I don't know what this thing is, and I don't care. I'm just tired of seeing your stupid newbie av from 2011.

quote:

You probably have to think about it like this - A high tempered Spaniard dates a hot Italian model. There is love at first sight and the sex is great, but as the years passes, both of them realizes that the relationship is going nowhere - they can't seem to make the girl pregnant and have a baby because of her medical reasons, the Spaniard tries his best, he goes for hours and hours in the bed till both of them fall asleep from exhaustion, he is really great at it, even if she is hard to manage and won't listen to what the guy wants, he still handles her nicely even if her other boyfriends struggles with that, but the baby still won't come. They got close two times to adopting a baby, but one German guy always got chosen by the adoption agency instead of them. In the end, the Spaniard gives the girl last chance, because she has got a new doctor (Allison), and he might help them, but it doesn't work as fast as Spaniard would want to, because he knows that the best years are going behind him very fast, and he really badly wants the god damned baby. They have a few small fights here and there which in the end lead to splitting up. The girlfriend stays with the nice but somewhat quiet Finnish guy with whom they already had a baby back in 2007, so they might try it again, but the Finnish guy is bored and invites his best friend to join them in three-some, and as it happens - it's the German who stole the previous two babies from Spaniard, but the girl forgives him because he is really nice as well and might give her another baby. After few months the girlfriend sees in her Facebook page how much good things the guy says about his new girlfriend and how he has always admired her, so she starts to poo poo talk her ex in front of her family and other friends. The end.

Ferrari's new boss without his arm on Vettel's back but instead in his pocket. As an amateur psychologist, it's clear that Vettel has already been revealed internally to be a fraud and that signing him on was a massive loving mistake.



I've never seen Kimi smile that big for anything. Kimi Raikkonen, father of one.

I have breaking news. It turns out that the fraud... was Fernando Alonso.

http://www.grandprix247.com/2015/01/30/ex-ferrari-boss-says-alonso-not-a-good-test-driver/

quote:

“Alonso is a great race driver,” he said, “but not a good test driver. Each year, when he shook the car down, he said everything was perfect, then after a few months he began complaining. A real champion is the one who is able to manage the team.”

He said Alonso therefore does not compare with Ferrari’s last great driver.

“Ferrari’s problem in the last few seasons,” claimed Forghieri, “was not having another Schumacher.”

I think everyone in this thread owns Sebastian Vettel and Scuderia Ferrari an apology.

I've looked up the advanced stats and it seems that Ferrari won 16 WCCs before they hired Fernando Alonso, and zero (0) after. The numbers do not lie and they are bad for the Spanish dope fraud.

If Ferrari were looking for a true development driver and one who could bring them back to the winning path then they should've hired none other than Pastor Maldonado, after all, he was the man responsible for dragging Williams out of the gutter they were in and made them win a race once again after a 20 year drought.

He looks like he just put on a "big boy race suit" for the first time and it doesn't fit him.

The McLaren isn't awful, but is extremely disappointing considering it could have brought back a cool historic look.
The Merc is boring and I don't even mind the green but I think they did id in an ugly way here.
The Sauber really isn't that bad, and at least it's different, and easy to spot on track.
The Ferarri is pretty decent looking. I like the black.
The FI isn't too bad either, aside from being another boring silver-black-STRIPE-FOR-EXCITEMENT car.

"Don't tell me what to do with my ice cream, I know what I am doing, going for a poo poo!" That's Kimi's F1 legacy. A string of lovely catchphrases.

Whereas Vettel has massive legacy-cock, off which hangs four (plastic) WDC trophies with plenty of room left to hang more.
