My Dad's the sound assistant for the BBC F1 coverage, but as of yet he hasn't been able to blag me a trip anywhere! ;D

Funny how they were having some sound issues today with it cutting off for a few seconds from time to time nothing major though lol... BUT OMG today was epic the performance by lewis wasd INCREDIBLE the best qualifying i have seen it was sooo close and as for the news of mansell crashing out in le mans all i can say is he is a stuck-up tw*t refer to this - http://www.dailymail...s-Hamilton.html He doesnt half talk sh*t and he just wasted money while he was in f1... tbo i think he is just purely jelous this is what he has said before saying lewis was manafactuered "He's been brought on from a very early age, with full sponsorship for the last 10 years, and he's been taken through all of the formulas with no money spared. It is wonderful." ... notice how he says 10 years of sponsorship lol... (lewis is 23) making that since he is 13 not 7

If your calling Mansell, one of the greatest british racing drivers of all time a *melon* then you clearly don't understand motorsport.

He's right, Lewis has been manafactured. After two year's of karting he was spotted by Mclaren, and ever since that moment hes had nothing but the best machinery to help him win. If i had a karting contract worth 2 and a half million, i would have won the Formula 1 world championship a long time ago... As you would of, of anybody really. With that kind of backing it'd be hard not be good. Sure, Lewis has talent, but compare Lewis's journey to the top against Nigel's and you really will see the men seperated from the boys...

And considering in December Nigel didn't even know he would be running a car in Lemans this year hes done an amazing job at putting a TEAM together in less than half a year, and he's done amazing, he was running 1st in practice on wednesday, in a car team that didn't exist 6 months ago, that's an acheivement.

Oh, and not to forget that Mansell is probably the driver that has acheived the most victories for Britian in motorsport, ever? To be a champion in Formula 1, CART and GP master's you need to be pretty special.

Sorry sir :shifty: i guess i shouldnt talk about him in a negative way when i dont really know much about him and his f1 career. - Now onto todays race: Wasnt as action packed as expected but was a very close competetive race ending with hamilton 1st and jenson 2nd couldnt have gone any better... and talk about a terrible forcast expecting thunderstorms and rain when it wass hot and sunny all day XD

Sorry, never meant to jump on you like that! friends again? :shifty:

Yup, today's result was brilliant! couldnt have been any better really. Missed a bit of it coming back from the show today but coming back to a Mclaren 1-2 was a treat that i wasnt expecting. Vettle really wasn't happy with the car today was he?

I agree, very much looking forward to Canada. I want to see how many people get caught out by the last corner.


I'll nominate Koboyashi for that one! :dontgetit:

Just like to point out I predicted the future! Haha, Koboyashi is a legend... :P

NOTE: to all attending silverstone this year there will be large plasma screens placed around the track for increased viewing pleasure...also since the world cup final is kicking off at 7:30 after the race there is chance they will put it on the screens!!!
