I seem to remember Hammy being immense there last year and wasn't far off pole. And you not ruining my party regarding Jenson v Lewis because i agree with what you said... Apart from Jensons chances at Suzuka

To be fair i think he has been pretty unlucky this year, his moves haven't been stupid, some maybe optimistic but i don't think that he deserves to be called an idiot for them. I think the trouble with him is he draws too much attention and he's always a talking point, mainly because he either has a bad race or an awesome one so he's always discussed. Tbh i think his confidence is low and has been since monaco, it's not natural anymore and he's second guessing himself and the media get on his back about things alot more than any other driver. I also think Jenson's getting to him a little, he suits the team more and i think McLaren would actually favour Jenson over lewis right now.

Still, from what i remember Lewis has always gone well at Suzuka, so i'm predicting a win and making Jenson look ordinary whilst Jenson blames balance problems with the car.

Thank fook we're off to Suzuka next, Lewis is going to win it

Quote from BlueFlame :

Yea, partly because he was on the inside before he turned in but I think Massa is so bitter for Hamilton and that he's losing his drive that he WOULD back into a Hamilton. Found it funny that Hamilton still came 5th with a DT and pitstop for the nose, Massa barely made it into the points.

He didn't really loose much time changing the nose because he was coming in for tyres anyway and Massa lost alot more time recovering from the pits with a puncture than hamilton with no wing.

Incident was Hamilton's fault but don't think he deserved a pentaly, did Di Resta get 2 drive throughs at Monaco and 1 at Canada? Did Webber get one at Monza? It's definately been his worst ever season, i think mostly due to his confidence being low right now and i also think it's the team trying to turn him into something more like Jenson i don't think McLaren suits him anymore and i'd like to see him go to red bull.

Quote from Klutch :

You completely, and utterly missed my whole entire point.

I'm saying hes a poser because he drives a fairly modified car(That isn't just aesthetics, it has suspension AND engine modifications), has not driven it on the track, and doesn't condone pushing it on the road.
WHAT IS THE POINT of driving a modified car if you're not going to push it?

To me, its like buying a turbo car and never hitting boost.

Who said he doesn't push it on road? Theres a difference between pushing a car on the road now and again (a blat) and doing burnouts, hi speed runs, racing to checkpoints on public roads in a group of im guessing 30 cars?

Gratz dude! Niall had a good result on sunday aswell.

Just sound like a bunch of pricks to me, fair enough having a little blat on your own now and then but to get into a big group doing burnouts and highspeed runs on public roads is just stupid.

I don't like the last corner but the rest are pretty good. chicane section was my favourite, they've hooked it up well.

Was looking at videos after my first trip to oulton (it's awesome) and found this:

Smart Arse!

Ah i see it now, i thought it was on a mirror £200?

The **** is it?

I think Lewis is driving like he's always driven just with less confidence because everyone is on his back all the time, coupled with Button getting lucky a few times and everyone saying he's the best strategist, tyre saver, yet he's not proved any of it, he's not lasted longer on a set of tyres than Lewis to make a difference and most of his stratergy calls were imo made by the strategists in the team. Everytime he's gone onto slicks before everyone else is i admit partly due to his feel for the conditions but mostly because he had nothing to lose, if he was in P1 when it started drying out i doubt he'd be first into the pits for a set of slicks.

I actually like Button as a person, he's a really likeable guy i think it's just reading the bullshit people spout about him is unbearable and it's got to the point where i'd rather Alonso or Vettel win than him just so i don't have to read it. I get why alot of people like him, it's because they can relate to making tyre calls etc but with Hamilton it's all natural and instinct which some can't relate to. People on here and other places talk absolute bollocks about Lewis all the time but no one will put their money against him, Jenson has a 10 point lead over Lewis and in amazing form yet has worse odds than Lewis to win the championship... Doesn't that tell you something? Like i've said In the Last few races he has impressed me but a little bit of luck has still been thrown his way that he's taken credit for.

Quote from dadge :

It highlights that on this occasion, Hamilton literally came out on top (of buttons car). He went for an ever closing gap and wrote his car off. it was the end of his race.

I'm not going into that again...

Can't remember it his pass tbh and that video doesn't highlight anything?

Quote from xaotik :

Also BUT just breezed passed both of them in the same lap once he caught up. That must've of stung.

Pity the director didn't focus a bit on what was going on in the midfield chaos, I kept seeing several cars within 0.5sec of each other.

That's the first time Jenson has done it to Lewis, how many times in 2 years has Lewis gone past Jenson like he's stood still? Any battle they've had Lewis has always come out on top.

Was a brave move by Jenson and i'd like to see him drive like that more often, can't help but feel Schumacher made a mistake because one minute he passed Lewis then in the braking zone at the next corner he's infront of Micheal???

The reason Button got schumi was because he got a massive run after schumi squeezed lewis onto the grass, jenson had half a cars overlap on schumi where in normal race conditions hamilton could barely get a front wheel past schumis rear. Was still a good move though but not exactly a schooling as it wasn't the same conditions hamilton faced.

Quit your whining then, it's not a game you can just jump into and play like F12010, takes car setup, game settings, wheel settings, car knowledge, track knowledge, driving position and practice before you get anywhere near the top guys not matter how much console experience you have.

Listen ****y face, if you don't like it then you know where the door is, i have the shittest computer known to man and can still play LFS easily so your either being a whiney little bitch or your computer is from the 80's.

If you like games to look pretty but not drive very well go play one of the many available console games, if you like to have your pants pulled down and drive cars with shit physics go and play iRacing, if you want the imo most realistic driving simulation on the market but your prepared to compromise a little visually and development wise then play LFS.

Flame can i haz that spa image please

He said he saw him but he thought it was his rear wing!

There was little or no spray coming out of the chicane for jenson to see him, jenson even admitted he saw hamilton but thought it was his own rear wing, guess everyone should just drive in single file when it's wet, if we go by what you saying, no one can tell if your making a move. Was lack of awareness from button, he obviously knew hamilton was behind him and when someones behind you trying to pass you, you have to pick your line early, you can't go onto the right side of the track then come back to the left when someones making a passing attempt.
