Re: Rate The Australian Grand Prix
^^ dont blame hamilton he didnt make the overtaking rule under safethy car from what i read hamilton gave the place back to truli gentlemanly conduct. unfortunatly i am sure we both know the protesting will continue way throughout the season[/quote]dazmoffman wrote:[quote="blizzard"
Now sort this whole protesting fiasko out and we´re all eagerly anticipating Malaysia.
Hamilton beeing lucky in the end, after Trulli got a penalty.

Just look up who I voted best driver mate. That will surely answer the question, wether I blame Hamilton for anything
Fact is Vettel, Kubica and Trulli all "out", so +3 for Lewis.

Re: Rate The Australian Grand Prix
Race: 9/10
Fantastic opening race, and apart from about 10 laps in the middle, there were hardly moments with no action on track. Many beautiful overtaking and battles, and in the end, the fight for the race victory got very close with Kubica storming to the top which made it even more interesting. An F1 season couldn't kick off in a better way! But just in case there are better races this season and because of the 10 less interesting laps... I'm gonna give it a 9.
1 - Best Driver: Buemi; Great and flawless drive, points in his very first race ain't bad!
2 - Best Team: Brawn GP, no doubt!
3 - Best Overtake: There were so many! But I'd say Glock and Alonso fighting in three corners
4 - Best Moment: Three-way battle for the victory in the end
5 - Worst Driver: Piquet, definitely!
6- Worst Team: Ferrari, no pace and reliability... no, let's not talk about that
7 - Biggest Surprise: Toyota catching up from the back
8 - General Comment: A shame Trulli was penalised, he had a great race! Apart from that, a superb first race, the rule changes definitely made F1 more interesting!

Re: Rate The Australian Grand Prix
1 - Best Driver - Button
2 - Best Team - Brawn
3 - Best Overtake - Rosberg on Kimi or one of Hamilton's do or dies
4 - Best Moment - Button winning or the Safety Car finish (lol)
5 - Worst Driver - Without a doubt, Piquet. The guy hasn't improved at all since last year.
6 - Worst Team - Ferrari, no points and reliability issues. Very poor.
7 - Biggest Surprise - Hamilton 4th (on original result). Veru surprising.
8 - General Comment - Very good BBC coverage, didn't know they were showing onboard online so at least ill know for next time. Very good 1 hour analysis after as well. 10/10 for the Beeb.
And Vettel's penalty is bull something or other. It was totally 50/50. Looking forward to seeing the stewards video on that one.

Re: Rate The Australian Grand Prix

Kubica! Why? Driving without KERS and new fast diffuser and he manage to fight so well. And he fierce fight to the end!!
Buemi - 2 points in debut in F1!
2 - Best Team
Brawn GP
3 - Best Overtake
Many
4 - Best Moment
Super fast Kubica after first pit, and closing to Vettel & Button after second pit.
5 - Worst Driver
Jarno Trulli - overtaking Hamilton during a safety car period. He was mindless.
6- Worst Team
Ferrari, no doubt.
7 - Biggest Surprise
Hamilton on 3th, Buemi scores, Vettel crash Kubica.
8 - General Comment
Great race, what a pity that Kubica crash. Maybe he would overtake Button on last lap, and that would be a 10/10 race! Without that, IMO 9/10. Great start of 2009 season.

2 - Best Team : Brawn GP!
3 - Best Overtake : Hamilton on a Force India ( Sutil I believe )
4 - Best Moment : The end of the race with Kubica closing Vettel and Button
5 - Worst Driver : Bourdais... he was nowhere and Sutil, just because he manage to go off the track in the installation lap
6- Worst Team : maybe Ferrari ?
7 - Biggest Surprise : Hamilton 4th ( then 3rd with Trulli DQ )
8 - General Comment
It was a nice race, lot of nice overtaking manoeuvre. Brawn GP was fantastic but not so dominant as I thought before. The Kubica/Vettel incident is really a shame, both deserved a podium position, even a win for Kubica!

Re: Rate The Australian Grand Prix
1. - Best Driver
Shared.
Hamilton for driving a flawless race from the bottom of the grid in a car that isn't one of the best. Keep it up Lewis, if you do I might actually start to like you.
Kubica for despite a ton of problems in practice being there when it counted, while his teammate was nowhere. Perfect tyre management. Would have won the race if it wasn't for the collision with Vettel, Button's tyres were totally shot.
Button? OK, honorary mention, but winning in the best car from pole isn't THAT difficult. However, all congrats to him, he deserves all the success in the world after all the trouble he's had, trouble he's endured without a word of complaining. Kudos.
2 - Best Team
Brawn. By a mile. No one else even comes close. Apparantly also build very sturdy cars, or Rubens wouldn't have finished at all.
3 - Best Overtake
Alonso on Glock. Hard fought in a car that was in reality slower than the Toyota.
4 - Best Moment
When I realized Kubica had a chance to challenge for the win. Didn't last long though.
5 - Worst Driver
Kimi for being asleep once again. I can take such antics as crashing unprovoked from the likes of Nakajima and Piquet, but not from a guy who calls himself world champion. Podium gone. Can't anybody wake him up?
Rubens for making a mess of most things despite being in the best car and who was VERY lucky to finish second.
6- Worst Team
Ferrrari. I expect more from a top team like Ferrari. Reliability is bad, one of the drivers is bad - Massa at least does his best always even if he gets screwed by strategy, fuel hoses and/or reliability.
Toyota for entering an illegal car. I don't think it was deliberate, but it ruined their drivers chances to be fighting for the win.
7 - Biggest Surprise
Buemi. I thought he'd struggle a bit,after all he's hardly driven a F1 car before, but he did a brilliant job. Not to mention he beats his famous more experienced teammate from day 1.
8 - General Comment
Well, I wasn't bored so I guess it was a good race...
Greatest thanks should really go to Bridgestone, by providing chewing gum tyres for the race they really spiced things up!
