You don't need to be a fabs to know rain will definitely happen at some point this weekend.

If it happens while they're all standing around doing post race interviews tho, will fume.

And then once BTCC starts and Plato wins a couple of races or makes minor contact with someone or talks to the ITV crew, will fume.

I dunno I put "a fabs" by mistake in the original quote so thought that's what you were picking me up on.
This has all been a disaster, am sorry, plz dnt h8

And Kals, my Doctor has recommended I ease up on Platohate this year. Hopefully with all the excess of other drivers it'll be easier to focus on something else, for my heart's sake :p

We all suffer from Plhate-o syndrome. My doctor said it's incurable.

It's almost as if there'll be a prediction for rain in an F1 race and at the last minute, it won't deliver.

Don't think that's ever happened before?

There were questions whether F1 would do a minute of silence regarding MH370. Apparently, they will do even more than that. There will be over 100 minutes of silence

don't know if it's appropriate to make a joke with this, sorry if somebody got offended

funny to see this one again, in today's racing standards this is a perfectly clean move. I remember going crazy in 2000 because of the outrageous move of Schumacher

I think it's just a sign of how he made this sort of driving the norm, much as Senna did before him. Still Coulthard's reaction will always be epic. His best race?

I've always believed that Coulthard was just waiting for the right opportunity to do that to Schumacher. He would probably be suspended for half the season if he did that now.,...or be forced to do some FIA sanctioned public service.

I was a huge Schumi fan at the time and to this day I still think DC is being a dick at that moment. Schumi doesn't do much wrong there, he's merely protecting his line.

Or a more suitable headline - "Hotel redeems advance bookings as is standard practice"

I think it was Massa who starting being really agressive defending his positions, and getting away with it. Then GP2 crazy drivers started doing the same. And we kept seeing Massa do that to Hamilton many times. That Fia let this happen is the most retarded thing, first you make DRS and Kers to make overtakes, then you let them do this. It would be really great to have people respecting others lines, making for some amazing side-by-side action. One thing that I really enjoy about Nascar. Just check some road course races at Infineon.

Anyway, I pull for Massa, but I really hate how he started defending his positions and smiled everytime he crashed because of it.

Well, they may have influenced the way that Massa defends his position, but it was only when he began to consistently display this behavior that it really became the norm, especially after all incidents with Hamilton. But I recall him vs Button in Melbourne 2011 as well to begin.

Massa had pressure from all sides, and the only thing he could do against the top drivers while driving that Ferrari designed for Alonso, was to defend his position with all his might, FIA had to have done something to stop him the moment he started but no. Such aggressive behavior became the norm then. That attitude got more popular after the Hamilton incidents, and then I noticed GP2 started doing as well, everyone began to defend the position like an idiot. They did not make that before, not in that way so often at least.

No that way of defending became the norm at least 10 years before that thanks to Senna and Schumacer
