Brazil vs. USA - Nov 7, 2010

Joshua Newman2 said:Anyway, let's see what the remaining four who actually still have a shot think about winning the championship (sadly, Button is out of the running).

My ranking:
1. Webber
2. Hamilton
2. Alonso
4. Vettel

😁

1. Alonso
2. Vettel
3. Webber
4. Hamilton

It’s kind of ironic, considering Vettel was one of my favorites before I even found this forum.

I honestly don't get why everyone is picking on Vettel, or what he's supposedly done wrong—especially when you compare him to Webber. 🤷 I mean, the kid acts way more mature and professional than most. 🙏

Given their ages and experience levels, you'd think it would be the other way around...

It's almost unbelievable how level-headed and down-to-earth he stays, despite everything he's been through. Hats off to the guy (who's actually pretty likable). 👍 😍

And someone made a good point earlier—if Webber's car had been falling apart as much as Seb's has this season, he probably would've been making just as much noise and drama if it meant helping some Alonso hide. 😬

1. Webber (though if he actually wins one, I guess he shouldn't just be handed it on a silver platter—if he is, he should probably just retire immediately)
2. Vettel
3. Hamilton
4. Button
999. Alonso

😲😲😲 I’m stunned 😁 and honestly, I don't believe you 🤣

I actually think the worst thing that could happen to Vettel is winning the title this season. It might actually turn him into an idiot; it feels way too early for that, he still has things to learn.

I suspect your faith in Seb still having a shot at the title has wavered... so now you're trying to comfort yourself with these kinds of rationalizations 😬

And we both know who you're actually rooting for 😁😁

cosmicridge5, you watching practice?

Not sure what's up, but the BBC isn't loading for me.😕

What, are they on strike or something?🤣

Jason Campbell70 said:Just anyone but Hamilton. 😍

I'm with you on that one. 😁

cosmicridge5 said:I'm stunned 😁 and I just don't believe you 🤣

I think your faith in Seb still having a shot at the title just took a massive hit... so now you're trying to comfort yourself with these little rationalizations 😬

And we both know who you're actually 'emotionally behind' 😁😁

Look, Webber is basically an old man compared to me
😬 I guess I have a soft spot for those older guys who finally get a real shot. Honestly, I'd love to see Webber take the title, but definitely not if Vettel has to miss out. If that happens, I'll hold both of them responsible, and I mean it

Actually, I'm starting to find Webber a bit annoying because of how much he's pushing this 😳
But hey, if he really is performing this well this season, credit where it's due
👎 And honestly? I think it might be too soon for Vettel. I'm worried he'll get an ego like Alonso or Hamilton, and an early title could totally mess with his head. That's the catch

👍

😉

here he goes 😁

Vettel takes first 👋
Hamilton lands second 👋
Massa edges out Alonso 😬

Webber finishes ninth 🤦

stormybadger8 Asks:
cosmicridge5, you watching the practice session?

I'm not really sure why, but the BBC isn't working for me.😕

Are they on strike or what?🤣

Alright, I just turned it on, and it seems to be working fine for me...

Well, thanks a lot, Hemoš. 🙄 😬

stormybadger8 said:Massa is ahead of Alonso😬

I mean, once Alonso basically ordered him to snag those last two wins 🤣 just to mess with everyone else's points tally... and the guy jumps right on it. 🙏 😁

A total hero, I guess. 🙏 😁

Kubica is the fastest 🙏

Maybe, but watching this is just a waste of time... Red Bull is probably going to pull their usual stunt and dominate qualifying again...

cosmicridge5 said:Kubica is faster 🙏

But honestly, why even bother watching? Red Bull is just going to show up to qualifying and cause their usual chaos...

I'm not so sure. Webber looks pretty rough when it rains.🤷

stormybadger8 said:I’m not so sure about this. Webber looks pretty rough out there in the rain.🤷

I’ll take that news from Brazil as a win. I was glued to the live timing, and honestly, Ferrari looked solid throughout the whole thing.
Even I’m actually feeling okay about these rainy qualifying sessions. It levels the playing field and takes some of that raw power away from Red Bull. This gives Hamilton and Kubica a legitimate shot.

Why act surprised? I've just been riding the wave of whoever was performing best this season

March–May: Alonso
May–August: Webber
Late August: Hamilton
September: Alonso
October: Vettel
November: Alonso

I'm only missing Button—but honestly, I spend enough time writing about how great he is already, so there's no need

😂 Man, what a ride!

Hey silvercobra68, still staying celibate by just watching the races?

No rain in sight 😢

I highly doubt ☕
Button will even make it to Q3.

Michael Lee4 said:I have my doubts about whether Button will even make it into Q3 ☕

Button always seems to find his rhythm when the whole weekend is a bit chaotic—so anything could happen, really. 😁

Michael Lee4 said:I'm not feeling great about Button making it into Q3☕

He's ahead of Hamilton, so if he doesn't make Q3, neither will Hamilton.😁

Grandpa 👍

Button 🤦

Kubica 👍
