    Bobdredds commented on the post, Raikkonen doesn’t understand tyre complaints 1 month, 1 week ago

    “Author: MB
    Comment:
    Romain is having issues with tyre management. What do you have to say about that?” I couldn’t find your comment MB so I will reply here.

    Romain’s issues are not down to the tyre but […]

    Yes, yes, yes. Scrap DRS anyway.

    Bobdredds commented on the post, Raikkonen doesn’t understand tyre complaints 1 month, 1 week ago

    What he is really saying is that McLaren dont have a fast car and he’s just trying to maximise the situation. People have been protecting their tyres for years we just never heard it during a race like that before […]

    Agreed, it’s the constant moaning that’s annoying. I suppose thats the price for giving everyone a stage for their opinions and I guess it’s still worth it regardless. :)

    Bobdredds commented on the post, Pirelli swaps soft tyre for medium in Bahrain 1 month, 1 week ago

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula1/22147074 Have a read of Gary Andersons views on tyres and also note that Kimi doen’t understand what the fuss about the tyre’s is either. Who cares if the tyres only last for […]

    Bobdredds commented on the post, Pirelli swaps soft tyre for medium in Bahrain 1 month, 1 week ago

    I ran three teams during the tyre-war era of the late 1990s and early 2000s, which some are saying was a time when drivers could push right to the limit all the time. But that’s a fallacy. They could never go 100% […]

    Because it wouldn’t work, if you give the teams that kind of choice than only 3 or 4 teams would bnefit. F1 is about presenting a technical and driver challenge and keeping a balance between the two. Let the teams […]

    They only deserve to dominate if it works on all tracks. The tyres were changed previously to end Schumachers dominence so it’s not a new thing in F1. I also question your view that Vettel is the best driver, […]

    Bobdredds commented on the post, Pirelli swaps soft tyre for medium in Bahrain 1 month, 1 week ago

    I agree, I think Pirelli have done a good job and the story for me is how cars that concentrated on race setup over quali are coming to the fore. It evens up the field. Now there is a price to pay for trashing […]

    Ecclestone chasing free Sky Sports F1 boxe:
    “Ecclestone’s comments also suggest that he may be open to the entire season returning to a free-to-air channel in the near future”
    Looks like the Sky move was a […]

    This reviewer highlights the reasons I have no interest in watching the movie but I have no interest in offending anyone who choses to watch it or disagrees with my view. Prost deserves better though and was the […]

    Fair point on Briatore, I meant drivers on track. Engineering an accident on track is completely unacceptable and is a line when crossed brings heavy penalties as the Briatore affair shows.
    That is the linee Senna Crossed.

    Yes it was worse than Schumacher in Monaco because it was premeditated while Schumacher’s move was opportuinistic. To justify what Senna did at Suzuka by saying he was reacting to an injustice is nonsense IMO, He […]

    Well I am not trying to “win” anything just putting my dissagreement with the BBC’s listing him as the greatest. Jim Clarks understanding of his car and how he translated it to his engineer(Colin Chapman) was pure […]

    While I am uncomfortable criticising someone who died so young I am appalled by the exaggerated view that Senna was the greatest F1 driver of all time. Yes he was an outatanding driver but he wasn’t the greatest. […]

    Bobdredds commented on the post, Should Schumacher keep on racing? 7 months, 3 weeks ago

    The Ferrari rumours are gathering pace but you have to ask why did Michael not pick up the option earlier in the year. If he was going to retire then it could have easily been done to coincide with Lewis joining […]

    Sauber : Ferrari engine+easy on tyres+schumacher=formidable opponent any way you look at iit. With next seasons rules being pretty stable it would be a good pairing IMHO!

    Montezemelo is just crazy enough to go for it.
    it also give some much needed relief to my 3 year long bout of schizophrenia.:)
