what's considered a timely manner? i don't know how long encoding the files take after airing, but that might be a factor for the delay.

One of my favorite drivers who will most likely never win a WC but still to me will be one of the greatest of all time...

Mark Webber is the new Rubens Barrichello. want to win a championship? have him as your teammate.

Mark seems like a great guy, i'll have a pint with him.

After watching this interview, it gives me a sense that the FIA is relaxed with safety in F1. Perhaps they feel the sport is so safe now to the point where things can be overlooked, but motorsports is dangerous.

Definitely disagree. Take launch control away from Rubens, and he still performs well.

Take launch control away from Mark, he is paralyzed!

Had Rubens have some luck, he would have been a world champion. As for Mark, he just needs to stop kicking in anti-win at starts. And what I meant by Mark being the new Rubens is that Mark is the new best #2 driver.

I think Massa is the best #2. Now he's fast again, still helping Alonso

Gotta feel bad for Webber, one minute he's the 'superstar to be' waiting for a top car to show his true ability, then the wonder kid Vettel joins RB and destroys him, winning 3 back to back titles in the same car. Must suck.

This season it does look like Massa is the best #2. I have a feeling Rosberg is going to take that title in years to come.
