no, bitter Kimi fans were complaining and speculating that the team always messes with Kimi's car so Vettel can finish before him, but their theory collapsed with this team decision

Nope, it happened out on the track at full speed. Here's the video:

RIP, Justin.

Matt, it happened during a race. Right now, we're looking into having a closed cockpit. It will also work for F1, I think. But just the same, having a closed cockpit can also be dangerous (what if there's a fire?).

I see. From what I'm reading now, Seb stands by the team and blames it all on Pirelli. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the next race. TIFOSI!!!!

Ferrari and Pirelli to 'clear the air' at Monza ahead of Italian Grand Prix

there's no way they can be 100% safe at such speed

***L i N d $ @ y*** · 08-27-2015, 07:54 PM

Exactly. However which way you look at it, motorsport/car racing is dangerous. But it wouldn't hurt to look at all the possible ways to keep it safe.

Joanna are you ready for this? I hope Ferrari makes it 1-2 in Italy.

JoJoF92 · 08-28-2015, 04:29 AM

that would be incredible!! I would probably cry

it's true they have to keep working on making it more and more safe as much as they can

***L i N d $ @ y*** · 08-28-2015, 07:49 PM

HAHA! The way the Mercs are lately, I'm doubtful. Though at least I think Vettel has a chance next weekend. That is if he has a good quali.

Hang on, is Italy in danger of not being in the race calendar next year?

JoJoF92 · 08-29-2015, 09:01 AM

one can always dream

oh no, I'd hate to see Monza go

but the article says Italy would still hold a race but on a different track

***L i N d $ @ y*** · 08-29-2015, 08:59 PM

That's fair enough. I'd rather have it on the race calendar than none at all.

Finally another new GP next weekend. That wasn't such a long wait was it?

JoJoF92 · 08-30-2015, 05:51 AM

nah, it's not that long. I watched the Athletics WCH all week and US Open starts tomorrow, I think I'll be fine

***L i N d $ @ y*** · 08-30-2015, 07:25 AM

OMG, I totally forgot about US Open. I don't really watch it because that tournament never works for my timezone. Most of the matches air at 12AM to 7AM my time.

We got through that long-ass break in-between Hungary & Belgium. All the other breaks now moving forward are definitely fine.
