i watched it
not a lot of gp fans on here though :(

the only reason verstappen was on provisional pole was that he was on a dry track and basically the rest were on a wet track. when it's a dry track, the 80 or so hp difference between the minardi's and the top boys shows through.

all credit to verstappen though :)

You're mistaken, he did not claim the pole position... he just won the right to start last at the second qualification day by having the best time of the first qualilication day.

[-Archwolf-]

expensive!!!!!! ;)

They call it the pole of the qualification because he had the best time

bit of a broad statement there

the michelins are better in most conditions, however, the margin of superiority for the michelin drys over the bridgestone's is much less then the bridgestone wet/inter superiority over michelin

p.s. i'm a schumi fan too :)

[-Archwolf-]

for me it's still Verstappen I hope for Minardi they get more sponsers


did you heard about barrichello he is maybe going to Sauber I hope he stays with ferrari or at least go to a better team then Sauber, Like williams or McLaren

that was an cool action of Montoya

[Nimdock]

I don't think Barrichello will go to McLaren or Williams...

However Coulthard needs to get some results or he will be out of job.

I think your right but it would be better for him

I think Alonso will go to Williams, McLaren or maybe even Ferrari

[2nd gen noob]

raikkonen or alonso to ferrari within 2 years...

[bluedevil]

if they let me drive ill put montaya there:lol :lol:

[2nd gen noob]

different angle

[TheDave]

arent the cockpits (or whatever theyre called) built round the drivers so where it might be uncomfortable for you it fits the original driver like a glove

[bluedevil]

its the seats that are fitted

[-Archwolf-]

yes that is true but it's still really small and thight so it's still uncomfortable

[2nd gen noob]

the seats (and monocoques (to some extent)) are moulded to each individual driver, yeah

i would think that blood circulation would be a problem though, unless they have a suit like pilots...which i don't think they do

[-Archwolf-]

it's something like this

so what do you guys think the outcome will be :o

it's cramped to say the least...

[-Archwolf-]

1. Ralf Schumacher Bmw Williams
2. Micheal Schumacher Ferrari
3. Kimi Raikkonen McLaren
4. Juan Pablo Montoya Bmw Williams
5. Fernando Alonso Renault

[-Archwolf-]

It's good that they changed the rules and you can really see the effects now because last year this was the race that Schumacher won the championship.

[bluedevil]

i have the same in mind :)

p.s. schumi (michael) has the title this year

next year it'll be close though...

[-Archwolf-]

M. Schumacher has 58 points and Raikkonen 51 points so it will be close Raikkonen can still win

dont know about that one could be kimi
i think hes doing a hell of a job this year
and its coming out of my mouth:as i am a shumi fan

[-Archwolf-]

Raikkonen would allmost be first if he didn't blow up his engine in Europe

[2nd gen noob]

if raikkonen didn't have to stop to get his nappy changed all the time he'd be doing better :P

i just think schumi has an experienced head on his shoulders and this year is still ferrari's imo

[-Archwolf-]

yep that is true schumacher has the experience, Raikkonen is very young

[2nd gen noob]

Originally posted by Archwolf-@5 July 2003 - 15:15

if schumacher hadn't had his incident with montoya (which was totally fair) and raikkonen didn't blow up then schumi would be in the lead though

[bluedevil]

Originally posted by Archwolf-@5 July 2003 - 14:15

agree on that one

[-Archwolf-]

Villeneuve made a great friday qualification even though he had only 1 lap practice

[nostalgia]

Don't forget that Raikonen still races the 'old' Mclaren. Although it has a new aerodynamic package, it still is the 2002 car. Ferrari races the 2003. Therefore IMO Raikonen is having a fantastic season up till now.

[-Archwolf-]

yep that's true in the beginning of the season ferrari said that the 2003 car would be faster and better than any other car but if you compare the car with other cars you can see that the ferrari isn't that much better

[zacspeed]

I'll be painting a wall on Sunday, & watching it dry... Or perhaps there's some grass I can watch grow.... :P

Seriously though guys, It aint very exciting anymore is it?
bring back real wheel to wheel stuff (Montoya is the only real risk taker now), I believe they are too highly paid to put life & limb on the line :(

CART was the only interesting formula 'till they all shipped out to IRL.

Let's get the primadonnas out (Irvine's long gone, you're next DC!) & get some real racers into the sport.

I'm sorry if this offends anyone, just my opinion ;)

it's better than last season with the new rules I dunno if you watch everything or only the race but if you start watching from friday with the training and qualification and then the race is pretty exciting

[nostalgia]

Well, I think that this year's competition is close although I notice that the circuits aren't up to date anymore. I mean, it is almost impossible to overtake on any circuit without crashing into someone. So I hope the new circuits of Bahrein and China will have a lot of place to overtake.

[-Archwolf-]

it makes it cooler that the circuit is so thight the drivers really need to fight for their place now




Just a few hours left!!!!

[-Archwolf-]

Ralf Schumacher wonnnnnn!!!!!!!! yahoo

:o couthard said bollocking :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Wolverine]

Coultard's a knob, and he can't keep blaming his poor performances on the fact that he dislikes the 1 lap qualifying.

[-Archwolf-]

the last pitstop where the full tank was stuck wasn't coulthard fould the lollipopman said he could go so he did

[Nimdock]

DAMN!!!!!

Montoya came in second... :angry: :angry: :angry:

[-Archwolf-]

too bad

[nostalgia]

Well to be honest, this wasn't the most exciting race so far.

Well they say better 2nd than 3rd...

I wanted the win as a birthday gift... but oh well... (Too bad my next birthday will be a tuesday not a sunday)

July 20th it's celebrated the independence of Colombia so there will be another reason to celebrate :D :D :D
