The Official Japanese GP Thread 2012 ***SPOILERS***
Discussion
When everything is going for him Vettel is unstoppable. Newey finally figured out how to speed the car up.
Webber made a great recovery.
Good drive from Kamui.
Hulk impressed, good pace and for the most part consistent.
Massa just signed his 2013 contract with that.
Kimi pretty anonymous whilst his team mate set several FLs
Grosjean - He's got the speed, no doubt. I think the penalty was harsh, Webber was very slow off of the corner and did seem to move about a bit - Romain was to blame but I think he's being used as a bit of a kickbag.
Perez - oh dear.
Ricciardo - Nice drive, hope he can get to a better team soon.
Lewis made the best of a bad setup, good stops.
Button - Did okay, they obviously solved the gearbox issues eventually.
The rest were pretty forgettable I think.

The problem is, he has to understand that for the first few corners you simply cannot drive around on the normal racing line like the track is empty. He just kept pushing around the corner, failed to recognise that Webber was always going to close the door and barrelled into him like a teenager on GT5...

Aftermath.... consider this.
How loud would the outcry have been here on PH if it was RG's Lotus which came into contact with FA's Ferrari and not one of PH's favourites ?
Controversial

Oooo~er ... don't go there...
I think it'd have been the same regardless. The bloke's showing himself to be a liability How loud would the outcry have been here on PH if it was RG's Lotus which came into contact with FA's Ferrari and not one of PH's favourites ?

Strong comments from Brundle and Herbert about Grosjean. Herbert saying Lotus should let him go!
I thought that was gonna turn in to a "lets go down there now, us three, and knack him in. That'll learn him!"Like a baying mob, or 3 guys in the pub. All mouth no trousers.

In your analogy, what would the trousers part entail? I mean they're just commentators, not much they can do? I mean you could say "all mouth no trousers" about any negative comment from a commentator surely?
Thy could go down an fill him in. That would be very entertaining !Marf said:
