Same as Minardi and the other perrenial backmarkers.

That said, I don't think either incident was Karth's fault, as much of a failure as he is. Button took responsibility for that incident and, if you watch it again, Vettel cut across his car pretty hard for no real reason.

Are they only paying Grosjean for quali? Cause every race for him is like 2 laps.


He's effectively giving himself a raise, in terms of hourly rate.

I think both weren't his fault, but because the car is so shit it kinda was if that makes sense. He also got a penalty for the Vettel incident somehow.

Minardi was at least useful for giving upcoming drivers a chance to show their stuff, but when was the last time something good came from them? Webber in 2002 I think. I mean if you look at PDLR and NK pairing...what's the point? One is over 40 and the other is only there because of money like he was last year and back in 2005.

Jaime Alguesuari on Five Live: "I'm a big fan of the gravel."

Martin Brundle: "It's starting to rain now, so we're probably going to have a wet start to the race"
Button: "Really? You think the rain is that imminent...?"

Martin Brundle on Lap 19: "Remember, DRS is still disenabled. Disabled. Not allowed."

Sebastian Vettel talking about Narain Kathikeyan: "It's like on the normal roads you have idiots driving around. And today you had one here."

Sergio Perez: "I was calling God to help me keep the car on track."

Jean-Eric Vergne talking about sticking with Inters; "I had the Inters and I didn't know where we were going with it. I was getting oversteer in a straight line."

Sebastian Vettel's engineer 'Rocky' on the penultimate lap: "Box, box, box - we're going to retire the car, we're going to retire the car, we're going to retire the car."

Sebastian Vettel's engineer 'Rocky': "Stay out, stay out, stay out, stay out, stay out!"

Sebastian Vettel's engineer 'Rocky': "Stop the car! Stop the car! Emergency

I have an extra 30 minutes added to all F1 stuff, and I still had to wait for the afternoon re-play to see the final 10 laps.

I ALWAYS add another hour at least into every F1 race I record, I plan on it going over every time.

I don't agree with the penalty in the Vettel incident at all. It wasn't like Seb was even tracking out from the corner, he cut across violently as if to prove a point that he was faster, cutting his own tire down in the process. I found it pretty fitting that he screwed himself while being a dickhead, and even more so when he got all pissy in the post-race. His in-car hissy fits whenever someone doesn't LEAP out of his way is becoming telling.

Minardi was at least useful for giving upcoming drivers a chance to show their stuff, but when was the last time something good came from them? Webber in 2002 I think. I mean if you look at PDLR and NK pairing...what's the point? One is over 40 and the other is only there because of money like he was last year and back in 2005.


PDLR is pretty well known for car development and NK is paying the bills.

Necessary evil if they're going to make a car worthwhile at some point to have a development driver and some how to pay for said developments.

What are they developing though and when are we going to see it? They've not had a car to test in winter yet and have missed the first race twice now. I just don't see them going anywhere.

New ownership for this year, give them some sort of chance. Everyone gets mad about HRT, but Virgin/Marussa hasn't shown terribly much of their own progress either.

Because HRT is 2 seconds slower than even Marussia who can at least afford to pay one of its drivers.
