2010 Santander British Grand Prix

[cycosis]

Red Bulls are up front again! Vettle jsut edged Webber for pole and Webber isn't looking happy about it. Should be a good race with the new track section.

Anyone have details as to why Mclaren ditched the blown diffuser?

It was melting their floor.

Anybody else watching today? Ferrari can't catch a break, what a BS penalty.

Wow, webber had soem strong words after the race. Good for him and the win considering he had to give the new wing to Vettel. He said he wouldnt have signed for next year had he known there would be favoritism. Guess him and Seb arnt that close....

[Mibz]

I just hope this RBR drama stays hot enough to boil over whenever it's convenient for McLaren

[That.Guy.S30]

damn, alonso cant get a break this year.

Fuck, did you ever make a jump up in the Pool this week with your crazy Koby/Sutil picks...

JDigital - 412
Inzane - 403
Mibz - 401
ryan - 396
a2vr6 - 393
Dannyo - 393
Chirs - 392

I have to admit, I laughed at that decision at the time. Karma I guess.

Still 2 wrongs don't make a right and I disagree with the penalty. So much for Ferrari International Assistance.

The only crazy pick I made was keeping Massa in there.

You and every one of us, haha... He's just not the same this year IMO... That accident has definitely affected him.

This is important because I am not tied for last place, I am 1 point ahead of last place (of the people still making picks). I feel like Lotus...

I found it amusing that F1toto didn't even bother replacing Senna with Yamamoto - nobody was going to pick him anyway.

Anybody else get nervous whenever someone tries to pass MS? I expected a shunt every time.

^^ I always seem to miss one point...
