Maylasia Grid Game Discussion
« on: March 24, 2013, 12:20:58 PM »
Interesting that 44% of us put Alonso for the win (myself included).

Nice work by Irisado scoring 12 and taking an early lead in this years championship. Do we have a female champion in our midst?

It would have been as different story if Vettel had followed team orders as only 2 players had Webber for the win.

A great race though and thanks to all who showed up for a live race chat.  :good:

Wasn't that funny that both Rosberg and Vettel asked their teams to have their teammates move over for them.  Vettel took matters into his own hands, but Rosberg wasn't ever quite fast enough.

I won't spend any time discussing the race, but it was a bit of fun, eh?  Thanks to Lewis for giving us all good laughs when he pulled into Mclaren's pit.  I would have been on the floor laughing if the boys had then pulled his wheels off and left him (as someone said in chat) :DD :DD :DD

Forgot o set my alarm :'(I missed being with all the
guys and gals so I'll be there next race for sure.

Really disappointed over how a pattern may  be
set for the season by Red Bull and Mercedes.

I wish MS would have stuck around so we  could
have seen how the nre Merc suited him.

I'd love nothing more in F1 than to see Vettel and
Hamilton on the same team.

maybe I should have put my above post in hero's and zero's ;)


As far as the gg I'm steady at a lousey 8 points per race average.

Don't get too comfortable  up there Irisado ;)a du up the
right time can make a drastic change and there's always
John and Stealth lurking in the back ground.

For that to be so, I would have to be Irisada ;).

How the heck does a Minardi fan end up leading this any way!?  I think that my pot luck guess working is serving me far too well thus far :D.

Shouldn't Malaysia have been classified wet as they started on inters ?

They did indeed start on inters Ian. This was due to some rain before the race had started, there was no rain during the actual race. After discussing it in the chat room most agreed (even if they lost points) that it was a dry race. I decided to go with the majority plus the officials backed this by decreeing it a dry race from the very start.

Tough one to call.

Very early in the season, got to get used to the new pecking order for 2013, then the high scores will come (I hope).

I think Wiz made the right call Ian.

1- it wasn't raining when the race started

2-it beat you out of points ;),hey wait it beat me too
