Pascal Wehrlein

Here's a little more about Pascal and his achievements to date.

Pascal Wehrlein: Just how good is Mercedes’ new star?

Girlie comment - he is rather easy on the eye.

 

[Hamberg]

If that's what you're into

 

[Westy]

That fact about him winning at least one race every year is about to end.

[Il_leone]

there is another thread on him already

Firstly RasputinLives pointed out DTM champions and drivers who moved into F1 from the series do not have good record.

the most successful driver out from the DTM series was Fisichella with 3 wins over 13 years in F1. So the question is if the series does help groom future F1 stars or not like the same way GP2 or World Series 3.5 does?

 

[racecub]

Is there? A thread? Sorry. My bad. I did a search in the drivers action and nothing came up.

 

[Il_leone]

RasputinLives put a thread up

 

[racecub]

Oh yes, I see it now. But I think he started it after this one if you check the time. I did do a search first and there wasn't one.
Maybe somebody could combine them?

 

[Hamberg]

The other one is a very thorough post rather than a link and a few pictures. No need to merge, genuine racing orientated posts should go on Ras's post which is a very good kick off.

 

[racecub]

It's an excellent post by Rasputin, but a thread already existed, so best to merge them, it's silly to have two threads about the same driver.

 

[Hamberg]

Scrap this, post on ras. Simples.

 

[racecub]

That would be silly since this one was started a whole day earlier and people have commented, replied and liked posts. Merging is what happens in these cases not thread deletion.
Now...can we get back to discussing Wehrlein?

I personally hope Rossi becomes his partner since he's rated pretty well from his races last year, so that would be a good benchmark for Wehrlein.
He's had seven full days testing for Merc and Force India where he performed well and consistently. So he's not going to be completely new to F1.

 

[Titch]

On the girlie level, he doesn't do it for me.

 

[racecub]

A little clean cut perhaps? Looks like he needs roughing up a little? I know what you mean.

 

[RasputinLives]

Sorry. Don't mean to course confusion. I Don't think threads can be merged. Especially with Brogan out of the loop at the moment.

How about we keep my thread for all things race related and this one to rub our knees and drool over him?

 

[racecub]

No worries, it's easily done.
I think we've done with our girlie talk though, there are only so many times you can discuss his abs. It was a lighthearted add on to the actual link about him.
Surely someone has mod privileges to merge? it's an easy job with mod tools.
Be silly to split the discussion into two threads, there's bound to be overlap.

 

[cider_and_toast]

We had lots of mods but we were all sacked because we didn't agree with Brogan's choice of biscuits at the monthly board meetings.

 

[Brogan]

I have moved RasputinLives' thread (Pascal Wehrlein) to the Drivers forum as that one has a bit of a write up.

This one I have moved to the Off The (Pit) Wall forum.

I no longer really visit the site nor read the threads, so if any moderation is required it's better to report the thread or post, which will give it a better chance of being seen (eventually).

 

[teabagyokel]

cider_and_toast - Why he didn't check before the meeting?

 

[racecub]

I did click report as soon as I made the Wehrlein thread and ask could someone please move it to the driver thread.
