Seems to me that Webber has lost some agression in his driving, 3 x 4th places so far is OK, but he needs to show more. He seems quiet underwieght maybe he is lacking some stamina.
It's actually 4 x 4th places from 4 races, if he maintains that with the current points system and a different winner each race he could take the Championship

It is not racing when the winner is who can control the wear on his tires the best
It is 2012 you would think they could make a tire that could last 50 - 70 laps
Sorry, I used to enjoy the sport, but now it is like watching a parade, not much

You obviously do not keep up with F1 as tire wear and degradation it part of the formula. So much so that Pirelli was instructed by F1 to create tires that did degrade.
F1 is more competitive today that in many decades, with more overtaking and strategy that in the 30+ I've been following the sport. Perhaps you've just tuned back into F1 after the Shumacher dynasty at Ferrari.
Four races this season. Four separate winners by four separate teams. Doesn't get more competitive than that.

I don't think a comment like that would go down too well in todays over sensitive world of political correctness, especially with todays grid line up it seems that we should take the words and inspect their meanings before we utter them in case we unintentionally offend someone or perhaps say nothing.

I think the marshall was advising(telling) Alonso to put the steering wheel back on, which as Alonso knows the regs is what pissed him off, if it had been a now deaceased champion from another era the marshall may well have ended up sporting the dearest teeth brace on earth.

Having watched that clip I was wondering if that was all there was to it or if there was some more, seems as though the marshall may well have been asking Fernando if he was ok and being somewhat peed off with his mistake was unnecessarily rude but he could have redeemed himself if he had sought the man out afterwards and apologised for being so rude, he makes no friends with that type of attitude but he of course is not alone in losing his rag but nevertheless still poor sportsmanship.
Massa, now there is a sad story, I do not believe that a driver of his ability as shown by missing out on the WDC. by a couple of points has really lost his skills, prior to his head trauma he was up there with the very best.
Having a serious crash may well dent ones confidence when you accept it was your own mistake but his accident was not his fault. My own view is that it is the mental frustration of knowing he has had to play second fiddle for most of his career at Ferrari and that has been eating away at him and his subconcious mind and perhaps he has been wound up too tightly and cannot relax knowing that he has never, apart from one year had an equal opportunity to excel.
Let us take last seasons performance or lack of it with his frequent coming together with Lewis and I am not apportioning blame here but look at Lewis last season, he hardly covered himself in glory and most people believe it was purely down to the state of his mind over numerous personal issues, he certainly had more bumps and scrapes than he has ever had in any previous season and yet no one wrote him off, including me, and this year it would appear that he has emptied his head of the rubbish and knuckled down to it this season. I think getting beaten by Jenson and having to face up to reality is exactly what he needed to get back on track.
I for one would be really disappointed if Ferrari ditch him, sort his head out, do away with their blatant team orders and let him race on equal terms with Fernando, I am not saying that he would beat him on a level playing field but most of Lewis supporters believe he is a better driver than Jenson, he is not, faster yes but he is not the complete package unlike Jenson, Jenson has a very relaxed persona that will always stand him in good stead and has frequently beaten Lewis and I believe Massa is still capable of performing at the very top if he can only clear the frustration and the conspiracy theory that he is being used only to bolster the number one driver, I actually do believe that he has always been the sacrifial lamb for the number one.
Just a thought.

