Thanks for that video Stefmeister...but this track looks like it full of so many un necessaries. Un necessarily twisty in the middle section, looks worse than i thought it was, and then that mind numbingly pointlessly long back straight. Tilke obviously thought Abu Dabi, Korea and India were the greatest tracks he has ever built, so looks like he decided to do a "best of" track. Yes I know it is meant to replecate the great corners but it looks so Tilke like, which means pointless and bland. He and the FIA even managed to make Turkey look bland.

Barrichello believes that Williams would have benefited from his presence
http://www.f1zone.net/news/barrichello- ... -me/15311/

And regarding Maldonado, he does have a point.

Would be interesting to know what the dynamic within Willams is - because Maldonado brings so much money to the team, is there anyone who can discipline him when he needs it?

If Barrichello had stayed on I don't think he would have had the pace of Maldonado, but I think he would have been faster than Senna and would have bought the car back in the points consistently.

Yes Barrichello would have been competant in the Williams but quite simply, I'm perfectly happy he's not there.

They do have Alex Wurz as a driver coach.

It seems almost certain Bottas will be in the car in 2013 (at some point), in place of Senna, which is a shame. So long as the PDVSA contract remains in place (and it is for 5 years), Pastor is in the car. Unless another team comes calling for his services or another bright Venezuelan talent pops up. And I'd rather Maldonado than Johnny Cecotto Jr.

Fun fact; Bruno has finished in the points more often this season than his team-mate, Schumacher, both Sauber drivers, and just as frequently as Grosjean.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Fun fact; most people are completely ignorant of Bruno's actual achievements this year

Yes, that's annoying.

It's like when people say that Massa's still slower than molasses. Since Monaco he has been at most 15-20 seconds behind Alonso's race pace.

Now he just needs to stop hitting things.

Anyway, Mark Webber's helmet design for Singapore, a 17year old kid from Croatia did it.

Nice design, but the character looks more like James Allen.
