The 2012 Season

[Brogan]

I think the issue won't arise as Hamilton is too far behind now anyway.

However, if Hamilton does get back into contention, don't expect Button or the team to help him.
A 1-2 for the team will score the same number of constructor points no matter the order.

I still think Jenson would let through if it was the last race because I think thats the kind of bloke Jenson is. We'll see I guess

Pace wise, are we roughly here?:

 

[F1Yorkshire]

I'd swap Perez and Massa. Your graph seems to suggest Massa to be equally as fast as Alonso and we all know that's not allowed true. I'd bring Alonso forward a touch too.

 

[teabagyokel]

I think you're right, F1Yorkshire, so I've edited. Didn't realise 6 and 5 were so close...

Pastor in front of Kimi?

 

[F1Yorkshire]

Pastor in front of Kimi?

I think that's right, when he keeps his nose out of trouble he can be a quick driver.

 

[MCLS]

If he hadn't been involved in so many crashes he could be almost double what points he has at the moment

 

[Kamui-FastestChefInTheWorld]

PdlR should be a bit higher than that, surely

 

[RasputinLives]

Yeah PdR has had the measure of Karth all season - I know I went for Karth in the team-mates thingy

 

[teabagyokel]

Karthikeyan has outqualified him in the last two...

Nice graph. Is this (driver+car)'s pace or just driver's pace?

 

[teabagyokel]

Olivier - Driver + Car. I don't think we can measure the pace of just the driver.

 

[Mephistopheles]

Olivier - Driver + Car. I don't think we can measure the pace of just the driver.

We could if they all put on their running shoes and did a lap...

 

[RasputinLives]

Karthikeyan has outqualified him in the last two...

Which makes it 9-2 to PdR - which is pretty convincing that he has the legs on Karth

 

[teabagyokel]

RasputinLives - It's supposed to be a reasonably recent guide, not a reflection of the whole season.

 

[RasputinLives]

fair enough. I'll shut up

 

[Brogan]

Vettel and Red Bull seem to have rediscovered their form from last year so Vettel could be on for his third WDC title in a row.

Alonso's car is nowhere near good enough which makes the only real challengers McLaren.

 

[Chad Stewarthill]

And they aren't going to challenge (at least, not for the WDC) are they?

 

[Wombcat]

Vettel looks to be the favorite now, but I expect him to DNF one of the remaining races, so it's not over yet.
