is considered a deviation....

Does anyone know if he just steered into him? It does not look like his steering was broken...

Actually it does; the point being that it's not just about the tyre falling to pieces, it's also about switching them on - IE: creating a "lottery" of which team gets it right on the day, I think the pole position effect is a reflection of clean air at the front allowing a car to be less harsh on the tyres.

Niiiice.

Yup. What I hear when Skyjake speaks:

Depends on the payoff - as an Icon for the city it could bring in more than it costs; hard to quantify what that is worth over its lifespan - look at the Eiffel tower, for example...

Why not hook up with a VJ? Could be an exciting project...

Crashes? - not crashes per se, action. Overtaking, mistakes - smelling the rubber... it's a good corner for forcing errors.

Bringing a pushbike will allow you to see all the racetrack, and get around from corner to corner as you please; if you walk, you'll be knackered and will only see 1/10th of what you can with a bike. Plus, you can take it on track for a lap when the race has finished!

No need to buy grandstand tickets if you want to spend less - from a spectator POV for guaranteed action I would say Vale/Club - a tricky braking zone, there's bound to be stuff happening, I saw some good action with the GT cars when I was there at the first race of the new circuit. Protip - bring a bike and travel light.

Woo! Another /r/formula1er!! - yeah I love bringing my bikes to race tracks, it's amazing how much more access you get - Re: Silverstone it was a special open day at the track shortly after they completed the new circuit; £5 to get in and the WEC was on too, so got to see some pretty tidy racing, bonus! ..
