Any chance for rain tomorrow?
I hope it rains tomorrow. Grosjean is my pick to win!
I'm hoping but regarding Grosjean winning, I'll say even with no car on the track on the first lap, he'd still spin a few times by himself ;)Quote:

I couldn't agree more. I bet Alonso would collect Hamilton and this place would finally go bonkers for a change.Quote:

I sarcastically second that. I remember the captivating 2002 season so well. :rolleyes:Quote:

Some suggestions on cyberspace that Red Bull have managed to blow the diffuser off-throttle.
(All of which could be complete tosh, of course...)

Hang in there. The scheduled start is for 2:00 Eastern Daylight Time according to Montrealgazette.com. Local TV listings for Fox show a time of 1:30 or 2:00 and the french RDS shows 1:30.Quote:

Last year 1/2 of the broadcast was from SpeedTV, the 2nd half from the BBC feed, so some strange things go on
Good luck
Can we not go overboard. For 2 seasons now we had DRS and Pirellis, and the way you are talking every season before that was as dull as dishwater.Quote:

I enjoyed 2002, but it wasn't the best I know that, but why does everyone jump in and say because I don't feel quite as easy with F1 in the last couple of seasons. (I do still enjoy it by the way) that I love F1 with one driver pummelling the rest?????
Since I have watched F1 1994,1995,1996,1997,1998,1999,2000,2001,2003,2005, 2006,2007,2008,2009,2010 have all had cracking battles and racing in my eyes, but not with DRS or Pirelli.
2011 and 2012 I have enjoyed as well, but on threads about the racing I give my honest opinion and unlike some don't rant at people I hope. And yet I still feel alot of people view me as an idiot because I dare to say I preferred it, before. (In fact mostly what I say is I love F1 both ways, however just feel slightly like F1 may be edging in the wrong direction for me as a fan).
I enjoyed 1992,1993,2002,2004 but these titles were a bit one sided. People seem to forget very quickly.
Forgive me.... Rant over
If you have local channels its gonna be on fox, its channel 37 here in Colorado.Quote:

No prizes for guessing what's wrong with it...
By the way, a quick question - is it normal for the Canadian GP to start an hour after qualifying? I'm wondering whether it might have been done as to avoid being at the same time as the European Football Championship, but I'm totally clueless about this.
Classic! :rotflmao: :D :DQuote:

My DVR went bonker$. You do realize that this $ea$on is rigged wor$t than any before it. I wi$h I could explain exactly why! :rolleyes:Quote:

You're right - I just checked F1's official website and the race does indeed start at 1:00pm CDT, so it looks like it will be live after all.Quote:

I'm not normally a Jacques basher, but he's been really critical of Alonso's teammates while he was at Renault this weekend, saying that he's not had a good benchmark teammate etc. So, those people would be Trulli, Fisichella, Piquet, Grosjean (who he's been most critical of) and, ehm, Villeneuve???
Easy victory for bieber, red bull is very obviously the fastest car again. Hopefully Alonso and Hamilton can hold off the much faster RB of webbo
Massa :s
Awesome racing, with Nico being told to save fuel and tyres. Great, that is what F1 should be about. Saving tyres and fuel. Yep.
Well, the tyre part I don't have a problem with, it is like breaking in F1, if you don't know how to brake, you lose your brakes in 5 laps, with tires it is the same, if you don't know what you're doing, you lose your tires way before everyone else, the gas conservation, well, that is on his team, supposedly they can figure out exactly how much fuel your car will need, if they don't do it right, they pass the buck to theor driver and ask him to conserve fuel.Quote:
