What about McLaren are you talking about anyway? For once, nothing on f1.com about any irregularities...

It's about the whole lying in Melbourne thing, they're only just getting around to deciding what to do to McLaren about it

Ah right, was worried there was something new.

At least this one will likely not hurt Hamilton directly, but more so the team.

Hasn't even affected the team really, they got a suspended 3 race ban so they just need to be careful for the next year

Goodies

Wasn't expecting that.....

Finns can only get Better

Raikkonen AND Kovalainen out in Q1

Last race's pole, Trulli ONLY just got in in 15th.

Are McLaren going to tell porkies again, Kovalainen moaning about a BMW slowing him down when he was no where near him

Super Button. That's what World Champions are made of!

Really? Has the F1 really been on ITV for 12 years?? :O

Since 1997, so it's 11 years it's been on ITV.



Was an OK race today, thought Massa's fuel dilemma at the end was a really bad error by Ferrari, Couldn't stop laughing when the pit crew told him to slow down and save the fuel, despite Vettel being on his back!

Monaco in a fortnight, love this track!

Indeed Ferrari are pulling every school boy error out the bag for this season, I'm loving it!


It's the kind of thing you'd expect from a new team, not from the oldest most successful team in F1....


Role on Monaco.

Ferrari love the pit stops, remember last year when Massa drove with the fuel hose still attached to the car in one race?

Barrichello threatening to leave Brawn IF he senses they are favouring Button over him, he has had enough of that since the Ferrari days when he had to play second fiddle to Michael Schumacher

And now everyone is going to feel sorry for Rubens, when in actual fact Button is just driving better.

Anyone who watched the race would of seen that Button and his team played the better tactic of changing to 2 stops to avoid traffic. As well as Button turning it on when needed!

Rubens didn't do well enough on his 2nd stint, the tyres not working for him -I don't see how that's Jenson's fault. If anything Rubens wants to talk to his team about tactics....


Is anyone else baffled at how reliable the Brawn's are?

Button did apologise to Rubens after the race and then was pretty funny when he asked Webber how he got up there.

Massa F-----, oops, sorry I mean Massa ruined

Mark, you're live on TV, no need for that language

Barrichello has been 2nd best in any team, simply because he will NOT deliver the goods when he really needs to.

OR, not being better than the teammate.

To be honest, Barrichello is better than most give him credit for. Yes, he's been second best in all teams (expect his current one), but keep in mind he's been teammates with some pretty amazing drivers.

And right up till now, he's been the best 2nd driver on the entire grid. Really disappointed by his comments about never listening to team orders anymore though - despite FIA and their stupid rules, the #1 goal for any team is to get the Driver Champion, regardless of which of their two drivers this is. That's where team orders come from in the first place. Trying to make this an individual sport is plain stupid and violates everything F1 has been about for several decades.

If you've just jinxed them am goin to hunt you down with a wet comedy fish

Indeed Jan. I think we should also remember Rubens is a very emotional character and has been known to say things off the cuff. One of the many reasons we love him!

I do honestly believe that Jenson is the better driver at the minute - his car is working much better for him. It can change of course.

Can anyone see any other car beating Brawn at Monaco? Red Bulls are always within a shout, however I feel they must be first place on the grid to do so. Are Ferrari coming back? Will kerrs have any kind of impact at Monaco though? Will the Mclarens be last there??

My head is ogin to explode....

And, I've just read that Ferrari will be leaving F1 if current plans for a £40 Million cap for new teams is bought in, them saying it will create a two tier championship, something which is not in the blood of F1......

F1 without Ferrari would be like Batman without The Joker....
(Check for double meaning if you wish)

LOL Emma.....

Mercedes have the field covered with Brawn and Force India with McLaren someone in the middle.

But what's going on with Kovalainen, anyone else reckon he isn't up to it, so many retirements, finshed well back last season as well.

And John, if Ferrari are up there in Monaco, expect a pit stop involving a mistake with the fuel hose

Too true!

Now renault is playing the same card too, so there's no way in hell the suggested rules with remain standing come next year. FIA has no choice in this matter.

As for Monte Carlo, it's hard to say. One thought is that the amazing high-speed aero dominance the Brawns currently have will play a far smaller role of that circuit, possibly allowing the Red Bulls or Toyotas to grab it. Ferrari has no chance imo. I certainly hope not.
