Celebrating Five Glorious Years of Heikki Kovalainen: Formula 1 in 2012

Well, that goes without saying.

Vergne will be feeling that in the morning. My tailbone hurts just watching that.

lewis hamilton's tag-heuer advert: "let me tell you a story." the story appears to be:

• some dudes made some watches
• time passes, they're still making watches
• lewis hamilton is a (former) world champion

he really could tweet that, you know

Alonso is pushing just a wee bit

DALEKS IN THE SAUBER GARAGE???

Finally they punish Vettel for driving like a twat.

poor Button. :(

hahaha yes

Back to regular service for JB.

(laughing at Sebby V btw)

Hey, remember Ferrari Team Orders?

good thing it's legal now.

lol 4ever if Perez can get up to Massa

lololololoooooool

Perez on fire!

where on earth has this come from

He waited forever to change tires, which is a huge part of it.

Remember both Sauber's were fast in qualifying at Spa but got cleared out in that first corner.

hahahaha Seb.

SAVE THE ENGINE

Nice to tell him right after the pit entrance.

RIP Formula 1's Doctor and Fly Fishing Expert, Prof Sid Watkins: http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/102485

This is rather good read btw: http://www.motorsportmagazine.com/2012/09/13/lunch-with-professor-sid-watkins/

Thanks for the Motorsport Watkins piece!

Have to say I am psyched for Austin

The weather forecast suggests that rain might fall during the race on Sunday night.

Better stock up on Magnums and pagodas.

ok just got my hands on F1 2012 xbox game. first impression: these cars are hard to drive, no wonder pastor and roman are always stacking into people through the first turn. I am having a steeper learning curve trying to get my F1 mojo back (last competitive season: F1 97 on playstation!) than schumacher has probably had during his comeback. DRS and KERS are kinda hilariously appropriate for a game though.

second impression: the heavy rain effect is terrifying tbh.

third impression: lol dadrock soundtrack.

ladies and gentlemen, charles pic!

"community service", lololol

you want craziness, try playing F1 2012 on an iPhone (xp)

!!! FLAVIO BRIATORE TO STAR IN THE ITALIAN VERSION OF "THE APPRENTICE" !!!

Flav naturally wears sunglasses in the boardroom: http://theapprentice.cielotv.it/

would watch

haha pastor, jesus!

he will never die wondering, that's for sure.

If I was in a Williams, I'd do crazy shit like that too.

Let me tell you a story about a gearbox...

I'm not a Hamilton fan but that's still a shame.

Yes, because that really helps Alonso.

I was more annoyed that it puts Vettel in the lead. He's the only driver I dislike more than Lewis.

HISTORY REPEATS

Schumacher out of control. Again.

incidentally, how good would button running up vettel's arse under safety have been?

CRAZY OLD MAN??!?

massa asserting himself as the true south american wild man there

I thought Massa was going to cause a helluva mess there.

He was attempting Pastorality

If you like Lewis Hamilton's Twitter, then good news for you in 2013: he'll be tweeting a lot more from back in the midfield.

Also: Sergio Perez is set to become a) the Mexican Senna or b) the Mexican Kovalainen.

And here's an exclusive sneak preview of Michael Schumacher's car for next season:

I keep singing "pastor maldonado left-hand side" to the tune of "pass the dutchie" every time his name is mentioned, I'm really starting to annoy myself.

Schumacher will land at Sauber and have one final glorious season. Mark my words.
