^And on a different day and with a clear track, no less!Rofl. So in a quicker car with a different aero/tyre package, someone set a quicker time. Pointless.

But I have no motorsport experience, no? And I haven't spent the last 2yrs having tests in f1 cars?Fatboy_fat said:Quicker than someone who's been driving F1 cars for years after a bit of practice, love to see you do it....
Oh yes, rofl right back at ya babe :sleepy:
And the next day Massa was in THAT SAME CAR and went 3 seconds quicker.
So your thead title should read. 'Massa MUCH faster than Rossi'
No. He's pointing out that it's irrelevant. You can't pick which parts of a story you consider relevant to prove your point lol. 3s slower in the same car is a lifetime in f1. I'd wager that with similar practice, loeb would be quicker. f**k, even badoer would be!Fatboy_fat said:Missing the point somewhat ? HE DOESN'T DRIVE F1 CARS FOR A LIVING !

With the incessent progress in F1, it's amazing to note that a 2 year old car is faster than last years car (according to the brains on here)

Oh god. F1 chat has it's very own version of jordi. I'm scared you guys should be too.
ironicReally sorry that I'm not living up to the standards laid down by your good self you God of all F1 knowledge.
The only reason that I posted this, was that I thought it was pretty impressive that someone, admittedly from a motorsport background, (but a totally different one), could get so close to the professional drivers with their countless miles of practice and racing, and many years of experience.
This used to be a pretty good forum, but all it seems to have turned into is a place for people to try and pounce on any perceived mistake, and make themselves appear to be the big man.

He was 3s a lap slower than a guy recovering from a massive head injury. You can't compare the time he set to Rubens' time, the cars are completely different.
3s means he's nowhere near the level required. He should be thankful alonso wasn't about.
Don't get precious 'babe'. People posted about the pointless article, you jumped on the high horse, and got your knickers in a twist.
I think the tone in the quotes speaks for itself, does it not?

Edit, just realised he story is on a M/c site, they aint gonna mention that much are they
OKNo, I'm afraid it does not. Please explain the irony comment ?
It starts with mild banterQuicker than someone who's been driving F1 cars for years after a bit of practice, love to see you do it....

Factually wrong and an attempt to be patronising.With the incessent progress in F1, it's amazing to note that a 2 year old car is faster than last years car (according to the brains on here)

There we go. Banter
No one called you pointless. The article is a pointless one. It tells half the story.Fatboy_fat said:Fairplay to you, that's quite impressive !
I quite like a bit of banter, but I was only reacting to the "pointless" comment. I'm quite happy to be called a cnut, amongst other things, but please...don't call me pointless, I'm 47 and getting to the part of my life where that really hurts

I think the point you're missing is that 3s is not close. 0.1 of a second can be a massive amount in f1. If that's his level, he'd get his butt kicked all over the grid by most drivers.
But then I'm sure the situation would be the same if the roles were reversed. Doesn't mean the guy doesn't have talent, just not enough when it comes to f1. So far.
Rossi is KING :hail:
