Re: 2012 F1 - Sao Paulo Brazil

Whatever said and done Ferrari has the right to seek clarification and now that things are clear we need to pull our socks and move instead of calling Ferrari losers and Alonso a cry baby. I sometimes feel there is lot of venting out for no reason especially online by supporters even after the teams & drivers themselves move on. They are all competing for millions in prize money that would aid funding in this recession packed times. Why not try something if there is a chance? We need to look forward to the 2013 Championship. Hope Ferrari can get some down force working better on those corners if they have any hope in challenging the bulls.

OT: Just got to know TATA Sky will be adding a few new channels in coming days. I am praying Sky Sports will be provided, cant bear Slater'isms any more!

That 'the Best Team and Best Driver won this year' is also a theory

Massa found his pace only in the last 2 grandprix of the season and qualified ahead of Alonso too. He was busy figthing midfield cars all through the season. Even if someone says Massa's car was sabotaged, Ferrari would be stupid to not want to fight for the Constructors title!

Re: 2012 F1 - Sao Paulo Brazil

Well the clarification has come and FIA has confirmed Vettel won fairly.

So unless someone here on the forum knows much more than the folks at FIA do,can we all please move ahead

Between,a stinging editorial at PF1 puts things in perspective much better.Couldnt agree more with that.

Cant understand why Alonso and Ferrari such a Big Loser. This Desperate..

Alonso tweeted cryptically on Tuesday: “I cannot perform miracles. I make miracles within the rules.”
Frankly i admire Alonso as the best out there currently, but i just cant stand the arrogance and overinflated sense of self worth that he has, same goes for hamilton - quickest of the lot but also with a tongue quicker than his mind.
Looks like vettel is bernies golden boy!Heard that he often joins bernie in evenings for cracking english jokes over dinner.

Re: 2012 F1 - Sao Paulo Brazil

If Alonso is arrogant then Vettel is the tasmanian devil.

How is Alonso any less deserving due to his fortitude and confidence which is labeled as arrogance? Alonso pales in comparison to Vettel.

I've never heard Alonso uttering the F word, calling people who are 10 years older than him "idiots/cucumbers" or giving them the middle finger.

Sure Karthikeyan isn't F1 stuff but jeez, at least give the guy a break. He's driving an HRT and he's 10 years older.


Vettel is a namesake 3 time "champion". Alonso, barring some 2007 antics, is a champion and gentleman in many senses of these words.

Vettel is and will be a brat whose little kid attitude is overlooked at because he's everybody's blue eyed baby in a pram.

Re: 2012 F1 - Sao Paulo Brazil

Found this somewhere. Brazilian GP from cockpit cam. No sound and no lap info.




PS: you can skip the 1st 5mins if you want to get directly to race start.

This is raw cockpit cam footage and these cameras only record video and not sound.