Unfortunately I have not seen either of the two races so far, only snippets so I will refrain from passing comment on what I did not see.
My reference re; Lewis facial expressions was not a direct question regarding his character but his apparent inability to view a race as a one off event and forget it and move on, it seems he is in my view carrying a lot of mental baggage to the next race. In my opinion once the race is over it is done and dusted, this is a series of races and is therefor a one off event, not a serial of races where you need to have seen the previous one to be able to follow the sequal, Jenson seems a little more adept at dismissing the previous in response to the future race and seems more at ease within himself. There is no doubt that Lewis has a prodigual talent but at this moment in his career is not the complete package but may well become just that if he can just accept he really is not going to win every race. His own expectations and his often failings and frustrations in my opinion are what is really holding him back, perhaps he should not view things in such a serious light. These are of course my own views and others will not agree I'm sure.
Fernando in my view was totally wrong if he did indeed take his frustrations out on any innocent party, if there had been any provocation then that would perhaps have been a different kettle of fish.
Malaysia, hmmmm, people airing their personal views on Perez performance is what this forum is about, undoubtedly a good performance but with his past history not being particuly impressive I think it was a one off and due entirely to the conditions and sequence of events and is unlikely to be repeated anytime soon, although a talent to be nurtured, not a talent at this stage of his career to take the number 2 seat at Ferrari, and staying where he is may well be of greater benefit in respect of gaining valuable experience as opposed to being expected to be an instant front runner at Maranello.

They should either move when the race is held, or at least the timing. I do not enjoy a; cars parading around behind the safety car and/or b; using the gid as a car park. Wet races are one thing, but a deluge is another.

It was certainly an odd race - and we still have little idea of the true performance of the teams under normal conditions.
As far as I could see, doing well or badly depended largely on luck and/or strategy with only a small element down to the driver? (The cars' performance as a factpr goes without saying.)
I say this as, despite the conditions, few drivers wrecked their own race (only Button and Grosjean spring to mind), and nobody produced a stunning drive with lots of overtaking - apart from possibly Senna who managed to overtake a few cars.
Normally wet races provide odd results, but there is usually more overtaking involved.
Finally, after the re-start, I think the safety car stayed out to long as it seems ridiculous that cars immediately rushed into the pits to change to intermediates! I understand the safety issues, but even so....
Having said this, it was a pleasure to see Perez and Alonso do so well in cars that are definitely not expected front-runners!
Incidentally Steve Slater was really getting on my nerves this race, unlike Karun whose commentary I enjoyed.

I know we only sing when we're winning, but 12-10 against a South Seas Islands team of any colour is a great result
http://www.irbsevens...resresults.html
for Scotland, anyway, and a tremendous result for the Canadians over Argentina and Russia over Kenya
Some real upsets already
I'm imagining I am there, and later I intend to flush my wallet down the toilet and wake up naked in a public park.
Sevens weekend in HK, eh?

eh? what, officer?

AND ANOTHER THING!
Has anyone else noticed that the IRB Scotland Sevens has been moved to Scotstoun (capacity 5,000) - OFFS!
Where are the spectators going to sit? That'll be scarcely enough for the teams' friends and family!
Its nice to have the Scotstoun Stadium, where they take rugby seriously, and its a great venue for the League internationals, and probably a good venue for Glasgow Warriors, if they can't stay at Firhill, but for the IRB World Series? 5,000 capacity? Or will they be putting up temporary stands, like Dubai?
I doubt there's anyone from the SRFU follows this thread, but you never know - even dinosaurs need a holiday from time to time...

i was going to compliment you all on the lack of petty fanboyism here thus far, then i read on.
As for Hamilton, l thought the drive was ok, but his reaction seemed to lack character. he just doesnt seem to have mental strength.
Our personal likes and dislikes are what make F1 interesting to us, why would we leave them at the door?

I have always been a big advocate of Jenson as a complete driver which is what it takes, not just an ability to drive fast but the ability to finish the race and take care of the car.
Lewis is undoubtably fast but that is not enough and I certainly would not write him off but last seasons performance and the look on his face at the press conference for me says it all, the man cannot handle the stress when things are not going his way and compared to Jenson adds very little to the team in regards to feed back.
Talking a good fight is one thing but what counts is the delivery and no delivery knocks the confidence whereas if you deliver we know that gives one a massive boost.
I really would like to see Lewis do well simply because he is British, as a person I have stated on previous posts in seasons past that I do not like him and that is not about to change anytime soon.
My feelings are that starting his career in a top car gave him a false reading of what to expect from his undoubted talents and not winning has dented that confidence. He may have benefited from a season or two in a lower team but Ron probably made him feel that he was unbeatable and he isn't and that has done him no favours.
