Gibot123 16 Report post Posted August 25, 2013 Yes agreed . Thought it was a shame for Di Resta just not his weekend . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
K9d 108 Report post Posted August 25, 2013 Yep, he was unfortunate today would love to see him in a better car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gibot123 16 Report post Posted August 25, 2013 There was a mention today they may consider him for a seat at Ferrari . That all depends on what they decided to do with Massa though. Difficult as I think Alonso is getting a little more than the car is really capable of so think Massa is a pretty solid gamble at the mo. Kimi has also been mentioned though so will be interesting to watch it unfold. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

divadiva 15 Report post Posted September 2, 2013 Yes, 'silly season' as it's rightly called. Stefano has said he wants Felipe to stay but will be dependent on his results in the remaining races. So much gossip the last few weeks - one report that Seb will go to Ferrari and Alo to RBR (really can't see that happening). I'd quite like to see Kimi back at Ferrari - what a strong team him and Alo would make (although can't see him seamlessly slotting into No.2 driver slot), probably why Luca is said not to be keen on the idea. So many other drivers named as contenders for Felipe's seat - JEV or possibly Bianch would be my choice if not Kimi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
divadiva 15 Report post Posted September 2, 2013 (edited) A magnificant race - action packed as it usually is. Driver of the day for me was Fernando.....9th to 2nd some achievement on a track like Spa. So pleased the Greenpeace protesters who parachuted in for the occasion didn't ruin things.

twisted_pr 16 Report post Posted September 2, 2013 Why not watch the Italian GP on the big screen at Sharnbrook this Sunday, and oggle some real life Supercars too? (See London & South East Events forum). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gibot123 16 Report post Posted September 3, 2013 I would have loved to but just taxed the car today and that's me skint for the next few weeks . Shame would have been great. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

divadiva 15 Report post Posted September 3, 2013 After one of the worst kept 'secrets' this season in F1 was reavealed yesterday (Ricciardo driving next season for RBR), Christain Horner today said he won't be treated like a No. 2 driver at RBR....yeah right! http://www.espn.co.uk/redbull/motorsport/story/123057.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gibot123 16 Report post Posted September 6, 2013 Looking interesting for qualifying tomorrow . Mercedes looking strong so are Red bull and Ferrari . Red bull are using a super low downforce set up if you get a chance have a look at the front wing its a work of art. Keeping my fingers crossed for Alonso but was expecting a little more in FP1 and 2 but not sure the car looked a bit nervous . Have to see what happens in FP3 tomorrow morning. Hopefully they can get right on the pace for qualifying . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
K9d 108 Report post Posted September 6, 2013 Watching FP1 at the moment, well more listening than watching, its good to get a bit more insight. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
