Looks like I'm first to post........ 8) :lol: :lol: :lol: :shock: :shock: :shock:


Anyway, after copious amounts of Old Forester Signature bourbon, here are my picks for Canada.....................
1st} Fernando Alonso(just representing my team the only way I know how......winning with class and respect, something a certain Red Bull driver needs to learn.............)
2nd} Mark Webber(at least he's not talking about me...........I think..,....... :shock: :shock: )
3rd} Sebastien Vettel(who's Alonso again? Did he win a WDC sometime in the past........? :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: )
4th} Lewis Hamilton(yes, Vettel, he won.........twice. :shock: :shock: )
5th} Michael Schumacher(if he'd been w/Brawn and crashed into me at Istanbul......... :x )
6th} Jenson Button(when you finally win a WDC, Sebby, maybe you'll see the error of your ways in Istanbul...........)
7th} Felipe Massa( :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: )
8th} Adrian Sutil( :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: )
9th} Nico Rosberg(thinks to himself, "Who won the 24 Hours of LeMans this year? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: )
10th} Rubens Barrichello(at least we'll get to watch a little bit of the race before we race Sunday..........)

Pole Position: Mark Webber(who still can't believe Vettel tried to crash into him at Istanbul..........)

:) Greetings. I agree with mlittle; Seb has lessons (important ones!) to learn: 1. a massive talent does not overrule basic physics; 2. you beat your partner in qualy or when he makes a mistake; you don't risk points by expecting him to let you by; 3. to finish first first you must finish

So Like you I pick Mark Webber for the Pole and the Win!

1. Webbo
2. lil' Seb V. now playing the good team mate
3. Jenson Button, showing HIS partner something about how to take the slow curves
4. young Lewis Hambone, now playing the good team mate
5. Fernando, because he's that good
6. Kubica for the same reason as Fernando
7. lil Felipe Massa now playing the good team mate, too
8. Nico Rosberg, NOT playing the good team mate
9. Michael Schumacher, still learning? (Ross, why oh why didn't you TELL me?)
10. Adrian Sutil because someone has to get the last point

looking forward to fun in the rain or shine; Canada Oh Canada!!

Rain? No rain?
I bet it will be wet. My picks:

Winner: Mark Webber

Second: Fernando Alonso

Third: Lewis Hamilton

Fourth: Sebastian Vettel

Fifth: Jenson Button

Sixth: Michael Schumacher

Seventh: Adrian Sutil

Eighth: Robert Kubica

Ninth: Nico Rosberg

Tenth: Rubens Barrichello

Pole: Lewis Hamilton

Most of my picks have been impressive in the wet, one time or the other. I also expect Red Bull to stay ahead of McLaren this time, though that may change for next race.
Ferrari will have the F-duct system right? Otherwise Alonso has no chance to end on the podium :oops:
