2012 Korean Grand Prix

[Submerged]

Oh hello, some of the grid girls look nice.

 

[Centura]

Watching the team trying to do Gangnam style was quite amusing. Now they're showing what Brundle is wearing on the gridwalk while waiting for an interview with Vettel (Least I think it was Brundle).

Nope, not Brundle. It looked like him, but it's not. Brundle's (Well. Sky's.) microphone is red, not yellow.

I did indeed found those two things amusing, but clearly BBC doesn't care about spending a lot of money on making good coverage at this race or they've completely run out of money for extra fluff during coverage that makes it so entertaining.

 

[ZEROX]

I'm with either of the RBR driver for the win though more prefer on Webber for the win.

 

[Submerged]

Interesting observation Centura.

I guess because they are sharing the races with Sky, they believe it would be better for them to slowly reduce the outlay that they spend on it?

 

[ghskilla]

Webber win. Vettel no points. Alonso podium. My hopes.

 

[dhandeh]

I will just get this in for the first lap.

 

[mattythedog]

Hopefully this is a good race.

 

[ghskilla]

Vettel leads.

The BBC do seem to have reduced the coverage to the bear minimum. They're doing less features in the pre-race show, instead trying to stretch it out with more interviews etc. The post-race coverage is so poor these days, what happened to the F1 forum? It used to be great.

If it wasn't for Sky's extortionate prices... If I could get just the F1 channel for £10 a month I would bite their hand off. But currently it's £25 a month ontop of my Virgin subscription because I have to buy all of the other sports aswell.

 

[ZEROX]

Button out.

 

[PAWEL17]

Aaaaaaand Vettel has won.

Saw this start a mile away.

 

[Blitz24]

And Button damaged.

 

[dhandeh]

Hopefully this is a good race.

Seeing he that can't be mentioned is already in front, probably not.

 

[GTPorsche]

Looks like Kobayashi might have been hit into Button.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Unlucky Button!

 

[Müle]

LOL Button.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Rosberg also out!

 

[mattythedog]

Rosberg out.

 

[That90sGuy]

And whats wrong with Rosberg? He's gone too.

 

[ZEROX]

Kobayashi hits Button and Nico out too.

 

[Blitz24]

Rosberg out as well.

Seems he found a gap in the wall. Wonder if that is at all relevant.

 

[dhandeh]

What is it with a lack of replays lately? We never seem to get them now.

 

[mattythedog]

Looking good for my fantasy F1.


Perez had a great start.

 

[ZEROX]

And whats wrong with Rosberg? He's gone too.

Looks like punctured radiator.

 

[Blitz24]

Kobayashi tried to go 3 wide and played F1 pinball.

 

[ghskilla]

So Vettel leads... once that yellow is gone he'll be miles away.

 

[Barra333]

Webber is wasting his time if he tries to pass Vettel. If he does it, the team will just tell him to give the spot back for Vettel's championship

 

[ZEROX]

Vergne butt must have hurt. Ouch.

 

[PAWEL17]

Webber is wasting his time if he tries to pass Vettel. If he does it, the team will just tell him to give the spot back for Vettel's championship

Of course, he's there to keep Alonso away from taking 2nd.
I was counting on Alonso having that Sunday race pace, but RedBull is just too strong.

 

[dhandeh]

Move that Mercedes already!
