Connected to the rain in Monaco thread in reference to todays drivers b*tching about rain.

More specifically, are they somewhat more pansified nowadays?
Theyve got so many adavantages over guys from even just few years ago; better tyres, aero packages and safety stuff that hadnt even been dreamt of not so long back.
If thats right that some of them are crying to mom because it may rain and itll create a few difficulties for them, or rather itll expose their lack of real skill, then they need to take a look at these videos; these guys had none of what the likes of todays drivers have yet theyre not hanging about- balls of steel imho.

Right click-save as. Enjoy.

it doesn't matter what the equipment is... you still have to drive it as fast as it will go.

it just appears that they dont though, many are happy with seventh or eigth and dont relish the chance to take on a few others for some points and a bit of notoriety. yeah i know, the aeros dont help the car behind but sometimes you just wish a driver would take a few big chances and go for a late braking opp. and granted, modern circuits dont help, the layouts lean towards long sweeping corners and monaco is as dull as dishwater so i dont expect anything tomorrow if its dry, but if its wet, i'll watch it hoping to see some midfielder prove his worth...
