Why what? o__o



Not so bad then :)

Time to make a sandwich!

I thought you are going to miss the race (not preshow) by like 20 minutes because of something...

You only missed like 10minutes of preshow. :p

woow what a statistic, mclaren are 10th behind red bull when it comes to pit stops.

red bull's italy stop for vettel was crazy fast, i think it was 2,7 or something.

Button: "Hopefully Mark makes one of his good starts and I'll be P2 by the first corner" :lol

yeah, webber overheard him and said he had a thick skin...

September 25, 2011

MARK WEBBER launched into an X-rated rant at the Singapore Grand Prix.


....

asked how he was coping with being beaten by Red Bull team-mate Sebastian Vettel.

Webber, 35, snarled: “Probably I’ll hang myself”, before muttering: “Fucking wanker.”

any video of this? lol

I think that's the first time Hamilton has spoken to the media on the grid in almost two years.

Yeah i was surprised he walked to martin to be honest, but he had a reason for it.

Lol sky haha

Are they any stats on his starts for this season? I'm sure he's moved up at least one position almost every race.


Shouldent be that hard if your almost always on the 3rd row. I think Shumi is the best starter this year if im not mistaken.

Man button is amazing: Yeah martin its going to be hard up there in your air conditioned box.


love the guy

I knew Tanya would be there! Tanya and Martin definitely have a thing.
That was so weird, first Interview with Vettel in English I've seen, he sounds like a completely different guy. Guess that explains why some people actually like him.

Are you kidding me? Is this the first time you've seen him interviewed in english?

Both him and button looked so calm and relax, thats why i love them.

Fight between alonso and hamilton should be fun to watch, unless alonso gets him by the first corner, which is doubtful.
 

Stop It

Perfectly able to grasp the inherent value of the fishing game.

Indeed.

Vettel may well run away with this one, but the fights behind him should be good.

I expect the Ferraris, especially Alonso to be strong later one. Will Hamilton hold his tyres? Will Button be able to capitalise on a track that kills tyre performance? This should be an interesting tactical race, even if overtaking will be at a premium.

I dont know if im the only one who noticed this, but webber and button almost always have the same strategy.

In that they focus on the last part of the race to make things happen. So i think in the longrun button may be 2nd if nothing to dramatic happens. Hamilton alonso should be fun to watch, hamilton will have to handle his tires better than ever.

Behind them should be even more interesting fight between rosberg massa and shumi.

and yeah vettel will be the one capitalizing on all of this happening behind him and extend that lead.

Please explain.
In German, he usually gives very short answers and sounds a bit arrogant like he isn't really interested. Reminds me of the old Schumi. In English, he sounded... likeable. I don't know, it was odd.
 
Aw yeah, watching live for once! Hmmm, I didn't see any sort of large neon arrow on Webber's car indicating which direction he should head at the start. Expect a lot of confusion as he pulls a U turn at the start.

lol wat?

Also he's not that much different in English. Maybe comes off a little more quirkie when he inserts some English phrases or translates German phrases 1:1.

I think because there is a difference between the two interviewers, germans are almost always just straight forward, while in english you can just take your time and be relax i guess.
Germans are a bit uptight.
