Yeah, yeah, yeah... 🙂

placidsurfer9 said:Wait, which turn did Massa spin out on today? 😁

Honestly, at this rate, his engine is just gonna end up as a pile of scrap metal. ☕

Sam Fowler20 said:😂😂😂😂
Yeah, right. In your dreams.

What's so funny about that? 🤷

Seeing one thread after another like this totally reminds me of some guy from a certain forum... though I doubt it's him since he's probably under a restraining order keeping him at least ten feet away from any computer, right? lol... 🤔

Just don't go rushing back in with that clone 👋

Mission impossible 😁

lonebison19 said:I’m not totally sold on that being a sure thing... We really need to check with FIU first!

Everything is cool, but alright, I'll hold back on posting here until the mods show up. Honestly though, I doubt they'll get why I—and a few others—really want to keep this thread alive. 🙄

Everyone’s out here crying about that old spam thread being gone, but then nobody actually wants to step up and start some new chaos? 🤷

Guys, we’ve got ourselves a brand new—well, old—SPAM thread!!! 🙂

Roger Wright94 said:Is this hilarious, pathetic, or just straight-up tragic?
I mean, who even knows how many times people try to claim Michael Schumacher only snagged certain points, wins, or heaven forbid, championships, because guys like Barichel were basically ordered to step aside.

Pathetic, seriously, just pathetic!
As if the king of the track actually relied on Barichel to get anything done. Give me a break!

Just take a quick look at MSC's stats and tell me—honestly—how many "handouts" did he supposedly receive according to you?

The reality is, everyone knew who the number one driver was, and that lead driver always gets the strategy designed to grab a better spot over the number two guy. It doesn't have to be a blatant pass on the track or in the pits for them to be considered the team leader.
Every single title at Ferrari was won that way.
It's sad, really.🤣

Henry Sanchez64 said:What do you mean Robert Kubica? When has he actually won a race? When? Where? Against who?
So yeah, quit talking nonsense, both you and this other guy.👍

Just ten days ago, I stumbled upon some "expert" response to a post about how Robert Kubica might actually pull off a win.
😂😂😂

David Smith4 said:Robert Kubica took the win. I don't buy every single excuse they throw out there, but it’s pretty obvious that be BMW Sauber wanted him on top. If Nick Heidfeld wins, nothing really changes for the championship hunt. But with Robert winning, he jumps to first in the standings and honestly has a much better shot at more podiums than Nick does. Heidfeld was basically the sacrificial lamb. I feel bad because I'm a huge fan of BMW in general, but they had to pull the trigger for the good of the whole squad. So, I'm with Edward Howard2 on this one. Heidfeld had to play backup to secure Robert's lead, and that's exactly what happened. There's just a way higher chance that Robert lands another podium and grabs those points next race compared to Nick.

It was a smart, if not exactly fair move by the Sauber team. But hey, that's just how Formula 1 works. There's only room for one winner at the top.

Well, there you have it. 👏
I seriously don't get why some people aren't seeing this...

Why on earth would you feel bad about something being unfair?😕
Do you really think Ferrari felt bad for Irvine, Barrichello, or Massa all those years? Or do you think McLaren fans felt bad when they grabbed the title last year through spying?🙄
Nobody feels sorry for anyone as long as it gets them results and championship trophies.

It's basically just saying Kimi had already crossed the line by the time that guy lost his mind, and there was absolutely no way he could have squeezed past that massive semi-truck on the left side. 🤣

I honestly don't get why everyone is obsessing over Kimi taking that side position next to Kubica instead of being right behind him. From what I can tell, you’re allowed to use the full width of the pit lane as long as you stay within those white lines. There was more than enough room on Raikkonen’s left to fit another car in there. If Hamilton had actually tried to dive in there—and let's be real, I bet he wouldn't have missed the chance if he saw an opening—we would've seen a wild rematch of that Kubica-Kimi-Hamilton pit lane shuffle from the exact same spots 🙏

Bradley Nelson2 said:Fine, just hit me up whenever you actually find some proof. ☕
Until then, you're basically just wandering around in a fog because you haven't seen a legend like Schumacher on the track in ages. Go try selling that nonsense to someone who actually cares. 😉
Basically, everyone needs to use their heads here. You've completely lost your target audience. 🙂

I've laid out plenty of evidence, yet you haven't given me a single thing.

I gotta wonder why that is. 🤔

Maybe it's because you just don't get it.😂

Bradley Nelson2 said:You’re basically just talking trash without any actual points. Then, when I lay out what they actually said, you pull the "well, you can't expect them to leak their strategy" card. 😕
Look, bottom line? My take comes straight from watching the race and listening to the people involved—stuff you probably haven't even bothered to read yet. Your arguments seem to be coming entirely from your own imagination. Let the readers decide who's right here.

I read plenty of those quotes, including the ones you're talking about, but at the end of the day, most of it is just smoke and mirrors meant for guys like you—people who build an entire opinion based on nothing but someone else's press release. 🤣

I'll leave you with just one thing:

A picture is worth a thousand words.

Bradley Nelson2 said:Man, you’re just talking nonsense... seriously... let’s take this step by step.

1. Both drivers actually answered the question about the overtake during the press conference. BMW basically said Nico Rosberg was braking as late as possible given his weight, but obviously, they weren't going to have him crash into his own teammate.
2. Nico Rosberg was driving his own race. Obviously, you don't just hand over positions like that—that’s how you lose races, not win them. Use some common sense here. If Alonso hadn't passed Nico Rosberg, he would've ended up right ahead of him anyway if he had just maintained the pace of the car.
3. Yeah, back then, once they knew, Alonso realized the two-stop strategy didn't really matter anymore, but Nico Rosberg still didn't let him through because he's a racer. He even said he wasn't losing any time. Seriously, go read the post-race interviews instead of making stuff up.
4. What does that even have to do with anything? Precedent or not, I've already explained my side. What do you want from me? To say something "smart" just to score points, even if it makes no sense?
5. I mean, duh. Why would they advise him on how much to slow down just to hit 5th? What do you expect? This is F1, maybe you don't get it, but these guys drive to win. Period. And the guy had a shot at winning, and he took it. Because he was faster. Not just in the race, but in every practice session and qualifying too. He was simply faster.
6. Oh, come on, stop lying. Pure bullshit.
7. Nico Rosberg said everything himself during the press conference, totally honest, and honestly, props to him for that. All this unargued rambling of yours boils down to almost nothing.

What a disaster, just a bunch of losers talking trash just to hear themselves speak. Some people are unbelievable. 🤮

Your whole "argument" just relies on one interview.🤣
What kind of interviews are we even talking about???😂 They aren't gonna spill all their team strategy on live TV!😂
Honestly, if Nico Rosberg told you he was a pink piece of garbage, you’d probably believe him.🤣

You didn't explain why they told him to let Alonso past if he wasn't losing time. It was chaotic in the pits; you couldn't see him clearly on CBS, but the commentators mentioned it, and you could see it perfectly fine online. The fact that you missed it makes me think you didn't even watch the race—you just read an interview and now you're just talking shit here.

And if these are your...
"6. Oh, come on, stop lying. Pure bullshit"
or these...
"What a disaster, just a bunch of losers talking trash just to hear themselves speak. Some people are unbelievable."
...are your only counterarguments, please, just say it so I can stop wasting my time arguing with you. 🤣
