Chris`I Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 Hamilton really doesnt like the car does he?! I heard he was off the pace, but bloomin 'ell! Hope the Maclaren boys pull that fingers out and get the car dialled in for him. Go Button though Quote

Go Button though Some special bits arrived overnight in a big box for the Mclaren, reported to be a new diffuser like the one's that are causing controversy Quote

Would be really good for a showcase which is what BBC HD is meant to be. Quote
M350ZB Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 Gonna defo be watching the race , prob the re-run mind but look forward to it and the bbc do have a good line up ! Quote
nixy Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 This weekend will be perfect in terms of Poker then Dave - you can finish your game and then watch the GP without bothering to go to bed at all! Quote

spr1ngy Posted March 27, 2009 Posted March 27, 2009 Should be very good this year! Glad they scrapped the "most wins" rule, and got it back to the original format, be interesting to see if the Kerrs systems works for the teams that use it, compensating for the added weight, BUT i think the cockpit adjustable front flap this year is ridiculous, considering they ranted about going "back to basics" all pre-season. My prediction, Rubens to win the title in the immensely fast Brawn GP car, (had one in our place a few weeks ago) and retire as a champion! Hamilton has not got much of chance this year i don't think, what with Mclaren being fined what was in essense, all their R&D money for this year, the car is too slooooow Quote
M350ZB Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 Button on pole, just watched the re-run on bbc red button , hamilton, no where to be seen, going to be an intresting season for sure Quote
Beavis Posted March 28, 2009 Author Posted March 28, 2009 Yes a very topsy turvy grid Hamilton will now start last as they are going to change the gearbox Quote
Arkwright Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 Come on you peeps. Enter the F1 competition over on the Z Club site. Too late for Australia to count but no-one's going to score very highly on this first event so you can easily make up your places. Quote
choptop Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 To early in the season to write off Hamilton at this stage, but what with Ferrari International Assistance, the new diffuser issue, and Brawn entering the season with a decent car who knows what the outcome will be. Quote
H5 Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 It was a very interesting qualifying session, Hamilton went from 2nd to 15th in the first one vary rapidly. I think it's great for the sport! Quote
M350ZB Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 Loved it when Richard Branson swore on the tv, , cracks me up Quote
Chris`I Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 WHAT AN EXCELLENT RACE! Wont reveal who won for those wanting to watch it later, but everyone will be happy in the UK today! Quote

M13KYF Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 great race. Have to say though driver of the day was Hamilton. To come from the back and end up 3rd with a car not on forum is amazing. Love the new scars, really aids for overtaking from the spectator point of view. Front and back wings look naff though Quote
