  1. Nick Clegg is a nice guy, but that's the trouble with the LDs: They give a great talk, but when they get any real power they just get a bit lost and people suddenly remember why no-one votes for them. That said, I like Tim Farrow as a politician, and I can see them matching any of Labour's results were we to get a snap GE.
  2. No-one gives a toss about Heathrow, not really. The vast majority of sensible non-tree hugging people really don't care at all.
  3. Silly, silly man. Everyone knows you don't stuff in politics because of principles!
  4. Or drive in a straight line and not into your teammate.
  5. Sidewall number is a percentage of the width, so for example a 200/50/18 would have a sidewall 100mm tall and a tyre 400/50/18 would have a sidewall 200mm tall (made up sizes, obviously!).
  6. Yep i read them, do you I'm not convinced you understand what 'least deserving' actually means. It means the person who deserved it the least, not that the person didn't deserve it at all.
  7. I'd give bonus points for Roscheat over Rosberg.
  8. Do you even read my posts I said, quite clearly, Nico deserved to win.
  9. Hopefully the new tyres next year will be more like the WEC ones, where they do still drop off quickly but you can run them at 100% for much longer, rather than one decent lap killing them via the heat produced.
  10. I'm not saying Lewis deserved to win the championship: He didn't, as he didn't have as many points. My point is rather that Nico is an average driver with a decent car, who won via default.
  11. Not in Malaysia, no. He was cruising round to an easy win.
  12. Fastest laps mean nothing, all it takes is for the driver to risk blowing his engine up at the end of the race when the car is nice and light. Zero point doing that.
  13. First we had hood the other day, now muffler. Kids these days, tsch...
  14. Massa couldn't get near Alonso, Webber couldn't get near Vettel, Nico can't get near Lewis unless the car breaks Definitely a lot about the car, but Nico is not a worthy winner. For the past 10 years or so, the winner usually has been. Vettel in the RB was imperious, like Schumi in the Ferrari used to be. Boring races, but utterly mesmerising to watch the laps.
  15. Team bosses voted like this: 1 Lewis Hamilton, 234 points (No change) 2 Max Verstappen, 183 (Up two places) 3 Nico Rosberg, 176 (No change) 4 Daniel Ricciardo, 133 (Up five) 5 Sebastian Vettel, 90 (Down three) 6 Fernando Alonso, 67 (No change) 7 Kimi Raikkonen, 61 (Up three) 8 Sergio Perez, 52 (No change) 9 Valtteri Bottas, 26 (Down two) 10 Carlos Sainz Jr, 25 (New entry) How the hell Wehrlein isn't on there ahead of Vettel or Kimi I've no idea.
  16. The ending was amazing, even though there was only one canon one and you had to play MP to get the bestest ending.
  17. Think I'd just get a second hand one tbh.
  18. He deserves to be champ only because he had the most points. Everyone knows that he only won because Lewis had the misfortune to be stuck with Nico's crappy mechanics who couldn't change a spark plug properly, even Nico knows he won by default rather than talent. Nico will be a forgotten champ very quickly.
  19. How anyone who likes cars could pick a Veyron over an F1 is beyond me. Ugly barge bus vs the most intoxicating driver's car of all time?
  20. MPS3 are gash, don't even go there. They're shopping trolley tyres, you don't want them on a sporty car XL tyres are fine, even I can't tell any difference on the road in use.
  21. Wherever is cheapest, really. Have a Google and pay by credit card, you're safe that way
  22. Sadly they're Subaru specific sizes, and a bit hardcore if I'm honest At Eagle F1 prices, I'd still get the MPSS over them. Or maybe try the MPS4?
  23. And I've only ever had great service from them, even when an internal HDD went pop 11mths in. Changed it out straight away, happy to let me do it without affecting warranty, great company to deal with.
  24. He doesn't need that much speed, and if there's cash to burn then it's better going into the gfx card than storage. I'd rather wait an extra 10 secs on boot (who turns their PC off these days anyway?) and gain 10fps.
