UK v Australia

[Ian McC]

After maulings in rugby and cricket is this our chance to get some revenge?

Coulthard v Webber!

Place your bets people

Webber, though I'm not quite 100% on that one.

Webber,
DC will fight hard but MArk will be No.1 at Years end. mokin:
But if wet races come into play DC has got way better webbed feet (no pun Intended).

umm no no.. DC has never been able to handle an oversteering car, which obviously massively compromises DC's car setup in the wet and usually as a result he's slower. Webbo is actually a very accomplished wet weather driver, he just had a brian fart in last years wet weather race thats all.

I think Webber will win the battle, but it'll be reasonably close

I am not so sure about Webber being a very accomplished wet weather driver. But I'd still back him over Couthard.

ha lets hope its like the cricket


dont forget the soccer and of course rugby league (where you got beaten by australia AND new zealand)

[Caroline]

Too close to call. But maybe just DC?

I don't have much doubt that Webber is faster and especially in qualifyings.

But in terms of points IMO the key factor will be reliability. DC has shown that he is able to do well even in unreliable cars, whilst Mark is more like a "car breaker". Coulthard managed to outscore his top-class team-mates in seasons, when McLaren was very unreliable (97, 01, 02, first half of 04) as DC finished clearly more races. So - if the car is reliable, then Webber should score more points, if it's unreliable, then DC might have a good chance of scoring more points.

Typical English. Only need our help when they can't do it themselves. :
