be nice wicka posted:joe's award claims (CLAIMS) that sauber originally planned to run bianchi and vdg together, but that ferrari pulled their support once bianchi got injured, and vdg's money alone wasn't enough to prop up the team Talking of joe's Award, it seems he hasn't advanced on his Photoshop skills since last season. I'm sure we're all looking forward to reading the first issue of "Cand Pax"

Hello. I'm just making an announcement that, with the release of the Honda aerokit, I will subject myself to one (1) IndyCar "race" this year. I think you all should, too. Thank you, Xau-- Wirth1000

Argh they've changed the one really useful bit of F1.com where it shows you all the coming race weekend's session times and you can click a button to switch between your time zone and track time zone. Now it's a rolex branded clock face that gives you the current time where you are and the current time at the track.

Sounds like Sauber's appeal hearing is just Sauber's lawyers being told off by the judges.

The Judges are just not letting them get away with the poo poo they were trying to pull the other day. They've said a couple of things that were blatantly untrue such as the team not being responsible for the super license and the team not being able to set a driver up at *short notice*.

I'm guessing that's neither Manor and only one Sauber, though I'm not entirely sure how only running one Sauber would actually help them. edit: Of course it could be only one McLaren, due to having run out of the relevant spare parts of Honda engines.

I mean with all that, I'm just thinking that 17 is probably a good number.

as i said earlier i dont have time for a write up on Red Bull that will be of any value, but since the season is starting here goes. Red Bull Red Bull, the company that made a drink that is even unhealthier than soda, decided that they wanted to enter the most expensive form of motorsport on the planet. Because... well? I guess a lot of cocaine addicts are F1 fans, and when you run out of blow Red Bull is the next best thing. So they bought some poo poo-rear end team that used to be owned by Ford and then used all their drug money to hire Adrian Newey the autistic chassis wizard to make really good cars. Because F1 is Satan’s favorite sport this worked out alarmingly well and The Fraud known as Sebastian Vettel won a whole shitload of races and a bunch of bullshit championships. Then he got cocky and left because he’s stupid and german. Also this guy works there I guess

Notice Me Kimi "Ice Overview With only 23 open wheeled races under his belt, Kimi entered Formula 1 driving for Sauber. He had a respectable rookie season given the performance of his car and was picked up by McLaren to partner David Coulthard, replacing the retired Mika Hakkinen. The McLaren was a fast but notoriously unreliable car, however Kimi managed to win some races and put up a respectable challenge for the title in 2005 losing out to Fernando Alonso. In 2007 Kimi left McLaren to replace the retired Michael Schumacher. Kimi piloted what was a very strong car in the the F2007. He won the Championship that year one point over Lewis Hamilton. The next two years saw a decline in the competitiveness of the Ferrari and therefore Kimi. He left Formula 1 after the 2009 season to pursue other racing interests. Kimi spent time racing in the World Rally Championship and various Nascar series but returned to Formula 1 because the car he was driving was too poo poo. Kimi returned with Evil Lotus and was pretty successful dragging the car to a win in both 2012 and 2013. Unfortunately for Kimi, Lotus couldn't pay him so he returned to Ferrari in 2014. He had a pretty bad year reuniting with his old team, and was thrashed by teammate Fernando Alonso. This year he is paired up with Sebastian Vettel, and the teammate battle will be interesting between them. Back-story Kimi has a typical Finnish demeanor which generally leads to humorous situations. Below are some of the more prominent things that may be mentioned. Ice Cream - At the 2009 Malaysian GP the race was stopped due to rain. While most drivers waited in their cars for the race to resume, Kimi changed in to casual clothes and treated himself to a snack. Having a poo poo - During a presentation at the 2002 Brazillian GP, Kimi was interviewed by Martin Brundle who asked why he missed the event. "Leave me alone, I know what I'm doing" - Kimi won the 2012 Abu Dhabi GP with Lotus, which was his first win since 2009 and Lotus/Renault first win since 2008. Offtrack in Brazil - Kimi missed a braking point and went off track at the 2012 Brazilian GP. Unfortunately for him the access road was blocked off and he couldn't re-enter the track without turning around. General Team Radio Shenanigans Monaco Boat - In the 2006 Monaco GP, Kimi's was forced to retired when his McLaren caught fire. He promptly left the track (did not return to the garage) and spent the rest of the race on his yacht that was docked nearby. Pics

quote:It seems that Giedo van der Garde may have done well in court in Australia but the word on the street in the paddock in Melbourne is that the Dutchman made a mistake during the winter and failed to apply to his national sporting authority for them to ask the FIA to grant him a Superlicence. This means that he cannot race in Melbourne because it takes 14 days for the process to happen. https://joesaward.wordpress.com/2015/03/12/oops/ It's the responsibility of the team to arrange the licenses, apparently. How does one dude seem to be so wrong so often?
