JAPAN GP this weekend!
The Japanese love their motorsports and love F1.
GO GO Kamui !




I wanna say it here first, if this fella can join a competitive team, one of the top 4, he CAN fight for the world championship and maybe drivers champion.






Looks like Liuzzi wears an AP now also!


I soooo want a pair of Alpine Stars!



Gonna be this weekend you think?






Vrrrrooommmm vvvrrrroooommm!

Vettel takes the Korea GP!  :Cheers:
Lewis Hamilton was 2nd but can't muster a smile on the podium.
Now there's an example of a guy who's finding it hard to smell the roses along the journey.  :Mad:
Take care, Ciao!  :thumbsup:

What you mean "will"?
They already DID.
They even took the constructors championship yesterday.

Race not game ;D

Yeah next is India.

I think battle for 2nd in drivers and 5th-6th for constructors as the points is very close there.

Yes, Takashi is right.
Vettel and Red Bull Racing has clinched the F1 Championship in the Drivers and Constructor category respectively. No doubt about that.
The only thing worth watching is who will take no. 2  in Drivers and 5 - 6 placing in the constructor category in the next race, India.

Indian Grand Prix today.
Only thing that interests me is.....will Hamilton take out his frustration (of a lousy season & loosing Nicole) by crashing into Massa at the 1st corner?  :HammerHead:
Otherwise, it looks like another straightforward race for Vettel & the Red Bulls.  :thumbsup:

Last weekend many interesting sports event (for me ) - Indian F1 race, Euro vs Asia Table Tennis, CIMB Asia Pacific Golf at the Mines Resort and BWF France Open.

Vettel is the undispute King of F1. Even though he has clinched the championship, he still drove hard and furious to be the top "dog" in F1.

Cheers.

Maybe Massa was trying to ask Hamilton for Nicole's phone number?  :Laughing_on_floor:
BTW, why were the 2 of them standing side-by-side during the minute of silence ceremony?  ???
Congrats to Vettel for another solid drive.
3 (present & past) world champions on the podium - good signs for a more challenging season to come (hopefully!).
Take care, Ciao!  :thumbsup:

Lewis Hamilton, the 26-yo Briton won the Abu Dhabi GP.
It was a rare retirement of Vettel which pave way for Hamilton to win.
I saw from the TV that the structure at Abu Dhabi GP were unique and very beautiful.

An act of God, maybe?  :Laughing_on_floor:
Or, since already has the Drivers Championship in hand, all the "bad lucks" is happening at this time?  :HammerHead:
Can only wait for the official news on what really happen to Vettel's blow-out.

Once again, 3 past champs on the podium.
I think the next season's gonna be more exciting, provided Ferrari & McClaren get their acts right.
I feel Webber could be on his way out of Red Bull based on his last few races. Same car as Vettel but can't match Alonso, Button nor Hamilton.
Writing's on the wall, Mate.

Is he still active in motor racing?
I still remember him crashing in the Monaco GP & then cooly walked back to his yacht to relax, without telling his team. 
They called him the Iceman for good reasons.  :Dancing_banana: :Jumping: :Dancing_banana: :Jumping:

De la Rosa to return with HRT in 2012 :o
http://www.gpupdate.net/en/f1-news/271814/de-la-rosa-to-return-with-hrt-in-2012/

Damn the old farts really need to give the young drivers a chance to be in F1.
Well at least the times he substituted for other drivers and in his short racing career he was still quite fast.
Hopefully all his years at Mclaren as test driver will propel HRT to advance more than they are now.
