Sutil giving advices to schumacher on how to drive an F1 car

Sutil: "It may sound funny, but Michael has to learn how to drive an F1 car again. Above all, the tyres are extremely sensitive. This is totally underestimated. In order to use them fully, he just needs more experience."

i think that schumi even in his wildest dreams tought that this is never gona happen

yeah, we have yet to see a great dry race performance from mclaren......maybe barcelona?

mclaren's top speed advantage wasn't apparent on the chinese round.....maybe they used more wing/downforce as they have a straight line speed weapon anyway.

thats the best way to go about it IMO

[megasyxx]

maybe they should stall the front wing as well, and also the diffuser-if applicable

Martin Brundle has revealed that he would push for harsher decisions and penalties if he was a Formula One steward.

So far in 2010, to give additional credibility to the officials' adjudications, experienced former drivers including Alain Prost, Johnny Herbert and Alex Wurz have acted as stewards at grands prix.

But although Brundle argues that the "brutal and sometimes unfathomable penalties" of the recent past have now been eradicated, he thinks the stewards are now being too lenient.

The former McLaren driver, a full-time commentator for British television since retiring in 1996, wrote in his BBC column that Sebastian Vettel and Lewis Hamilton should have been penalised for their pitlane stoush in China.

"They both received a reprimand, but what does that mean? How long does a reprimand last and how many are you allowed to collect before a real penalty?" said Brundle.

"They are lucky I wasn't the resident driver steward for the weekend because I would have strongly recommended dropping them both some penalty places on the grid for the next race in Barcelona.

"The decision taken has set a very dangerous precedent," he charged.

Brundle also said race winner Jenson Button deserved a penalty for unduly slowing behind the safety car prior to a race restart.

"I wouldn't have been a popular steward with my former McLaren team but that job is not a popularity contest. Ask any referee," said the Briton.

3-4 teams are only genuinely competing for wins when it's wet.

Vettel deserved a penalty. He was preremained for passing Trulli under yellows in Sepang and clearly pushed Lewis towards the pits in China. Stupid driving by the young lad.
Jenson was almost braking to a standstill before the restart. c**p driving. We had it before in Fuji in 2007, but I think this one was even worse. People didn´t know where to go in the pack and Lewis and one or two others actually had to move off track to avoid a massive pileup.

i think jenson forgot to move his knee......then stepped on the brake when he should have stepped on the gas

OMG! I just read an article stating Hamilton already overtook 32 cars this season, he only overtook 2 or so in Bahrein, which means he has done about 30 in 3 races. Sick!
