Senna is shit, marginally better than chandhok who is also shit. Heidfeld has nothing to worry about.

James Allen reckons that Senna is just a stop gap until they get Grosjean into the car for the rest of the year.

Poor Hungaroring getting hated on but it is one of my favorites in F1 2010 and it is a good track for seeing the speed that the cars change direction. Vettel's pole lap from last year is awesome. If Ferrari and McLaren can challenge Red Bull there, then they have really caught up but I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if the RB7 dominates.

You said the same thing about Valencia but its an absolute shite race to watch. Same for the ring as a spectator.

Yeah, It is painfully obvious that I immensely enjoy the "athleticism" of F1.

F1 Race Manager bonus question is up, with increased prize money.

The two drivers in group B other than Hill and Villeneuve are Thierry Boutsen and Riccardo Patrese, in case anyone is wondering. The rest are very easy to identify.

Thanks for pointing out who those guys were, made it much easier.

I don't recall watching many Hungaroring races, I do remember it being fun as hell in F1 2010.

Quick question to all of you: This might be obvious fanboyism, but does anyone else get the vibe from Webber that he's more "old school" than a lot of the other drivers? I don't know what it is, but it just seems like he wouldn't be out of place driving in an early-mid 90s McLaren or Williams beast, whereas a lot of the others are distinctly new-generation.

Webber, Button, Schumacher, Barrichello, maybe even Alonso to an extent.

Alonso definitely.

Edit: Perhaps it's also that Webber's had to go the hard yards through some pretty average teams (Minardi, Jaguar, Williams) to get to RBR, whereas the likes of Vettel and Hamilton have jumped almost straight away into top-tier.

New question up on Racemanager... who is the last driver in group B?
Click to expand...

Just look at a list of winners of the GP and it's not hard to work out.

They've not done it again though, have they? From what I can tell, A & C have the same number of wins between them...

Edit: silly me, the list I was looking at wasn't complete

I must be a moron, I have accounted for all the winners and I can't figure out who he is.

EDIT: Why is this weeks question worth 4.5m? Cause of the summer break?

When Vettel crashed into him last year in Istanbul...

Realistic demonstration of the crash, haha. Webber is funny post-race. I have never been a fan of his, but he is a great character and has earned his respect through his fight with Vettel.

He shows some ballsy driving from time to time, but lacks a bit of elegance in his overtaking/fighting.

I kinda hope he will stay another season with Red Bull. There are many interesting drivers we would like to see in a Red Bull, but only few would be able to deny a role as wingman.

Bahaha, I was watching his face, I didn't notice the actions he was doing. Love him.

Its funny how Webber think he is on the same level with Vettel.

If your teammate win five from the first 6 GPs and your average position is only 3,66, you are clearly the number 2.

We've already been through this, you're a few months too late.

Not at that point of the championship. Was pretty ambiguous at that the time of that conference.

No, I understand Red Bull. It's feel like 2009 again.

Buttons had won the first six of seven GPs but after the season Vettel was "only" 11 points behind Button.

Wasn't the old 10-8-6... scoring system used in 2009?

Vettel's has won so many races already and even when he hasn't he has still scored good points. The driver's championship is over.
