The shifter will, the guy who used to use it was 6'1 and well over 240lbs. We modified the frame to flex with his weight so it ended up being as nimble. When I drive that cart, it sits too high because I can't put the proper weight down on it.

Jourdan hasn't mastered that skill. He's still an amateur.

There was a live event. No time for any shenanigans.

I hope Webber out qualifies Vettel and then he takes him out at the first corner. Not only for this race, but the rest of the races this year.

Great race!

**** Pirelli... Man I hate that tire company.

Mercedes is so much better since their private test. FIA ****ed up hard by not punishing them.

Very exciting race. I really wanted Webber to win and for Kimi to hold on to his 3rd place spot. Oh well, at least Vettel wasnt on the podium.

Pirelli called to appear before F1's Sporting Committee after tyre failures in British GP | Mercedes GP Petronas F1 News | Formula 1 Teams | Sky Sports


I am left amused with all the blame of this sorry mess being laid at Pirelli. It was Bernie Eccleston and the FIA who asked Pirelli to produce these cheap quality tyres in order to "spice up the show"; and as it is all turning ugly they are nowhere to be seen

Oh I hate them too... But pirelli just doesn't do race tires well. They failed Subaru hard in the 2000s in WRC when Michelins were just too good.

One hell of a race... Probably one of the most exciting races I've seen. **** those tires though.

I can only imagine that you have a RedBull/Vettel shrine around your TV.
