^^^Holy Craps! Exactly what I was hoping to see- Thanks!
watching Q1 right now.
Prediction time:
Qualy:
Vettel
Hamilton
Alonso
Webber
Race:
Vettel
Alonso
Webber
Hamilton
Champion: Alonso
Alonso said five races ago that five podiums gets him the world championship and that probably holds true for tomorrow. The first corner in Abu Dhabi is also one of the easiest on the F1 calender so conventional wisdom says that overtaking will be very difficult.
And, just for kicks... last lap, Brazil 2008:
Congrats to Vettel and Red Bull for an exellent race and the Championships.It was an enjoyable race to watch.
Would have sucked to see Schumacher lose his head on lap1.
ps Fuck Fred
Couldn't believe what I read when I went to planetf1.com! Crazy stuff, glad SV won.
stay classy, alonso. a twat until the end:
what a fucking douche bag....Quote:

Watching the replay now, fred overrunning the corner on lap 52 in a failed pass attempt =teh funneh
I watched the North American premier of the Senna documentary at Sundance this evening. If you get the chance to see it, you really should make the effort.
kubica in pretty serious conditions following a rally car accident:

Total bummer. It was looking like this year might have been his year.Quote:

solid driver
Total sux
Poland on edge for sure.
+vibes+
That sucks....
Kubica Will Require Further Surgery. Looks like he'll probably be out for the season. Thoughts on replacement? Senna? Grosjean? Heidfeld would be my choice.
Was just reading this on Planet F1...massive bummer. Probably the only F1 driver that would race for minimum wage. Hulkenberg would be a good choice, after his Brazil performance, but sounds like VJ has a tight grip on him. Grosjean is a total douche bag, Heidfeld is solid. Senna? Would be nice to see him in a faster car to see if he has consistent speed.Quote:

i'm proudly wearing kubica's hat from his BMW days. he's been my favourite underdog since then.
edit: this is what autosport had to say in their 2010-recoup issue:

Saw this in the comments on P-F1:
"Kubica won't be back for quite a while. The 26-year-old suffered a sub-amputation of his right forearm and lost a significant amount of blood while he was trapped in his Skoda Fabia rally car for more than one hour, while emergency crews tried to extricate him. Kubica is reported to have lost control and made contact with a barrier, which pierced the footwell of his car. He also sustained compound fractures to his right elbow and shoulder, as well as more to his right leg."
Hulkenberg or Heidfeld would be good choices. Sounds like Hulkenberg might not be available. If so I would go with Heidfeld as a replacement. I think he's the best choice to salvage the season. He is consistent and if the car is good he will get good results. I'm surprised he's out of F1 considering some of the other drivers on the grid.
^ there's always Kimi waiting on the sidelines.
video of the stage from those right behind him. first vid of the bunch. they get to the scene of the crash ~3:30

You knew this was coming http://www.planetf1.com/driver/18227...over-F150-name
F150th Italia doesn't exactly roll off the tongue...ITALIA Hundo Fitty woulda been better
Computer animation of crash.
He's a lucky, lucky boy.
Bump.
Lots going on in the Malaysian GP yesterday. But much of it seemed artificial rather than real racing. Entertaining though.
Looks like we're in for a repeat of 02. Vettel should have the WDC clinched by Silverstone.
Ferrari or McLaren should bankroll one of the smaller teams like Hispania or Lotus and make it their job to take out Vettel. That would make the "races" at least mildly interesting. Well except Monaco. Nothing can save the world's most expensive parade.
