Kamui Kobayashi? Why would they go after him? He's basically part of the same crowd being investigated, isn't he? 🤷

Burger King is way better 🤣 🤣

stormybadger8 said:mistybear87 open a thread: Kamui Kobayashi is the world champion right this second 🙂

What a drive, pure Kamikaze 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I mean, even Chandok might have been able to drive like that on fresh, soft tires
He wouldn't have overtaken anyone quite like that, though... 😬

Yessssssss....Kamui Kobayashi!!!

So Jenson Button tells Sebastian Vettel that Germany just took the lead, but he’s pretty sure England is gonna swoop in later 😂 😂

Locked 😢😢😢😢

mistybear87, open this up 🙂

Heading over to the soccer forum 👋

stormybadger8 said:Don't give me that. The question is whether Vettel, Alonso, or Hamilton could even handle this junk for a full race on one set of tires while holding everyone off. ☕

The kid is phenomenal. He was the best out there today—hands down. Even if he did overtake Sebastian Vettel on the final lap. 😳

Just because he passed your favorite driver doesn't mean you get to trash a little genius. 🙏 🙏 🙏

Stop fighting over nonsense!

Kamui had a fresh set of tires to make that pass☕—mistybear87 said the exact same thing, since apparently you won't listen to me.
I didn't say he drove well—I mean, yeah, he had guts, but there's no need for everyone to act like he's the second coming. He's not *that* much of a genius.☕
But hey, since you always feel the need to go overboard, go right ahead.

I don't think so...

but seriously, forget just one part, the whole race🙏

they need the guts to run the same tires for the entire race while keeping everyone behind them, and then hit them with that final attack at the end🙏

1, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 22

Jenson Button, Rubens Barrichello, Nico Hulkenberg, Robert Kubica, Vitaly Petrov, Adrian Sutil, Vitantonio Liuzzi, Sebastien Buemi, Pedro de la Rosa, Kamui Kobayashi

Kamui can only move up if something happens to these guys, especially right in front of that Spanish jerk. 🙂

That’s the crew that headed into the pits right when the Safety Car came out on track. The big question is whether they all ran through on red, or what? I suppose we'll just have to wait and see how it all unfolds.

If they're found to be in the wrong, they'll likely face a 25-second penalty, which would knock pretty much everyone out of the points.

I don't think any penalties are actually coming...

Basically, it's a podium spot for Kamui Kobayashi if everyone ahead of him completely tanks it. If they don't, well, still fine, but this would be 🙏👍

Go back and actually read the post you're quoting before you try to lecture me. ☕

He did the exact same thing Alonso did in Monaco, and honestly, even better. And yet, you guys were all over Alonso. Kamui pulled off an entire race stint on the same set of tires 🙏—three laps, and in those three laps, he overtook two cars 🙏—you can try to philosophize and say it’s nothing, but the kid is driving a car that literally falls apart during races. To pull that off? Props to him. Overtaking someone's little favorite doesn't mean we should mock him or downplay an incredibly impressive result.

Kamuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii, absolute genius!! Bravo, bravo!! 🙏 🙏

There, you happy now?🤷
I'm not changing my mind, even if you stand on your head to try and convince me, so you might as well give it up while you can. And where on earth did you see me trash-talking him???

Meanwhile, Felipe Massa and Fernando Alonso are sliding right into their well-earned positions...

Nonsense. I have no idea which race you were watching, but that was clearly a Sauber... 🤷

Henry Morris3 said:Instead of actually worrying about his pace or whether he’s dropping a second per lap, he’s just over there rambling on about penalties and hoping someone else’s engine blows up... Honestly, I hope his car gives out before the race is even over.

If you have ever actually encountered a dictionary in your life—though, given our conversation, I highly doubt it—I don't think you've ever put one to use. But, with the best of intentions, I’ll leave you with a little homework: perhaps look up the definition of the word 'hypocrite' and see if any of it rings a bell...

Christian Williams61 said:I feel the exact same way about you👋

If I may, allow me to offer a categorization inspired by Con Aira—to me, you fall somewhere between a cockroach and that white film that builds up in the corners of your mouth when you're desperately thirsty.

Henry Morris3 said:Of course I'm not... but that doesn't mean I can't point out when someone is being completely incompetent or just acting soft...

All you're really doing is highlighting your own bird-sized brain...

Basically, it seems obvious to me that Alonso is coming from a place of moral superiority here—which, let's be honest, isn't always his strongest suit. Lewis gained so much more by bending the rules (even with his 'penalty') than Alonso did by following them. So, what's the issue with Alonso demanding they fix this absolute mess that cost him 15 points? If Lewis's penalty had been applied properly right after the SC pulled off the track during the first lap, it would have actually mattered... instead, it was totally ineffective... and unfair. Cheers. 😉

Yeah, and? It just happened to work out for Sauber to have one decent race. Honestly, it’s the same kind of thing that happened with that absolute junk pile from Renault last year.
