:shock: :shock: You guys are just jealous. Your guys are getting beaten by a little kid :TOTW: :rolling: :ROTFLMAO: :TOTW:

I seem to recall Webber (he-who-is-half-a-second-faster-than-his-team-mate-yet-behind-him-in-the-points) ram a few other cars in classic Bambino style :shock: :shock: :D

Lets see at what cost he will go on to win the championship.

You can dream of the ridiculous 8)
I'm back and yes supporting Alonso "The Cute" in the Ferrari!

I see DC is near the top of the speed list with that slow Cosworth too - or is it just low downforce wings? :lol:

Team and Driver quotes from Friday are now available here

Michael Schumacher's spin was partly a result of "trying everything you can to improve"!

What happened to Nick?? He was there on Friday but not today. The McLarens are going to be hard to stop here. It seem that the usual suspects are still where they are supposed to be at the top of the time sheets,

Heidfeld pulled out after suffering headaches this morning. This is believed to be related to a crash he had in testing last week.
