Without a Ferrari win I am never going to make the top ten.
BUT....if Ferrari let Kimi go at least half of the field is going to be seriously hurt!
We fully understand the reason why the budget cap was introduced and we fully support cost reduction but it’s getting ridiculous at the moment. We request permission to buy the second chassis and engine. Nico is feeling really uncomfortable sitting on Maldonado’s laps and it’s really tight in the cockpit.Quote:

We also tested a car that would allow to score points for our third driver but it was deemed illegal by the governing body.

Shocking race for me......
Henners still stop gives me hope. If I can have a great bonus round in Spa. I could jump him. :)and thus be somewhere near the top.
You will have to score 106pts at Spa to beat Henners. It's quite a big ask as it's hard to score more than 100pts even with a bonus round, but it's do-able. Looks like it's between you two for the title. Congrats to both of you.Quote:

Underdog Jens GP Racing is happy that Malaysian Grand Prix was a one-off and Mercedes keeps winning consistently, thus justifying the move to an all-Mercedes line-up, which has moved us further up the standings.
Underdog Jens GP Racing is also satisfied that Raikkonen has had a few cr@ppy weekends, weakening our direct rivals, who have chosen him as a driver. However, we have to concede that as Ferrari is a very good car, Raikkonen is still likely to finish in top 5 most of the time, and thus it probably won't help us much in the future.
“※ Vivaldi Mercedes-Ferrari on the brink of bankruptcy”
Our inside source claims that ※ Vivaldi Mercedes-Ferrari might not see next GP. Maldonado’s crashes are causing a huge strain on team's budget. The team boss was unavailable for comment.

Ferrari Wins the Hungarian Grand Prix:

“※ Vivaldi Mercedes-Ferrari makes F1 easier for casual fans”
This year FIA introduced controversial ruling preventing drivers from changing their helmet designs. It has proved unpopular with very small group of so called ‘hardcore fans’ but others welcomed this change. “We had created separate budget for painting Vettel’s helmets” says Ferrari team boss. “Now we can spend this money on getting estimated extra 60bhp with our engine”. ※ Vivaldi Mercedes-Ferrari went even further with introducing small changes to the shape of the helmet. “The idea is very simple” says technical director. “It’s very difficult for casual fan to tell on which track they are. Even I, a professional working in F1 for over 20 years, sometimes get confused on which track are we actually racing. That’s why we introduce different helmet designs – after just looking on the helmet you can immediately tell whether it’s a fast or slow track.” There were some protests from other teams but he reassures us that this designs serves no aerodynamical purposes. “The horizontal shape is necessary to house 2 cameras on the edges. It was never attempted before but now we can stream live onboards in glorious 3D so much desired by our casual fans (currently available only on Jupiter Station 3, not available on Earth). This design was approved by FIA and will be in use during upcoming races.”

Tazzy finally gets his break with the McLaren cars in the points!
I scored so low that I may as well have not had a team in the race! :laugh:
Finally a win, thanks Vettel, thanks Ferrari, thanks Verstappen... :D
Still 14th overall :(
Actually the FAM are on the podium on the strength of Danny K's P2. However it is nice surprise to see my boyz at McLaren getting some decent points :)Quote:

As of 1st August 2015 the FTA (FGP Teams Association) is officially disbanding.
Good. :D

Another disappointing race by Nico Hulkenburger.
Another disappointing race by Nico Hamburger.
5th Place all you Ferrari doubters!!!
My team just finished checking the downloaded data. Nico just can't drive an F1 car. This incompetent idiot was smashing random buttons before the race and destroyed a brand new engine costing us valuable points (again).
Can't wait to Singapore - where capital punishment is legal.
Bah I chose the wrong year to doubt Ferrari :mad:Quote:

Ah well another midfield result, nice to dream of the title while it lasted. I'm not sure I'll hold on to a top 10 spot at this rate...
Congrats to Henners by the way, looks like he's got it in the bag now, after Steve failed to overhaul him. All top teams have used their bonus GP now.
Team boss rjbetty has simply been too busy to issue regular statements right now, but watch this space.
Twix's Aki Racing team is continuing its rise through FGP up to second in the world championship.
However the Championship is over from our point of view. Well done to Henners.
Still looking to hold second.
Since McLaren decided to go graphite gray instead of silver I steered my son wrong. Next season when he asks for silver he'll get Mercedes and a better run. For now I am happy not letting him know how bad he is doing. :)Quote:

Underdog Jens GP Racing is glad to be sitting inside top 6, despite Mercedes' atrocious Hungarian Grand Prix, which cost us quite a number of points. By the looks of it there is a good chance of ending up in the top 8 once the season is over.
