Urm wow, after Hamilton's first 3 races in Formula 1 and he's leading the championship!!!! (Albeit with 2 other people )

There's a big difference. Football player work together for a team, in F1 the two drivers ALWAYS want to beat each other, and 99% of the time, F1 drivers don't give a hoot about talking about there team mate and how well they're doing.

Another example came after the race. They asked Fern about Lewis and what a good race he had and Alonso just said a very quiet and pissed off 'yes'. Then the cut back to Rider and Barry Scott, and they just laughed. How dare ITV undermine a double world champion just so they can lick Lewis' arse.

Mark Blundell = Barry Scott?

This season is beginning to remind me of 2000 - a very close battle between Ferrari and McLaren, and nobody else winning a race (except possibly in freak circumstances). Nobody outside those two teams has even got a podium yet!

The main differences being IMO neither team has a significantly better driver line-up (I'd say McLaren's is a bit better, but not as much as Ferrari was with Schumacher), and there's a clear challenger to the big two in BMW, unlike 2000 where a different team seemed to be the third-best every race!

Really didn't expect a BMW to beat a McLaren , and you can't even say that this time it was becuase of a mistake! Heidfeld must be one of the most under-rated drivers ever!

I've always rated Nick since 2001 and he still hasn't really got a decent drive. A dark horse for Monaco I think.

PS, Kubica is rubbish.

I think I might watch Spain first.

I ment when Monaco comes along after Spain. Cos you don't have to be in the best car at Monaco to win. That was my initial point.

WHAT A RACE! WHAT A WIN FOR HAMILTON!

Tom stop acting like James Allen please


Anyone watch the US GP? Sato sliding off as usual

Thanks Steve, Hello everybody.

Sato does not slide.

Well my sidekick avater banana must have been in the road

Shut it

Anyway. FIA are a farce. Sato did not pass under yellows.

I agree there. IT WAS BUTTON ALL ALONG AND HE SHOULD BE PUNISHED.

But SATO did spin and I will not shut it

Sato did not spin

He just lost control.

There is a difference y'know

Yawn, what a dull place the F1 threads are these days, everyone has gone.

Back to Batracer forum I go

If you've never watched Formula 1 before this is the race to watch!!! It has just started bucketing it down!!! Everyone is canoeing sideways, amazing to watch!

And just to prove how dramatic this race is, they've now stopped the race completely, until they've cleared all the car parks of F1 cars around the track.

42 laps in - COULTHARD THIRD!?!?!?!?!?

Wow!

Big disappointment for Raikkonen - he started the race on pole and is now well behind teammate Massa who is in the lead, and Alonso is second.

No sign of Lewis Hamilton anywhere near the front drivers...

Thee of little hope... God brings RAIN (very soon anyway)

It better come soon.
But come on, both Red Bull drivers in top four!!! Amazing!

Fernando Alonso wins
