Formula 1 - 2012

[terrabytetango]

I'm rooting for Alonso as well. That man took a dog turd and turned it into a pink diamond.

Qualifying about to start... Button was fastest in third practice, and he just tweeted that its raining for qualifying... Remember the Williams of Nico Hulkenberg on a drying track a couple of years back? This should be interesting.

[vishkid]

How was that first few laps? Few RBR fans had heart attacks?

[Simplelife]

Ok guys, Seb won his 3rd consecitve world champitionship... and Alonso ends up in the 2nd place... ... thats it for 2012 season...

[vishkid]

Amazing achievement by RBR - 3 times world championship winning cars! And Vettel is a true champion whatever said, he has resolve and a head for pure speed if not anything. So congrats are in order.

Too bad about Lewis ... good drive by Jenson.

Massa ... imagine if he showed this form from the 1st race!

You all know, I'm heartbroken, yet again - but Fernando remains the the ultimate and the most respected just for the way he handled those difficult Renaults and Ferraris (except maybe 2010) from the day I started watching F1.

[MasterDon]

Ah well we gave it a good fight.Forza Ferrari!...Congrats to Adrian Newey Vettel!.

Bye bye Michael,Still the best ever!

[miniace]

Obviously heartbroken. Aloso was there but team failed to give him a better machine to crush RBR and McLarens.

You cant ask anything more. A great season and a thrilling season finale.

Lol, Great ending, gonna miss these, and a pretty deep meaning when it comes to Lewis being asked whether he wants to continue.... :/

Undoubtedly a thrilling finish to the season, but even though I was gunning for Alonso to take the championship, I must concede that Vettel's performace today was pretty spectacular. Even watching him in the post race interview, I felt he's matured a lot as a driver, especially as he probably thought he'd lost the championship battle so many times this season, not least during the final race. At the end of the day R*D B*LL had the best Car-Driver combo, but Alonso on the other hand was able to take a car that normally would have been uncompetitive to new heights, and this alone makes him (imo at least) 2012's best driver.

The race left a bitter taste in my mouth. I mean the conditions were perfect. I thought Alonso was sandbagging like he did in the beginning of the season when he claimed the car was not up to par. As much as I am a team McLaren groupie, Alonso deserved to win this race and own Seb's pasty white posterior.

[GTAm]

I'm not as upset as 2010. This year was a tough ask but 2010 was snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Ferrari better bring a better car next year.

Best overtaking move of the race IMO - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJ-Dfbowv0c (Kimi vs Schumi)

[Simplelife]

Now, this is very interesting... sadly i miss this "overtake" during the race on Sunday, but will Ferrari have enough proof?

I will be surprised if anything changed. very unlikely I think.

I hope it doesn't as well. While everyone must play by the rules, it would be quite a damper if the results were to be altered now.

This is one of the funniest things to cross my path in a loooong time

Yep .. glad it was a 'no case'. Ferrari should not hv perused it that aggressively - they know what it makes them look like.

Brazil 2012 full race from onboard cameras.It's so nice to watch from a driver's point view with the glorious engine/gearbox noise and without Steve Slater's stupid commentary noise..I suspect this video will be taken down shortly though.But there are torrents available to download.I suggest Brazil 2008 & 2007,Montreal 2011,...also there are classic races from the 80s and 90s with Murray Walker and James Hunt commentary.

[Overdrive]

Good find master don! This option is available on sky f1 channel, you get to choose which driver you want to follow. With or without commentary. Have you guys seen it through the helmet cam? Makes you wanna throw up!

[Pericles]

Aww c'mon. This was one of the better commentaries. I nearly choked when Steve and Karun started discussing the cricket and Monty destroying India.

Thanks for the link - Mad gear shifts: The sheer speed at which those transmissions engage is just astounding...

Now, I know it says Concept, but ...

Whatcha think, Ferrari Fans?

[Watchman]

very cool! (that is if you're car is never going to be in a situation where it will need a front wing to be replaced in 10 seconds)
