2010 British GP - Silverstone (July 11)

Maria Nelson2🙏 I’ve got a little errand for you... you know exactly what I'm talking about.☕

Douglas Parker61 said:Since Alonso veered off onto the grass to avoid Kubica, he should have just rammed him, backed up, and kept hitting him until there was nothing left.🙄

Cut the crap... He should've just let him pass right then and be done with it. He would’ve caught up a lap later anyway, sitting on a mountain of points, and everything would've been fine.

Michael Lee4 said:Give me a break... they should have just let him pass right then and be done with it. He would've eventually caught up and overtaken him a lap later anyway, given how many points he had in the bag, and everything would have been fine.

I'm with you on that.

I gotta admit, Mark Webber totally won me over today with what he said over the team radio 🙏🙏

If Fernando Alonso doesn't clinch the title, I am honestly pulling for Mark Webber to take it all the way 🙏

He’s absolutely tearing apart that golden boy—you know, the team's little darling and supposed number one driver—and he truly deserves a shot at fighting for the championship until the final race 🙏

It’s gonna be an uphill battle for him going up against his own entire team, but man, I really want to see him pull it off... 🙏

you gotta be kidding me 🤣right now...

Hey, nothing wrong with dreaming big... 😬

Fernando Alonso in the headline, but which year are we talking about?
Why don't we just start dedicated Alonso/Sebastian Vettel fan clubs so people can post their theories there instead?

Can we please stop with the burner accounts? 🤣

I’ll be replying to someone and then realize I'm talking to a completely different person using a second nick. 🤣

Honestly, I don't get why people are too embarrassed to use their actual usernames. 🤣

Regarding Webber vs Vettel—yeah, sure, Vettel had a rough start and tried to squeeze his way back in, which didn't work. No argument there. But then Webber shoves him off the track? Look, that's racing, but you shouldn't be doing that to your own teammate. A team shouldn't allow that kind of chaos, no matter who the drivers are.

As for Webber, he's driving for himself and doing a killer job at it, so no complaints there. But for the sake of the team? He's terrible. Vettel is just as bad, and the whole situation is a mess. It's not really on Vettel or Webber, though—it's on Christian Horner and, obviously, whoever put him in charge in the first place.

It makes for great TV, and we're all loving the drama, but from a team management standpoint, it's an absolute disaster.

Look, man... the guy already has two titles under his belt...

How many does your favorite driver have?? 😁

cosmicridge5 said:Looking back at this race 🙏

Mark Webber really showed his true colors here 🙏 That’s how you push a teammate and sabotage your own team—bravo 🙏 🤮

Take another look at the start. I don't recall Webber starting on the left side; if anything, I remember Sebastian Vettel making that sharp move to the right. Honestly, I have no clue who was trying to screw over whom at the lights.

Almost two.

Patrick Taylor9 said:It's super pretty much two.

The keyword is actually bolded here... 😉

So, isn't Juan Pablo Montoya your absolute favorite guy?

Or who's your actual driver, Jenson Button or someone else? 😁

Look, the point is what's happening right now. LH is running this show just like MS did during his prime.

Patrick Taylor9 said:Look, we're talking about right now. Lewis is absolutely running this show, just like MS used to during his prime.

Honestly, back when Schumacher was at his peak, no teammate would ever be sitting just 12 points behind him like Jenson Button is trailing Lewis right now.😉

Plus, Lewis still has to go out there and earn a title where he doesn't need someone to practically pull over and let him pass on the final corner just to win. He needs a championship in a season where he didn't make like ten different driving mistakes, and one where he didn't only win because his only real competition was Massa—and let’s be real, nobody even considered him a serious threat for the title.

I think Fernando Alonso will grab his third title before Lewis gets a single "real" one.☕

Plus, Hamilton still needs to win a title where he doesn't have to rely on someone letting him past in the final corner just to clinch it. And let's not forget he's doing it in a season where he's botched about ten different moves. He basically won his last title only because his main rival was Massa—and we can't even call him a legitimate contender.

Honestly, I think Fernando Alonso will grab his third title before Hamilton earns a single real one.☕

Whatever. Whoever wins the championship this year is just going to be lucky that everyone else messed up more than they did.🤣 Between everyone else's stupidity and their own brain farts, if anyone actually deserves a title based on pure driving, it's Button and Robert Kubica. I can barely believe I'm saying that.🤣 But hey, truth hurts. Button is the only one who isn't making mistakes, except his team clearly plays favorites with his teammate. And Kubica is out there wrestling a total junker compared to the rest of the field.

Alonso, Hamilton, Mark Webber, and Sebastian Vettel don't deserve a title this season regardless.

Nico Rosberg is plenty good, but I really don't see him getting any team support or having a prayer at this point.

Lately, my allegiance has shifted toward Jenson Button and Mark Webber. I have to say, Webber is easily one of the most disliked figures for me because he’s repeatedly shown just how cutthroat and questionable his conduct can be on the track—though, thankfully, that wasn't the case today. In my opinion, there is perhaps nothing more disheartening in this sport than seeing a team turn on its own driver. It is painfully obvious that Webber does this, and it seems highly likely that Andy Gumbel is complicit in it as well. Once again, it's all about Webber and his team radio🙏🙏🙏

Chris Ortiz said:Lately, I’ve been rooting for Jenson Button and Mark Webber. Honestly, Webber is one of my least favorite drivers because he’s shown time and again how dirty he can be on the track—though he wasn't acting like that today. In my opinion, the absolute worst thing in this sport is when a team turns on its own driver. That’s clearly what Webber does, and it looks like Andy Gumbel might be doing the same. Once again, it's all about Webber and his team radio.🙏🙏 🙏

I honestly can't believe what you guys are saying. You're just tearing into Webber left and right... Come on, give me three specific examples from this year where he actually ran his teammate off the track.
What happened this weekend is clear evidence that the entire team is playing favorites for Sebastian Vettel, and I won't even get started on that nonsense regarding the front wing... It's pure idiocy.

Hey everyone!
I spent the entire day breathing in the salt air under some pine trees and ended up missing the whole race. From what I’m hearing, things got heated, and Webber finally started showing some teeth to a team that seems hell-bent on turning him into the next Barrichell. 🙏

Did I miss anything else worth noting?

I’m going to skip over the whole Vettel-Webber dynamic and just focus on Kamui Kobayashi here... 🙏🙏🙏
And honestly, someone actually tried telling me after Valencia that he only grabbed 7th place because he got lucky, claiming he only jumped ahead of Fernando Alonso because of tire strategy, yet somehow he managed to pull off 6th now... 😕

Kamui Kobayashi, you absolute legend!

The Ferrari pit wall is an absolute disgrace. If they pulled a stunt like this once or twice a season, I wouldn't care, but to screw up nearly every single race...😲
They don't deserve a championship title, nor do they deserve any respect whatsoever.👎
It’s just pathetic, pathetic, pathetic.
Even a backmarker team like Virgin couldn't mess up this badly.🤷
As for Fernando Alonso, regardless of how you feel about him, he has every right to lose his mind. When you are being systematically dismantled by your own team, it’s hard to stay composed.
Which idiot failed to tell him to let the other car through? Even my two-year-old nephew could see that wasn't right.👎
The sheer wasted potential of this car... having a 0.6-second advantage and watching it vanish because of a bunch of morons on the pit wall... it's just infuriating...😠
