I just noticed the thread for the whole 2004 season was 17 pages. We were a lot more efficient back then.

Fag Boy Jim posted:I think we were much more at each others throats in those old threads- these days, most of us are at least somewhat united in despising RBR/Vettel. Vettel brought us all together. Even as close as two years ago we hated each other and El Hefe was on any decent persons ignore list.

Gozinbulx posted:Let's do this poo poo. Same on Android, buggy as poo poo - glitchy in places, text warps on menus, it's loving mad. The only thing they've got right is the reduced price from the previous years, but still.. I baulk at paying more than 99p for any app  Not sure I'll bother until they sort the bugs out. Half the races I won't get to watch live anyway, and I can't see a definitive feature list that answers my 'can I retrospectively view a race on the timing app' question. Have past versions of the 'funky' app allowed for that? For reference, the last time I bothered to use a live timing app was when it was still totally free and didn't have the track layout gimmick lark in it.

Sooooo Renault are acting confident http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/112888 Teams are allowed to run full power. They're claiming all the software bugs have been ironed out on the dyno... We'll have this confirmed as soon as practice gets going.

Webber's not a dickhead, and even if he hates Helmut Marko with good reason he's probably still good buddies with 95% of the team and is still being paid to do corporate events for them like Coulthard, so he's not going to slag them off.

Can everyone repost their predictions for the new thread. It makes laughing at your terrible opinions much more fun. Don't look at mine from last year.... My predictions, for posterity: A Renault powered car does not podium before race 6 Hamilton to win wdc, merc wcc Button stays classy but the new kid gets the points Vettel matures in adversity and becomes worst thread moral sweetheart Alonso drags another shithouse Ferrari to places it doesn't deserve Massa has a good first half, but drops away as Williams can't keep up the dev pace Kamui gets points Chilton doesn't Bldr lives up to his namesake, no points until race 3 Force India win a race Sauber continue their slide into the back markers

For those of us in the US, NBCSN is doing a pre-season show 30 minutes before FP1, which will air!

The last "previous thread" link is broken because it says ?ttreadid instead of just one 1. Also this poo poo is actually on TV unlike Elementary (ACC Basketball  ) and maybe even live!

They're showing a special on Sebastian Vettel right now on NBCSN on how he's so likable. I advise that you goons stay away.

I dunno, I hate that Vettel wins all the time as much as the next guy, but he does seem like a genuinely nice and down to earth person. All of his interviews are pretty good.

He actually does which makes me hate it more that he acts like a whiny rear end in a top hat on the track so much also he's boring

Seems I missed the first page, but I'm sure I would've just brought you guys down. As seems to be tradition now, I've had my customary pre-Aus GP podium dream and it'll be ROS, HAM, MAS. Ferrari won't make the top 5, RAI will retire. P1 in a matter of minutes!!

Yeah, you can watch back timing on races after they've finished, so you can sync it up if you are watching recorded. You can also pause it live, if you pause during a race on sky or whatever, its pretty cool. Main problem I found was if I was watching late, opening up the timing without it spoiling the result was drat near impossible

Seeing the results on NBCSN, it always tickles me that Max came 23rd out of 22 cars.
