AJBangkok Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Although not Phuket related I'm excited that the season is starting this weekend. This year I want to Kimi beat the pants of Vettel and Button put Alonso in his place. (Which is behind him) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivinginKata Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Well, Button should make the best of the first race as Alonso not even racing in Australia. Kimi beating Vettel, hard to see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 There is also a F1 thread on the sports forum. http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/789523-f1-2015/ For those who don't have a TV or not wish to stream the practice sessions, Autosport have nice live reportage of the practise sessions. http://live.autosport.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alonso is lucky not to be racing as the performance of the Maclaren today in FP2 was horrible. Kimi looked more comfortable in the car than Vettel but Vettel did manage a faster lap. I was surprised the see the Ferrari's solidly outpacing the williams but it is only practice after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsie888 Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Off topic I know, but I haven't been able to find any live coverage of the V8 Supercar racing this weekend. Anybody know any different? Mercedes appear pretty comfortable............. Sauber have some issues off track which will be interesting to watch. Dan Ricciardo must be pretty cheesed off today having used the 1st of his 4 motors for the season before the first race. Ferrari looking quite OK at this stage. What do you Guy's think?

stevehaigh Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 i'm going to the Aussie pub in Rawai to watch, maybe see some of you there. 1pm our time right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowprofile Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 I hope the next races are interesting. That was awful. Should have gone for a nap instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LivinginKata Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 I hope the next races are interesting. That was awful. Should have gone for a nap instead. Exactly. I just finished watching the delayed BBC coverage. Terrible, even the commentators could not drum up any excitment. 16 car start, 11 car finish. Dreadful. Bernie must be pulling out any hair left under his wig. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Croc Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 If it's just going to another season with the vastly superior Mercedes cars disappearing into the distance I don't think I'll bother with it. And, having the best car, with only his fairly average team mate to compete against, is going to greatly stroke Hamilton's already massive ego. He really thinks he's the best in the world! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansgruber Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Rule changes ruin the sport and I lost interest. The rule changes are lobbied by the powerful teams to swing dominance in their favour. It's less about racing now and more about politics and money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LivinginKata Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Most importantly, it was an exciting race. Yes, exactly Steven. It was much better entertainment value than the Melbourne race. Might turn into a more interesting season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might turn into a more interesting season. “Might turn into a more interesting season”... Hab sheesh...only 2 races in and the curmudgeon club is already launching the diapers...just because the fastest thing you lot ride on is in a home stair chair lift, how could you possibly know what it’s like sitting in one on those cars?...oh never mind. I’m going to Silverstone with my brother and a work colleague is going to the Monaco circuit...lucky bugger...I’d love to go to that one but the air tickets and accommodation are silly money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
