Oh the ironing.

I have criticised Hamilton, Button and pretty much most drivers in the past... So as always, your point and opinion mean f**k all...

[oafc0000]

So what difference does Coulthard's nationality make?

[sifi]

I think that's very very harsh. Racing in different formulae was just how it was then. (and with many of the circuits of the day its quite likely no-one would see you crash.) Would you include Graham Hill in your list because he died in an accident related to his not-exactly-brilliant own team?

[Benj]

I think you are probably going to be shit out of luck.

No, I wouldn't - because he was in a plane, wasn't he? And he wasn't racing.

Clark really didn't have to be there. From all the biographies I read, he wanted to be there. He loved it.

[oafc0000]

People always look back with rosy specs, how many championships in the past were won on reliability, loads

[sifi]

Rubbish... The super slow reply the BBC showed had it less than a second... This is backed up by the FACT that they where not punished for a unsafe release... Eddie Jordan said they did nothing wrong. In fact the only person who thought they did something questionable was the bias scot.

[sifi]

Isn't that all that matters Mr Elitist ?

No, I wouldn't - because he was in a plane, wasn't he? And he wasn't racing.

[sifi]

Well yeah, but he was coming back from a testing session. If he hadn't of loved the thrill of racing so much, he wouldn't have set up his own team, he wouldn't have been there etc. Not massively dissimilar to Clark. He didn't have to be there, but he wanted to be.

[oafc0000]

What the f**k would you know about it? You didn't even know he was Scottish two weeks ago Mr Ignorant?

[Benj]

And Martin Brundle - and the super slow reply (whatever that is) showed it was not less than a second, as Vettel was clearly alongside and Hamilton was spinning his wheels.

I suggest you investigate the facts before falling back before bringing up the race card.

And the word is biased. Not bias.

I don't see how a plane crash and a guy racing in a race he didn't have to be in is the same thing at all, to be honest.

I can see similarities between Clark and say Mike Hawthorne.

[sifi]

WTF ? Ah f**k off and go bully some other black man...

[sifi]

They were both accidents, and their love of racing was the reason that they were in their respective vehicles when they both crashed.

[Kowalski]

Dosen't make any difference, just makes it clear who I am talking about...

[Benj]

They were both accidents, and their love of racing was the reason that they were in their respective vehicles when they both crashed.

Hawthorn is something slightly different; depending on what you read/believe, he was racing Rob Walker on public roads and blacked out.

[sifi]

Brundle criticised him too though, but let's not let that get in the way of your xenophobic views.

[Benj]

Alright - you can add Hill to the list then.

Benj - I commended Hamilton for his overtaking the very sentence before I described him as dick for driving at speed nearly through the Williams team. I stand by it. He was a dick for doing that.

[Kowalski]

It was great to watch and as I say, if it had happened in the 70s/ 80s people would still be raving about it now

[sifi]

He nearly drives into the Williams pit as he's reacted to Vettel being there, not because he's being a dick, his crew let him out he loses traction on the white lines, avoiding a collision with Vettel.

[Benj]

Seriously?

I didn't think it was that much of an incident.

Edited April 19, 2010 by Benj

[Benj]

By the time he's halfway into the Williams pit, he should have slowed down and gone behind Vettel. But instead of doing that, he's happy to be a dick, put people in danger and not yield when he hasn't got the right of way.

That's why he's a dick.

[Gre]

The only pitlane crash I can remember of the top of my head, is Hamilton crashing into Raikonnen after ballsing up in Canada and again that was actually due to some daft safety restriction
