China Trip - Shanghai (April 19, 2009)

darkmarlin16 said:Hamilton seems to rely more on luck than actual intellect

Well, I wouldn't call it luck... I'd call it pure expertise, my friend.😉

Same here... the shots look killer 🙂

but honestly, the profile view is just too much 😍 style icon: :modnimačak: 😁

So, since when did Red Bull Racing stop being an Austrian outfit? Seriously, what gives?
🤷

Tyler Carter33 said:Hamilton is clearly a top-tier driver; at least he knows how to maintain control and get back on track. It’s a far cry from certain teams who don't even need to curse to realize they're stuck at the back—looking at you, Ferrari. Kimi and Massa were once again nothing special today.
Vettel showed some promise, but his consistency just isn't there yet, so I'm curious to see how he handles the upcoming races.
Alonso taking second in qualifying only to end up with zero points... honestly, what can you even say about that?
As for Rosberg, those tires were a nightmare, and the strategy left much to be desired.

Am I sensing the presence of yet another McLaren fan in here?🙏😍

Just a little observation.😉

awwwwwwwwwwwwww 😍

Brenda Jones7 said:4. Nelson Piquet's gravel trap 😂😂

Nelson Piquet is seriously starting to get on my nerves.🙄
honestly, someone needs to reserve five front wings just for him to smash up
And if they could actually pull any useful data from his driving today, though they probably couldn't.
Then he goes on about how massive Fernando Alonso's paycheck is, while when they were cutting costs, they couldn't even touch his because he's just some small-timer. As if anyone would bother. It's always excuses and always something wrong with his car.🙄

Looks like nobody was impressed today, especially with Alonso's drive, but it wasn't all bad—he climbed from last to maybe 6th, and then screw it, he had to pit, so he went from 13th to 9th. Just bad luck.

You’re absolutely right, ironfalcon43, and you’re clearly a massive Lewis Hamilton fan 😉!!

Kudos to Sebastian Vettel and the Red Bull crew for pulling an all-nighter to sort out that axle issue 🙏🙏
McLaren 🙏🙏 just keeps getting faster by the day... though watching Lewis Hamilton spin out 🤣 and overtake 🙏 🙏 is enough to give anyone a headache, and honestly, even Heikki Kovalainen showed a bit of life today 🙏
Fernando Alonso 🙏

All things considered, it was a decent race.....

Alonso absolutely wrecked the start under SC

Excellent😉

In that case, welcome to the group🙏🙏🙏

We happen to be the largest and most dedicated group of supporters on this entire forum😬

We aren't the type to go looking for trouble or attack others, but we certainly stand our ground when it matters... I suppose that’s what sets us apart from the rest of the crowd here😉

🤣 🙏 🤮

It appears Ferrari is more preoccupied with their laboratory experiments than actually competing in the Formula 1 World Championship...

Jonathan Booth5 said:🤣 🙏 🤮

I mean, hey, if nothing else, at least he actually stayed on the track and managed to overtake Kimi three times.😁

Since my buddy isn't around to chime in, I'll step in for him:

GO FELIPE GO

🤣

Man, imagine how much better things would be at McLaren if they still had Alex Wurz acting as their test driver.🤣

Jonathan Booth5 said:Since I don't have any dimwitted buddies around to speak up for me, I guess I'll just do it myself:

GO FELIPE GO

🤣

Man, imagine how different things would be at McLaren if they still had Alex Wurz acting as their test driver🤣

Say, if they had that Brawn KERS system🤣🤣

If they don't make the move, Fernando Alonso will simply grab that seat at Ferrari; there isn't much left for him to learn from Pedro de la Rosa 🙏

Kudos to Red Bull—honestly, I hope more teams start winning; it’ll make this season a lot more interesting. My guys absolutely botched the strategy for Nico Rosberg, and there was just nothing we could do for Kazuki Nakajima given how the track kept switching between wet and dry. I really feel for Adrian Sutil, too; he deserved to walk away with a point for once. We haven't actually seen a "normal" race yet this year, so I'm looking forward to a solid one in Bahrain.

ironfalcon43 said:and I think it’s common knowledge that at McLaren, they don't differentiate between a lead driver and a number two😬

🤣 😂 🤣

just the first 😁

anyway... I'm speechless (well, regarding the race)..🤷

but who cares 😬

let's go SUPER AGURI !!! 🙏 🙏
🤷

Samuel Cruz61 said:just during the first 😁

man, I’m speechless... though that race was actually decent🤷

but whatever, who cares😬

come on, let's go SUPER AGURI!!! 🙏 🙏
🤷

Buddy, you're about a year off on your facts😉 👍

Arthur Doyle70 said:My friend, you seem to have missed an entire year of history here.😉 👍

Long live SAF1! 😍

I’ve had enough of this rain. I used to pray for it, but now it’s honestly making me sick.😬

Hmm... when was the last time Webber actually stood on the podium?
