Sorry Mark, we have no idea what's wrong with your KERS mate...

Only good thing about that race is that it propelled me to first in the most important competition in the history of online prediction leagues

Thanks Merc and Fettel for being predictable at least!

Oh sorry, let me explain. I turn on the race and browse the internet. Then when an announcer gets loud, I press rewind a couple times to see what happened. There were some good crashes and really dumb overtakes.

That sounds like a great way to watch (sadly). I woke up with my son, put him in his high chair and got him breakfast, put on the PVR'ed race and had him saying "go go racecars!" until I was to embarrassed to keep watching at normal speed and watched most on >>>. Try explaining to a 1 year old "Well, it should get good in a minute... just wait... THERE! A car did a pass!"

A few observations...
- That chain is unbelievably tacky, yes.
- All female staff are on Nico's side.
- Lewis looks like he's in street clothes, Nico still in nomex?

Pretty sure F1 needs to rebrand itself after "F1 race winner" Pastor Maldonado's showing this weekend. A few other thoughts from the race:

1. The Honda's seem to be getting less awful, I assume they're running closer to full power now.
2. Verstappen is looking pretty good so far, pretty poo poo luck up to this point, though.
3. Williams is as boring and effectively irrelevant as Red Bull is bad this year.
4. Jenson seems to be on the verge of laughing hysterically at all times whenever he is near a camera.

I felt really bad for max. He had some loving great passes. Drove that poo poo Renault engine into points, and it loving explodes on him. That kid is going to great things when he's not in a shitbox.

That picture is even more tragic than it first appears.

Ignoring Rosichello's 'holy gently caress that's nearly as terrible as Lewis's chain' watch, he's resting his hand on the 1st place trophy (assuming my eyes aren't hosed).

e: gently caress :argh:

I could see one of the big teams gunning for him to replace Alonso/Button/Kimi in the next few seasons. Riccardo could get poached from RBR though, too.

Why would he replace Button or Alonso? Didn't you see that he nearly scored points? He deserves better than a backmarker team.

Surely is thinking back to how much he was fighting for his seat at the end of the year last year and now he's jealous of Magnuson. He could be training for triathlons by the ocean and banging his girlfriend instead of driving a dog round. He knows he's at the end of his career.

I'm starting to agree with this. Massa did drive very well though, considering I always thought Bottas was quite a bit better than him.

Of course he is. Kimi bot has been programmed for humour in over 45 different languages, none of which are spoken by Earthlings.

I wonder if Ron has hired some on site therapists for the team...

Edit:

Realization: Ron would not hire a therapist, he would just turn the company into a cult, and that sounds like what Alonso is quoting...

Unless one of Lewis' sponsors is a "We buy your gold" place, I'll let Nico have the moral high ground on the assumption that it's an awful TW Steel, and part of his contract.

Also, the racist Daily Mail is suggesting that Our Lewis is some sort of woman-hating pig because he sprayed his winner's load in a woman's face. They even got some angry lesbian to comment on the photos to make it seem more serious than it is:

"Roz Hardie, chief executive of Object, a campaign on media sexism and 'sex object culture', said: 'The photographs appear to show that the woman is not just being splashed, but that the champagne is being very specifically directed into her face, which does not look like a voluntary piece of horseplay on her part.
'If this if the case we think Lewis Hamilton should apologise for his actions and think carefully about how he behaves in the future. For most people, it would be apparent that she is not enjoying it.'"
