The Sauber team did a superb job all weekend.
My congratulations to them!

LOL...too bad they were disqualified.

The nature of that rules infraction has nothing to do with their car's performance. Their car is well designed. That was my point.
Re: SoCal smack-down?
I'm going to be down LA/OC way end of April and I got to thinking.
:redface: Since the new season is off to a wild unpredictable frothy start, how about we all get together for a F-1 rules/teams/drivers/etc./etc. round table no holds barred "discussion". Got Jack, Rebel, myhui, Miner, CKS (and who else?) all in the Republic of SoCal, so why not?
Might have to have a couple of rules: no shivs, no pistolas, no mouthy GF and a 2 drink maximum? :biggrin:
Yeah, I know what you're thinking,
but hey............Bernie would love it. :tongue:

I'd be in, but I'm off fighting terrorist, Qadafi, looking for WMD's, Osama, UFOs/Aliens, killing babies, making babies, and searching for the secret on how to make a woman orgasm. :biggrin:
Oh, and no pistolas, no thank you sir. :wink:

Re: Good luck with that
If and when you discover the secret, be sure and post it as a sticky in the DIY forum. :biggrin: The 20 YO NSX isn't cutting it anymore. :redface:
Re: Good luck with that
Sure I'm in on the meet, but I may drift into listen-only mode most of the time.
I am going to Formula Drift next weekend at Long Beach for the first time in my life, just to see how the pros do it. I bought the $100 VIP ticket, figuring it'll be the first and last time I attend such an event. They now hold it one week prior to Indycar's Long Beach Grand Prix.
Good golly ... you gents are performance oriented in everything you do! On epicski.com, the standard phrase is "gotta find my G spot on these skis." Hint ...

Re: Good luck with that
I'm in for now. Just don't know the family schedule when this happens.

Same here.
I volunteer my brother's house in South Orange County. I'm sure he and his wife won't mind.:biggrin:

Of course my question is: who decided that Sauber gained absolutely no advantage? How can they know?
Yeah, that's a bummer. Well you could pontificate about the spirit of the rules vs strict application of the rules:

Re: Gray areas.... frustrating
oh well, we'll find out if there was even an advantage in a week. Wouldn't it be sweet if one of the Sauber boys gets on podium! :biggrin:

Re: Gray areas.... frustrating
I certainly hope so too. A team from Switzerland. Imagine that! I would love to cheer for a Swiss team. They carry less historical baggage than a German team.
This is what Ferrari power done right looks like.
Guys did you seen weather prediction for race?:biggrin:
yes, hurricanes all weekend long, or is it typhoons.
:biggrin:Here's to a Sauber/Perez podium! :wink:
Re: Geez, will that Bernie stop at nothing.....
Well, OTOH, we got to keep Red Bull contained somewhat this early in the season. :wink:
to keep everyone off balance and confused?

Re: Picks?
Anyone care to air their picks? Looks like all these guys are not expecting really crazy weather.
Well, even normal rain is crazy enough to upset the grid. Remember 2 years ago when they barely got 1/2 way? Might as well try to predict the Green jacket winner.

Great race for Jenson. Damn you Alonso you douche for messing up Lewis. Both McLaren drivers are on my Fantasy F1 team and I could have really used those points if they had finished 2 & 3.
