It's takes a post like that to make me realize how much this year's conversations have been lacking in white bitches, stolen TVs, crack, watermelon, KFC, jessie jackson representing king lewis at FIA hearings, and an occasional shoopdawhoop/kimi don't know 'bout my lazrs.

I mean, come on, we've been meaner to Shi about his azn driving.

I prefer it that way, personally.

If i wanted to read about F1 on a forum where people pop in with that fucking garbage and think it's comedy gold, i'd talk about F1 on OT with Alky and the rest of the rejects.

Toyota's departing F1 team manager Richard Cregan is to join the management team of the new Abu Dhabi Grand Prix from early next year, it was announced on Wednesday.

Elsewhere, it is expected that Toro Rosso refugee Scott Speed will continue his meteoric rise through the NASCAR ranks by joining Red Bull's Sprint Cup team next year.

The speculation follows the team's confirmation this week that his American countryman AJ Allmendinger will not return to the wheel of the no.84 car in 2009.

Speed, 25, is due to test the car this week.

Ferrari is making a mistake by allowing Kimi Raikkonen to keep fighting for the 2008 title, according to former World Champion Emerson Fittipaldi.

The Brazilian, who won two drivers' titles in the early 70s, believes the Finnish reigning World Champion should fall in line behind teammate Felipe Massa rather than try to bridge his 21-point gap to the championship lead.

"Sometimes Kimi takes points off Felipe and sometimes the other way round," the 61-year-old told The Sun.

Fittipaldi believes McLaren lost last year's championship by adopting a similar policy of driver parity with teammates Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso.

"It's the mistake McLaren made last year with Lewis and Fernando Alonso," he confirmed.

World Champion Raikkonen, who is 20 and 21 points respectively behind Massa and Hamilton with four races to go, said as recently as this week that he will continue to fight for his own championship so long as he can still theoretically win it.

"Only when I no longer have a mathematical chance will I be totally at the service of the team," he is quoted as saying by Motorsport Aktuell.

Fittipaldi, meanwhile, believes neither of F1's championship contenders is the best driver in the 2008 field.

"Fernando is the most complete driver because he is experienced, knows how to set up a car and is doing incredible things with a difficult Renault," he said.

"He showed in the first race in Australia, and then again at Spa, that he is still capable of driving a Grand Prix car faster than anyone."

i get what he's saying... and i do agree Kimi should just help massa out a this point... 21 points is a lot to ask

Felipe Massa has earmarked qualifying for this weekend's inaugural Singapore Grand Prix as a crucial element to his championship challenge.

The Ferrari driver, who trails McLaren's Lewis Hamilton by a single point with four races to go, thinks overtaking will be even more difficult on the twisty floodlit city circuit than it was at Valencia last month.

Valencia's European Grand Prix, staged on a faster urban circuit than Singapore, was slammed as a processional race that lacked overtaking moves.

"Saturday will be very important, for sure," Massa, 27, told the local Straits Times newspaper on Wednesday, highlighting the importance of a good grid position.

"I've never driven on the Singapore track but it'll be even more difficult to overtake compared to Valencia, because the straights are even shorter," the Brazilian added.

F1 veteran David Coulthard backs Massa's views about the Singapore layout.

"It appears to be less flowing than Valencia and more of a classic street track, with lots of 90-degree block changes, albeit a relatively wide one in most parts," the Red Bull driver said.

I think that is just a way for Kimi to save face really. I would be very surprised if he doesn't support Massa from here on. He also must remember Massa doing the same for him last year, he wouldn't have won the title without his help.

This has probably already been posted.

Sep.23 (GMM) Lewis Hamilton spent the whole of Monday sitting through the McLaren appeal in Paris, facing a full hour of cross-examination from FIA and Ferrari lawyers.

The British championship leader, who had his Belgian grand prix victory controversially stripped by stewards, made it clear he is as unprepared to shy away from a tussle in a courtroom as he was on the Spa-Francorchamps tarmac earlier this month.

"I said what was on my mind as I was being talked down to, but by no means am I an idiot," the 23-year-old explained afterwards, before setting off to catch a flight to Singapore.

"I had a right to my opinion," Hamilton added, when asked about the manner in which he responded to Ferrari QC Nigel Tozzi's line of questioning.

Answering one of Tozzi's questions, Hamilton had said: "Are you a racing driver? No. I have been a racing driver since I was eight years old and I know pretty much every single manoeuvre in the book, and that's why I'm the best at my job.

"We're talking about a skilled driver under intense pressure making a split-second decision which no one, unless they are in F1, can comprehend," he added.

When Tozzi suggested that Hamilton should not "personalise" Ferrari's argument, the McLaren driver answered: "I beg to differ."

Could Hamilton sound any more like a douchebag? He needs to turn down the pretentious bullshit a notch or two.

brundle and coulthard for BBC's coverage commentary next year

Martin Brundle and David Coulthard will form part of the broadcast team when the BBC takes over F1 coverage from ITV next season, Pitpass has learned..

The main team will consist of Brundle, Coulthard, Jonathan Legard, Lee McKenzie, daughter of Daily Express F1 journalist Bob McKenzie and currently covering A1GP for Sky Sports, and Jake Humphrey, the youngest ever presenter to host Football Focus and Match of the Day and who has also enjoyed stints on both CBBC at The Fame Academy and BAMZOOKi.

While we understand that McKenzie will work in the pits and Legard will form the commentary team along with Brundle, McKenzie and Brundle will film the majority of the features to be used in pre-event build-up.

With the budget said to be even less than ITV is spending - come on, how do you think the BBC finances garbage like Bonekickers, Hole in the Wall and Eastenders - it is believed that Humphrey will be based in a London studio - much like Sky's A1GP coverage - along with Coulthard, though this has yet to be finalised.

With Coulthard also fulfilling a consultancy role with Red Bull, and having a keen, non-PC, sense of humour, the BBC would be best advised to have the Scotsman on site haranguing his former rivals.

Reigning World Champion Kimi Raikkonen on Sunday admitted that his hopes of defending the title in 2008 are now over.

The Finn recorded yet another failure to score points at F1's first race under the lights, crashing out of fifth place after clipping the Singapore street circuit's now notorious turn 10 kerbs.

"My situation in the championship was already rather compromised, so this doesn't really make that much difference," Raikkonen said.

The DNF means he is now 27 points behind McLaren driver Lewis Hamilton's championship lead with three races to go.

Mathematically, Raikkonen's title chance is not quite dashed, but he told reporters in Singapore that he is "out of the championship" now.

"It was a pretty small chance (before the race) anyhow," he added.
