I certainly wouldn't want that to happen. Rather, something like Schumacher/Silverstone or Webber/Tasmania.

Just something to tone down the incessant fanboyism.

I share Lucius' and Foli's sentiments.

Wishing ill upon Webbo will only lead to more rampant fanboyism!

Still, said in jest or not, and I hope it was in jest, the sentiment was ugly.

This will be my first first season shared with F1-GAF, and bring on the wildly varying, harshly argued but ultimately tolerant* differences of opinion, I say - all in the shared love of motor sport.

* I draw the line at Schumacher-love, but I welcome his presence - every drama needs a bad guy, after all

Super dumb question that's probably been beat to death in this thread so I apologize:

...how do I watch all this stuff live if I'm in the US? Is there any legit quality stuff I can pay for to get access?

Interesting front wing

Eschewing the stepped nose leaves the wing sitting awkwardly high, doesn't it? Would take something clever to make that work, I think.

Had forgotten they weren't using KERS this year. Also interesting.

Despite it being unfortunate mclaren is a cunt and we have to put up with his presence in this thread, the backlash against him over the last two pages has been really nice to see. F1-GAF is full of good peeps <3

Also, I might have another cheeky wank over Dilly's avatar now. Thanks for that Lucius.

It does look very high. Then again the whole car looks like it is riding quite high up, maybe it will look better at a normal ride height?

The Marussia still hasn't passed it's crash tests...
http://twitter.com/#!/andrewbensonf1

Marussia not yet passed final crash test. Pat Symonds: "has passed an &#8216;unobserved&#8217; test but performing inconsistently in observed tests..."

Symonds: "fail marginal but to completely eradicate that margin are taking time we have to ensure we have an even more robust solution&#8221;

That last one is my facebook timeline picture.

With the bottle out of the shot, of course.
We should be best friends.

Also, you know our very own SunhiLegend had an anigif RT'd by the man himself?

What a horrible thing to say.
Agreed.

Even though he didn't enter, ANDY_098's pic wins, posted in it's full-res because shit, it deserves to be:

And as the #1 Webber fan here (I started this whole thing) it's clearly the best photo. The photo of a man I'll be seeing in less than two weeks, motherfuckers!

Mark Webber The Kung Fu Master!

Also, I just had SKY installed and registered my laptop with SKYGO. No one else will be using SKYGO so I'll also be able to give away my login details for someone to register their device, as long as their trustworthy :)

Can you stop being awesome please? You are putting the rest of us to shame.

I know FV was willing to pay someone for Sky Go earlier....

A few pages ago I said I'd pay someone £10/pm for Sky Go login info. I'm still willing to do that if you're game? You can trust your new GAF CHAMP&#8482;

I mean, if you want to give it to someone for free then even better, but I'm willing to pay for it :D Sky subs are pricey so it only seems fair!
 
This is the greatest thing ever, where is it from?

I can give the login details for free, I don't really need the money. I'm not rich by any means, I would just feel guilty taking money.

I know you're really desperate for the Sky Go info, so I guess I can give them to you. Its not the sports package, its the HD package but you get the F1 HD channel so that should be fine.

You mean there are sports other than F1? ;)

If you could that'd be really awesome, but I would like to chuck a few coins your way every month or I'd feel guilty!

And Dilly, I pay you for other services.

What are the rules about sharing out Sky Go details? Can sky block it?

Two devices and you can only change a device once per month to prevent abuse. It's pretty much accepted that some people will get the code etc, it doesn't have to be in the same house, county or even country! My brother and his mates have done it for years.

Ok fine if you really want to pay me I guess I could take lets say £5 a month. I'll give you my paypal address and Sky Go login details through a PM :)

Skys opinion on the running order (not good reading for Ferrari Fans)

Martin's word from trackside was that the F2012 was proving a handful on exit, and the impression from Sunday's timesheets is that it is also a tyre-eater: the drop-off on Fernando's lap-times was marked and he was only able to run a single, solitary lap on the supersofts before returning to the pits.

For those who just like list without giving Sky any hits

1. Red Bull
2. McLaren
3. Lotus
4. Mercedes
5. Ferrari
6. Torro Rosso
7. Force India
8. Sauber
9. Williams
10. Caterham
11. Marussia
12. HRT

I think Lotus will probably beat Ferrari in the first half of the season, but I don't think that will last throughout the year.

And I think Williams has a decent shot of beating Sauber (maybe that's just wishful thinking).
