F1 2010: Turkish GP.

[Wing_Z]

F1 racing is so difficult to judge - what you see isn't necessarily what happened

When the Red Bulls collided, I thought "Oh no, Webber, you klutz! Whyn't you get out of the way".
Then I ran the replay over and over, and you could see Webber resolutely driving his racing line.
Vettel was the one who jinked right, and made the connection.
I thought "Sebastian, you klutz! Why'd you run into Mark!"
Martin Brundle called it the same way.

Now the RBR team is edging the other way!

It's a tough sport, you have to have a really cool head in the midst of all that red mist...

Loved the 2 McLarens then having a go at each other - I think they got the bollocking of their lives from the team bosses.
"Fuel critical" over team radio must be code for "try this one more time and your contract is up for renegotiation!"

I suspected as much last year about Vettel, now he's confirmed it. Very fast at the wheel...but not much more than anoughter brainless leadfoot. Not content with smashing himself out of the points he took his own team down a peg to.

Off topic...hey Wombat, in case you missed the advert's Ten's "One HD" channel is starting the 2010 Isle of Man TT replays this Friday (I think). Really enjoyed that stuff last year.

Red Bull boss Marko still hasn't given up...(Even I'll admit this is a bad thing to do to your drivers)

Oh dear...

sounds more and more like a conspiracy.
Poor ol' Mark Webber, he thought he had it good for a while there.

Well,
If Webber continues to out-perform Vettel, perhaps things will change at the RBR ownership level....

Last I heard the team had told Webber to go into a fuel conservation mode first and followed up with the same message to Vettel.
Vettel appears to have decided he had to make a move on Webber right then or it would be all over............as it indeed was!!
As for the future, Vettel is 'German', Mako is 'Austrian' (and an F1 dud FWIW) so the probable outcome is obvious.


And a PS: Dem, as well as the IOM (can't wait!!!) One HD have live coverage of Le Mans listed, so my better half will be 'away' for that weekend!!!
