2009 Japanese Formula 1 Grand Prix

Well, that's the most accident-prone place. Or maybe early on near the Ses
 
Random thought, but what ever happened to Tony Jardine? He taught my dad art at school and was a pretty likeable F1 pundit.
 
How did Button drop so far behind Barrichello? they were 2 places apart and recieved the same penalty....

They applied the penalties by the order in which the offense was committed so Rubens sped through the flags first and received his penalty first placing him behind Button. Sutil then took his penalty promoting Button and Rubens then Button took his after Alonso and was effectively screwed. There may have been others I'm not including cause it seriously is fucked up.

Yes, Vettel is pulling away from hamilton at the rate of knots.

Vettel is makes hamilton look stupid by taking a whole second out of him in Sector 1.
 
Why is Webber pitting so much?
 
Webber's race is screwed, he's got a puncture and the padding (head rest) came loose.

He is about 2 laps down, pitted twice already
 
thanks for the answer
 
Vettel's team radioed him in, "what you are doing is fine, don't push harder."

Seems like Vettel has more room to spare, he is just nursing his car in the first stint to keep the strategy/tactics in check. The team doesn't want him to burn up too much fuel..


Edit : Jenson is in trouble, getting some thick under-steering problem when the car gets in the slipstream.

Sutil & Kovalainen!!
 
FUCK YOU KOVI
 
What a noob Kovy has been this weekend.
 
Yup, Kovalainen didn't need to fight that hard. He is fuelled much longer than Sutil.

Sutil made that move stick, he was clearly ahead of Kovalainen. A racing incident, but can be avoided. Kovalainen pushed way too hard when he shouldn't.
 
They've been dropping the ball through the season and losing points for silly reasons, I think they wanted to play it safe. Won't change a thing, Vettel has it already.
 
He's going to walk the race, hope Rubens makes it through the field.
 
Both Kimi & Button are flying!!!


Edit : Kimi just set the fastest lap of the race!

Edit : Argh, fuck off.

Kimi is on the soft tyres in P8 and can't push cos of the traffic : (

Well BMW screwed up that then.
 
yep Kimi get's past Heidfeld, and Kubica is pissed
 
Well BMW screwed up that then.

Yes they did.

Now they cant catch up to Button, and Kimi is miles ahead. Kubica is stuck behind Heidfeld with the faster car.

Edit : WOAH! Kovalainen fighting Fisichella right outside the pits!
