So you want Sauber to cease trading, thus costing the jobs and the livelihoods of 330+ people (most who have nothing to do with the VdG situation) because F1's financial structure forced Sauber into a desperate situation by signing multiple drivers? That's some great logic there!

Some people on this board are demonstrating zero knowledge of F1 and it's history, both past and recent. It has been repeated multiple times by multiple people recently that this isn't the first time that a team, sponsor, driver or someone else... has attempted to renege on a contract. Neither is it the first time a team, driver, sponsor or someone else... has been taken to court over a contract. The reactions some people have written in the past couple of weeks has been laughable. Get a grip.

Then there is the fact that in the past 12 months we've all been discussing the financial situation in F1 and the fact that the majority of teams are fighting for survival.

Anyway, rant over.


1) Yes, I would not care.
2) There is a reason you have been on my ignore list for years. No offense, I just don't care what you think or try to force upon people as the truth.

edit: oops typo.

Well aren't you a ray of sunshine.

Still. I finally know I'm on someone's ignore list :metal:

You can't not vote for Maldonado. But I wonder what Perez did wrong? I think his contact with button was nowhere near his fault


and what have Maldonado done wrong? Raikkonen once again goes back to the track without giving a shit about the others(as in Suzuka QLF 2012, Silverstone start last year). 100% his fault

These votes are a mockery, tbh

I must admit that I was focussing on Nasr who was getting squeezed between Raikkonen and Maldonado. Maldonado did not give enough room and was turning into Nasr, but I didn't see what Raikkonen was doing.

LOL, it irritates me too that you often mistake "your opinion" for "the truth" :D

Opinions are like arseholes, we've all got one.

When some people disagree with the facts laid out they call them "opinions", instead of discussing and trying to offer alternative facts or points of perspective. Some don't and we enjoy a good healthy debate. Whether we agree or not is largely irrelevant. Omega, you are the latter and I enjoy our discussions even if we don't always agree.

Then there is the fact I'm a cantankerous arsehole. I couldn't care less if I'm someone's ignore list. But using that as an excuse to hide away from a discussion is poor, especially after making such a cold statement as to wanting lots of people to lose their jobs because of a situation largely out of their control.

Perez was just too slow, looked like he was saving the car just like McLaren

Was surprised to see him behind Jenson Button for quite a while. Guess it was down to him and the under developed car.

I just failed quite badly. I voted for Mercedes instead of McLaren... oops :slaphead:

So, McLaren Honda for sucking so badly, Red Bull for their anonymous performance and Perez.
