Personally I would like to see Kimi instead of Rubens. I love Rubens but Kimi..

S. L. · Sep 22, 2011

now that maldonardo is beating him he has to see the signs, plus he has indicated that he wouldn't mind a non driver role in a team

But he needs another season. I mean, come on. 20 formula 1 seasons. At least one record he can hold.

Why wouldnt Kimi go to Renault? Makes no sense to go to Williams

Williams have been quiet about the whole thing and Barrichello says he is trying not to think about it too much. Seems possible.

They should kick Rubens out ASAP he is even more worthless than Maldonado.

Leunam · Sep 22, 2011

Maldonado isn't going anywhere with all that PDVSA money he's bringing in so yeah, Rubens would be the one to go.

This weekends conditions for Vettel clinching the championship:

If it's a Vettel/Hamilton 1-2, then it's pretty much done. Even if Alonso finishes third, he ends up needing a Vettel non-points finish in just every remaining race and he has to sweep the final 5 races.

Basically, one more win for Seb will win him the world title unless he has a spectacular flameout at the end of the year here.

SunhiLegend · Sep 22, 2011

Yes, not long left now for the F1 weekend. Also, I hope Kimi comes back, I don't care if his in a team like Williams as long as his back in Formula 1. Potentially 6 world champions on the grid.

That would be pretty amazing to see! Williams needs a shake up and if Kimi is willing to cut his insane Alonso rivaling salary it just might work out.

Once again I'll be hosting the FP 1/2/3, Pre-Quali/Quali, Pre-Race/Race and Forum. So send me a PM if you want access!

Sidenote, I still have to upload more pictures but I don't like my current directory dump style so I'm going to have a preview system setup.

Theres no room for him there. Petrov is bringing in money so he's guaranteed a seat like Maldonado, Senna is supposedly doing the same thing next season, and theres still the GP2 guy as a reserved driver.

Besides, like someone said, his comeback in a Williams car will probably be disappointing like Schumacher in Mercedes. Though I suppose he can provide some mid-field entertainment :lol

Excited for the race this weekend, I've always loved the night round at Singers.

Jesus, just how many pay drivers are there in F1? From who you mentioned (and memory) there's:
Petrov
Maldonado
Senna
Karthikeyan (I think?)

Fuck that. Drives should be going to the skilled, not the rich/sponsored.

Williams wouldn't be on the grid anymore without pay drivers.

Holy crap what a crash! Hope the guy on the ground was ok. Good thing they aren't strapped to those beasts.

I did a dry fit of the car tonight:

Yep, that's the fire extinguisher under the wheel.

More F1 2011 time for me.

SunhiLegend · Sep 23, 2011

Practice 1 postponed for maybe 30 minutes due to kerbs not correctly in place. In The Porshe support race the kerbs were being lifted when the cars ran over them. Lose kerbs.

Psychotext · Sep 23, 2011

God, I hate to drive on this track in F1. It was always such a clusterfuck for me, Jesus.

Also, what was that message about the white line?

I kinda agree. I was never a Williams fan and always hated how Frank saw this strictly as business, but they're still a tradition team.

Flowviz aka aeropaint - they use this to check airflow around front/rear wing and diffusor.

Common practice with new parts.
