Hrm. I've seen a better one that isn't all sped up and is subtitled with "SUPPLIES!", but that gets the joke across. :lol:

Updated ;)

:lol:

Win!

Boy, Alonso's gonna get along great with Massa... :unamused:

http://en.f1-live.com/f1/en/headline...02045940.shtml

Something tells me Alonso's gonna get on w/ Ferrari about as well as he got on at McLaren. Ugh.

I'm now rooting for Massa to take the DC next year. And then for him to smack Alonso with the trophy.

this. :lol::lol:

Oh, and this story is awesome (and sad)

http://www.crash.net/f1/news/152992/..._fall-out.html

I feel really really really bad for Massa now. Especially since the results of the race are going to stand. I can certainly understand his frustration at Piquet, Renault and even Alonso... I really hope Ferrari gives him a good car next year to win the championship (and hopefully he put Alonso into a wall once or twice for good measure).

While I totally feel for the way Massa got totally owned by Renault's bullshit, he needs to get his mind right. There's nothing he can do about '08 now, and he's lost '09 to a freak accident that was totally out of his control. He needs to channel all his angst and anger about how he keeps getting screwed into focus on how he's going to get healthy and show up to every round of 2010 to win.

He needs to give his pal Schumacher a call during the off season and get some tips on being a cold, calculating, race dominator. The best revenge he could ask for is to out pace, out qualify, and out score Alonso in every round on his way to a driver's championship.

Kubica to Renault confirmed

http://www.itv-f1.com/News_Article.a...47126&PO=47126

That's good news. Kubic's a good driver and deserves a good car. Since Ferrari and McLaren appear all booked up, I think Renault or RedBull are the teams that would help his career the best. Renault seems like a good match. And now that Alonso doesn't drive for them, and Flavio got fired... I think I can be a Renault fan! :lol:

Hey look, there's a chance that F1 in 2010 will finally be broadcast in full HD!

finally! Only 3 years behind everyone else

High Fidelity is still better.

Anyone else not excited about Kyle Busch in F1?

(File this under Silly Season 2011... since he's under contract w/ Gibbs thru 2010 and doesn't have a SuperLicense.)

I'm sure that'll work out well for Peter Windsor :rolleyes:

Jean Todt beat Ari Vatanen for the FIA presidency. Looks like the F in F1 still stands for Ferrari... but I've got to think Todt is going to be miles better than Max Mosley was.

Okay, let's try this again!

Brawn/Mercedes: Button / Senna?
McLaren: Hamilton / Rosberg
Ferrari: Alonso / Massa
Red Bull: Vettel / Webber
Renault: Kubica / Glock
Toyota: Nakajima / Kobayashi?
Toro Rosso: Buemi / Alguersuari
Williams: Barrichello / Hulkenberg
Force India: Sutil / Luizzi
USF1: Wurz? / ?
Virgin/Manor: Di Grassi / ?
Campos: Del La Rossa / Petrov
Lotus: Trulli / Heidfeld?
Sauber: Kovalainen? / ?

Raikkonen will have to go race rally cars unless Rosberg ends up at Brawn and he can go back to McLaren.

I'm going go with...

Brawn/Mercedes: Button / Rosberg
McLaren: Hamilton / Raikonen
Ferrari: Alonso / Massa
Red Bull: Vettel / Webber
Renault: Kubica / Glock
Toyota: Trulli / Kobayashi
Toro Rosso: Buemi / Alguersuari
Williams: Barrichello / Hulkenberg
Force India: Sutil / Luizzi
USF1: Wurz / Andretti
Virgin/Manor: Di Grassi / B Senna
Campos: Del La Rossa / Petrov
Lotus: Heidfeld / Kovalanien
Sauber: Leaving threatening voicemails for Frank Williams

Trulli has almost certainly been canned from Toyota and linked to a ride a Lotus next year.

Also, I just saw that Senna may end up at Campos... which does make your Rosberg @ Brawn and Kimi @ McLaren more plausible.

The only reason I think Toyota will resign Trulli is because they aren't going to get Raikkonen like they were hoping for. Its a longshot, but a lot of the lower order is somewhat of a longshot too. I also doubt Marco Andretti will make it to USF1. Maybe Grosjean will take up a drive with USF1 for a little bit.

I could see Trulli and Heidfield at Lotus though. The lower order is kind of hard to predict.

Looks like the Brazilian media is calling Senna to Campos as a done deal. Should hear an announcement soon.

He also twittered that he does have a drive for next year, but didn't say who (and the tweet was deleted shortly after).

'Guys, I'd like to thank you all for the great support!' Bruno wrote on Twitter. 'After many weeks of hard work and negotiations, me and my management finally made it! I'm very happy and I'd like to share this moment with you! Now it's time to focus and work hard in preparation for next season! I'd like to thank God, my family, friends and everybody who supports me for the extra strength given! Thanks!!'

Edit: Campos has confirmed it

Bob Varsha 12:20 in Q2:

"I dont know why President Todt is not here in FIA gear......maybe they dont make it in childrens sizes"

OH SNAP :lol::lol:

Yeah. Low blow indeed. :lol:

From the "RPM" segment it seems that USF1 is doing pretty well contrary to the reports we keep hearing. Sucks to lose Peter on the grid pre-race but look forward to seeing his team next year!

And now Bridgestone will be leaving at the end of next year.
