Are you running an ad blocker? or flash blocker?

[T Pot]

Nope. Running it in a fresh install on chrome.

[Dudley]

Weird. You should have a live video between those 2 things.

Couple of narrow losses for Brad there, Lad's done himself proud.

And I'm happy because he's really not that much quicker than me in a kart, so I look good.

[T Pot]

Ah well nevermind, cheers. Been watching this Sky F1 stream. There's been some bloody exciting races. Button vs Massa was a bit close.

[T Pot]

Fuck me! DC cutting it fine!

[JPR]

Also Excitement and drama in the WEC finale.

BBC cost cutting means F1 might be highlights only in the future

I hope this doesn't happen but with the increased costs of Match of the Day and Wimbledon along with previous sacrifices of their golf and horse racing teams it's not completely out of the question. If it does I can see myself drifting away from the sport, highlights aren't the same especially when presented by a reduced team and watching it via a stream won't be worth it.

[probeater]

I can see myself drifting away from paying the licence fee tbh. Barely watch TV these days.

Only two months late but here's a snap of the Singapore race (pretty fun seats) & one from the hotel room (bit of a waste of a great room given I had tickets!)

Well they were kind of a stupid idea ..

Who was going to make them and who was going to buy them ? No one.

The FIA have mandated that the manufacturers must supply a number of team now. Redbull will get their engine. This was all smoke and mirrors, it was never going to happen.

Guys -

Rosberg

Hamilton

Vettel have been picked in my work league.

I'm next pick, who do I go for? I should win the title with a 4th place finish.

I'm thinking Bottas, but he's let me down a couple times this year. Is this a Williams track? I see they both scored podiums last year.

Or its Kimi really and hope he gets that solid 4th.

Tough call this.

[SeanR]

left-field pick: Ricciardo or Verstappen

[SMD]

I'm going this weekend, pray for rain.

[mexos]

It's a fantastic event to go to. Really loved it. Where are you sitting?

[SMD]

North grandstand though I don't know where the seats will be till I get there thanks to the fun I had booking...

I assume you've already had to make your choice, but the P1 times for Williams aren't great. Kimi is looking the most promising so far!

[Sidewaysbob]

Yeah, I'd being going for kimi before the Williams boys.

[Baring]

Yeah I chose Kimi. Deadline was Thursday 4pm.

The chap in first got a help from his mate so got Bottas. (his mate chose Will Stevens as 5th pick)

I'm 3 points behind, quite looking forward to it

The people who chose the Mercs can also win if both Bottas and Kimi retire.

[SeanR]

bottas to take out kimi

everyone loves a bit of finn on finn action.

[SMD]

WHERE AM I

WHERE IS THIS SHUTTLE GOING

[SMD]

WHERE AM I

WHERE IS THIS SHUTTLE GOING

You'll all be pleased to now I finally got to my seat.

Um, wheres the GP3 race?

I mean GP2.

[SMD]

The McLaren sounds fucking awful.

[myoozikk]

Wow Seb out in Q1.

[layten]

Vettlel.

[myoozikk]

Engine problem by the look of that video.

[myoozikk]

Mega lap from Nico there. Fair play.

[Sidewaysbob]

Beaten on pace, I'm starting to think Nico has actually got his mojo back. Lewis isn't just cocking around out there.

[myoozikk]

Lewis keeps talking about a change on the car since Singapore. I wonder if the tyre pressure thing is effecting him a lot?

[SMD]

The GP2 cars sound so much better in person than the F1 cars. Those Mercs though...
