F1 fans?

Ah I see. Thought you were referring to williams renault, rather than williams or renault. When of course Button did move to benneton-renault in 2001

 

[maggi200]

Yep I have all of his from williams through to honda. First one given to me by bmw back in 2000 when I was a midget/kid. I got to meet him twice too I do intend to find the rest but they're not exactly cheap :lol:

 

[DrDrew]

Am hoping it's going to be a good race this weekend in Abu Dhabi. Think there's 5 drivers who can potentially be fighting at the top.

Hope you're enjoying yourself there Rob!

Well, after the second corner there were only 4

just in-case you hadn't seen

and I thought a few of you might find this interesting...

(Though it's a pity whoever made that couldn't spell Ferrari)

 

[DrDrew]

Well, the first of this years cars has been launched and what can we say.. Well, it's definitely been hit HARD with the ugly stick. It looks horrendous!

Might as well look like this...

 

[Ruddiezero]

Haha that's a great look a like, I think Most of em will look similar to this but hopefully the designers will find away around the regulations to stop it being so ugly

 

[DrDrew]

I'm guessing anyone who reads this thread has already watched the Malaysian GP. Bits of this episode of MiniDrivers were quite funny...

Just a friendly reminder to any F1 fans that as this weekend is monaco, fp1&fp2 are on Thursday, with the traditional friday off

 

[dw118]

was a good race, have to say alonso has been the most consistent driver this season and it shows him leading the championship.

 

[DrDrew]

Anyone going to Silverstone this weekend? I'm going to be there for the full three days, which should be great outside of the weather forecast.

 

[jra3d]

I shall be attempting to get to my work Friday in Towcester, I dont fancy my chances!! An i may be getting a pass for the weekend im not sure yet!

 

[singlespeed]

Not a good result for the Brits today, but that looked like a good race.

Drew. How was the mud. Or, were you lucky enough to have escaped that

 

[DrDrew]

It was a pretty entertaining race. I was camping - so in mud central. Luckily got parked on a hard area of the camp site car park, so got in/out of there easy enough. (They had local rugby teams around on hand to help push people out on Sunday)

The worst bit for us was getting in on Friday morning. We were 4 miles from the circuit at 9am, didn't get parked until 2! Though that was better than the people who got there a few minutes after us and got turned away, so camped on the roundabout. Pics may follow soon...

 

[dw118]

First year I haven't been for the last 4 years and has been sunny when I've been in the past, money wouldent stretch to silver stone this year, got the 133 instead. Lad I didn't go with the weather, was a good race to watch. Alonso nearly had it there too

In my breaks At work today I've looked over the fields and there still towing people out. Saw the lot camped on the roundabouts and couldn't stop laughing they just waved at everyone queing to get in lol.

Spa 2012. Shaping up to be one of the most interesting races for a while

 

[Ollie133cup]

Wooooo Well done Button!

Fantastic race and what a start! bloody french eh..

 

[DrDrew]

Was a pretty crazy start, but yeah a good race throughout too.

Grosjean has been given a one race ban now for this

 

[class31]

I was amazed how Kobiyashi's car managed to keep going after that, albeit with some damage.
