F1 2008 - May Contain Spoilers
Turbo Mini Forums

Typical, glad Donnington got the GP from 2010.....just as Silverstone has the best race in years!

I'm going to bet that it will never be at Donnington.

ive only ever been to donny once and i cant remeber it being up2 F1 standard, was ok for 2cv racing tho lol

no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

great race and the rain wasn't that bad looked worse on TV. Massa was Crap... him and webber both spun but webber started overtaking.. massa stayed at the back slower than a Force India. Lewis drove hard all race car was moving arround all of the time. IMO he did a great job.

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.
VEMS + 12 PSI + Liquid Intercooler = Small Bore FUN!

thay had the europe race there a few years ago when senna, prost and mansell was kicking about.

great race well done lewis and had my best score in the leaque which was 122, but must have been a one off for me i recon lol

always looking for them bigger bunches of bannanas

i cant se f1 ever going to donnington, how would they deal with the crowds? its bad enough with motogp

"Turbo's make torque, and torque makes fun"

"did you know you can toast potato waffles?"

Listening to the changes they need for Donington, might actually ruin the track. Great idea with fans financing the project.

Edit....Spelt Donington wrong. Sorry Tom

Donnington is not a suitable track for modern f1. We love it there for our historic f1s, it suits them down to the ground. But how much will the paddock have to grow to get Bernie's circus in is going to be silly!

So what do you think of this new Valencia track? Seems abit wide for a pucker street race. Nice to see not many run off areas.

I think it'll be entertaining. Did anyone see the GP2 boys yesterday?

Nah..missed it. Heard something happened on the last lap, will try and download it later.

I didn't see the gp2 race, but i heard from one of the blokes at Isport who i did some work for that lots of people ran out of fuel on their last lap, including their man Bruno Senna! Ooops! Race is a bit moderate, got the tele in my part of the workshop at work to watch it all.

Why would they investigate ferrari AFTER the race?!?!

i have a strange feeling that if it was Mclaren then there would be a drive through penalty!

oooooooooooooooo raiko just nailed the feul geez!!! (glad he's droppend a place though! hehe) hope the pit fella is alright


it just got interesting as i typed this! ouch caust in the rear tyre!!!

Someone get Ferrari a lollipop man.

Its a scary job that. I was lucky enough to take place in a pitstop practice when i was at Honda f1 on work experience. Its bad enough just pushing the car in and going through the motions without the pressure of a race situation.

It would appear that there was somekind of jamming trying to release the rig from the car after the fuel bloke had given the go ahead!

Antman, can i ask how you got into forumla 1 even if it was just work experience? and what you do now?

what qualifications do you have etc etc?

im looking at going into motorsport (uni course etc) hopefully go onto a rallying team for a while but god damn formula 1 would be amazing!!

any advice/help/info would be awesome.


James.

Guys, it is DONINGTON Park not Donnington Park......

If it were ANY other team, the penalty against Massa would've been greater.

Also, re: the Raikkonen pit stop incident, it was clear to me there was no green light on his display board. Good job the guy's ok, looked nasty.

Fairplay to Raikkonen...he did stop rather sharpish, quick reactions.
The pit bloke looked as though his arm got caught up with the back wheel! Hope hes okay. Even last year, ferrari lost alot without Ross Brawn.

so did they just fine ferrari then did they?
