Oh, and super :wtc: @ all the spins mid-race when the rain was really coming down. I'm shocked no one else went to full wets when Woobens was cutting his way up the pack like that.

Q. Rubens Barrichello and a wet Silverstone seem to go well together!

RB: Well, 2003 was actually dry but I think the wet and myself… there's no specific reason. To be honest, I wasn't good in the wet in my very first race. I wasn't at all good in go-kart and I remember the strategy was that the next time it was wet at Interlagos with a go-kart, to take slicks and go learn in the wet. That's what I did for half a day and then when I put on the wets, I was a master, it was unbelievable.

LH: What year was that?

RB: Oh man, don't ask me the year because you were definitely not born. It was '82! You see, I'm still young. I love the wet and I think it's just the spirit. When some people look at situations where they don't like it - it doesn't matter what – it's already bad, it's already a negative influence. You have to take it as it comes. Today it was obviously very difficult at the beginning with the visibility, coming from behind. There was a moment I touched the white line and I spun.

Negative G testing for NASA



Seriously, it makes you fucking wonder why there is so much money in F1 and its filled with dumbcunts. 1 person goes onto heavy wets and Ross Brawn is made out like the 2nd coming of Christ because of the decision. I could have told you from the other side of the world that the track was glistening like Patrick Ewing in the 4th quarter and you needed heavy wets.

Oh look blue sky is coming, put on slicks before the sun gets here!!

Reigning World Champion Kimi Raikkonen was photographed and filmed pushing over a renowned Formula One photographer on the Silverstone grid prior to Sunday's British Grand Prix.

According to the Finnish television station MTV3, the Ferrari driver - taking off his helmet after driving to the grid - was infuriated when Frenchman Paul-Henri Cahier got too close before stepping on his equipment to take his photo.

"Photographers should respect the fact that Kimi is about to race and not get too close," Raikkonen's manager Steve Robertson reportedly said.

It is understood that Cahier does not intend to take any action against Raikkonen, 28.
