How many Formula 1 fans does EVE have?

Let's talk the German Grand Prix.

Who's fault was the turn 1 crash?
Will it rain?
Will Hamilton/Ricciardo crash trying to move up through the field?
Will the race director linger on crowd shots instead of interesting battles on the track?

This is suspense! This is drama! This is FORMULA 1.

WOW, good stuff so far. Hamilton, Raikkonnen, and Ricciardo all go three-wide and Hamilton runs into Raikkonnen and passes them both. Can't tell if ballsy or stupid...

I used to watch Formula 1, then got bored. P Sorry!


So I'm posting just to say you're such a fun person. I hereby declare you the most glompable person of New Eden.


I also have a question for your Q&A time with Kaaeliaa:

Kaaeliaa, is life just a dream?

I just listened to the earlier portion of GP on the radio. I think the sportscaster was saying that Magnusen should have noticed he'd be in Massa's blind spot right at the turn and should have slowed down, but given Massa has more experience he should have been aware of what's just past his peripheral vision. I think blaming Magnusen makes Massa look unprofessional.

I haven't caught up fully yet, but weren't Friday and Saturday pretty clear?

Didn't hear about Hamilton/Ricciardo crash (was that in qualifying, pre-race, or the actual GP?) but Vettel isn't doing as badly as I imagined..

At least seeing this crowd is better than the crying kid during Germany vs. Brazil. But I haven't watched through it yet.


My Q&A addition: Kaae, how do we reverse entropy?

Decent Race, Massa might have been caught off with Bottas in the middle of them, but really should have taken the outside line on the 1st corner. I really thought there was going to be more damage than just the end plate of kimi's front wing coming off. Was Glas to see that Bottas made it onto the podium, and depending on Merc's luck this year the might be able to get a race win, cant really see Massa doing to much more on the track than let them race and have some support for Bottas, always the bridesmaid.

Alonso Deserves a much better car than whats he's got, but Cant really see where he would end up if he did leave Ferrari, but I can see their next driver being Jules Bianchi, when the time does come.
