Official 2011 Formula 1 Season Thread
 

So i figured we all on this forum are automotive enthusiast so like last year here is the thread to discuss any and everything Formula 1. We can also use this thread for GP2 discussions as well.

Here are a few site I use regularly through out the season

So here are my likings and opinions to start....My driver is Lewis Hamilton where ever he drives thats my team. Im a fan of Massa and Hiedfeld hope to see them do well and compete this season too.

What are your guys" thoughts on the new perelli tyres an adjustable wing and the return of the KERS system....Discuss.

Alonso is probably my favorite driver. he can adapt to nearly anything and MAKE a slow car quick. i'm really bummed that Kubica might never race F1 again; he's very talented. other than that, there's only one driver in the field that i don't care a whole lot for, and that's because he wrecked his teammate out basically twice last year. totally uncalled for.

i'm glad they made the tires less durable, but hopefully it doesn't make passing impossible later in the race due to marbling/clag off-line. at least it will make tire management more important. Button might very well have an advantage, since he's very very smooth.

as for KERS and the rear wings, that's a lot for the driver to manipulate between corners.

gonna be an interesting year!

Yes Vettel is a Duuch and webber is kinda of a **** both talented none the less. i like alonso when he drove the blue renaults battling shumi back in the day i dont think vettel will repeat but he will compete. i think this season will come down to both mclearan drivers, alonso, vettel and going out on a limb and say it time for shumi to shake things up a bit

i have no problem with Vettel. in fact, i think he's great. :D but Alonso is just the coolest guy on the grid, haha. have you SEEN his mustache???

that said, i miss Raikkonen and his robotic interviews, haha.

yes raikkonen is a robot lol thought for sure he would have been back this year. to me alonso has become more of a cry baby though sinc he left reanault the first time...e.g. when massa was whooping is ass in that on race he bitch and bitch that he was slowing him down when the fact is massa was way ahead..granted alonso was catching up fast so if he knew he was faster he would have caought him anyway the use the mighty skillzz he has and pass him like a man not that bitchassness crap with the team orders lol

Tonight is the first practice Australian GP, this year I'm pulling for mark Webber

Alonso is such a ***. He is also the Doooooouuuuuchiesnt of doucess and the biggest frikkin cry baby primadonna that has graced the grid in recent years.

Kimmi = King.

***double post highlights Alonso's epic douche level and Kimi's awesomeness***

man i cant wait for tomorrow its the only time i dont have to stay up past midnight to watch the races.

this year im going to mostly support renault and heidfeld, and webber because he's aussie but as always i'll be going for ferrari like i have since schumi was racing for them in the late 90's

i disagree with the first part. Kimi is awesome though.

I don't follow F1 but this shit made me laugh out loud! :bellyroll::bellyroll::bellyroll::bellyroll:

So mcleran finally showed somewhat of the true pace, lotus renault off a bit cant wait for qualifying

Anyone have this app on their smart phone? Its really cool you can follow one or all drivers

yea theres the soft pauer app and the free f1.com app the one i had last year, but i dont have an iphone any more so i cant get it but i did make the fiance download it on her phone so i can still watch it :) only for prac and qualy tho i dont think i could watch the race in live timing only

I have the free 2011 version still live timing and all just no following the drivers. cool to have but not worth the $33 imo..

So who was yor guys" most impressive driver...i must say petrov glad he made the podium hope he stays consistent most disapointed in button he fucked himself by cutting that chicane knowing he would have passed massa, he got scared cause alonso was creeping up. he prolly woiuld have got petrov towards the end i think too.

Malaysia next cant wait for it ( wet race anyone lol)

Here it is up next Kuala Lumpur

vettel is on a roll, red bull renault is so strong on the Q3 of the qualifying 2mins still on the clock they just went back to the garage lol

Sadly, Adrian Newey has given Red Bull such an advantage that teams are competing for 3rd place.

Here is a cool video from KL. Crank it up to 1080 and enjoy.
