2011 Formula 1 Hungarian Grand Prix

I don't think it warranted a penalty. If he had just left it parked like people are saying, he's on the racing line. He has to put his foot down to get of it and spin it around to get back on the job. It's not like he was on a blind bend at a 160mph corner. It was after a slow chicane. Di Resta even said afterwards that he had saw Hamilton had a moment before he'd even turned into it. So he was well aware of what was coming. It was just unfortunate for Hamilton he couldn't go a meter or two further away from the racing line.

The rest of the drivers would have probably done exactly the same. Especially if they were winning at the time.

I don't think Hamilton was going to win the race either. Wrong tire choice twice was Mclarens downfall that day. And a drive-through to finish it of. But he came back through as high as he could, so props to that.

Still shit happens, and I enjoyed the race. Very entertaining for Hungary.

if he hadn't spun, and button wasn't on his tail, i don't think he would've pitted. i think that was an "in the moment"-panic-decision influenced by the huge pressure imposed on him by button.
but then he still would've been on the super softs, and that would've been fun towards the end of the race...

Act like a 5yr old boy by trolling/spamming the forum with Cellos? Nothing but your usual facebook-esque practice.
 
only kids play in the dirt ;) :p

i kinda lost interest in rally. i just don't care for big jumps or massive slides, and don't feel much for racing the clock...
bumperaction is what it's all about!!

How come? wasn't it 3 weeks?

Three weekends off. If you consider back to back grand prixs as "no week inbetween" then these two have three weeks inbetween.

And yes, Will Power did actually call Tagliani a wanker on (inter)national television.

Wow, and it's always at that turn. Surely they should have a look at it? Unless crashing is actually what people look out for in this racing series...
 
The Benny Hill music was very fitting for that video.

The problem with the Indy series is that they added circuit racing to what was an oval racing series, but instead of doing it on proper circuits where there are wide areas, run off areas, and proper infrastructure, they go and race in improvised street circuits in the middle of random cities. Second problem is drivers who are not used to circuit racing and just bump into each other like idiots, and third problem is rules are too lenient on people who bump others carelessly and ruin their races.

It's a joke right now, but I think it could improve. There are so many great circuits through North America. I specially would like to see them go to Circuit Gilles Villeneuve just to compare lap times with the F1 cars, so they all feel inadequate :p

I'm not going anywhere with it however, I wasn't given any reason to think otherwise.

LOL that music suited the video perfectly. On one hand, i did enjoy the bumper action, but also feel moronic that i'm entertained by that. Still a good race to watch for sure. :lol:

Toronto is always a great track and race, both the fans and the drivers usually love it (despite the penchant for it to become bumpercars). No, I'm not just saying that because I live here.
