They'd be silly to get rid of him, but Ferrari is notorious for punishing any public lack of confidence in their equipment.

I hope he wins in Austin with Vettel third, to tie the championship up and send them to Brazil with some real drama.

 

Good to see another Webber fan around here. I think he gets frustrated when obviously slower cars hold him up, because frankly, he's generally not one to aggressively block others. I think in many cases, he is one of the easiest of the "front runners" to pass.

 

it's called at the start.... lights go off... cars move... then webber finds 1st gear....



on a side note...i can't stop getting this thought out of my head (and apparently I'm not the only one)

Vettel.... goes to the softs on a green pit stop... he's the only one of the front runners with the softs on but too far away from everyone...


and then conveniently, here comes the Webber and co. fiasco... and then the SC comes out to bunch the field...



Nelson Piquet Jr... you got some thoughts on this?

 

that is convenient but when racing at that speed would anyone take that risk? I would hope no. and yes MW is HORRIBLE on starts haha

 

And remember, it was Grossburger that turned into webber. Webber would have been totally clear of that mess. It was his rear wheel that Grossburger hit

 

idk, I kinda think that Webber forced the issue when he shouldn't have -- he'd been driving like a prick all day and it finally bit him. I think Hobbes said, "Gentlemen, you can't race three-wide through there..." just before he got grossbergered.


Three incidents he was involved in on the day? That's too many.


Not MW bashing, just sayin'. Typically I like his style a lot. And he's awesome on twitter -- let's be honest, that's really the important thing here.

 

Webber annoyed me when he forced Massa to spin out, that was a crappy move, he shouldn't come back on the track the way he did.


I don't mind MW at all, I'm sure it's no fun playing 2nd fiddle to Vettel.

 

I'm sure all those guys want to win all the time, or they wouldn't be where they are. However, Vettel doesn't seem like too much of an arse; and at least if you're second on that team, you have a decent chance to win some races.

 

This just in; new red bull strategy. In order to get better top speed in a straight line (only thing the cars lack), they are testing a new 8th gear for top speed in Webbers car only. In order to make that gear fit in the current transmission case, they have removed first gear. Team figures Webber won't notice

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I've liked Weber for a long time. I even remember his second place starting grid spot with Jaguar in Singapore? back in the day, but he always butchers something in the race. He's a great bloke though.
