Two things you've said in your post to Kapel:

grandprixdiary wrote:Two, NK has done nothing of note, He qualifies exactly where just about anybody would in that car, he then tools around, keeping out of other peoples way and finishes pretty much where he started.

Well if you haven't noticed he has outqualified Monteiro by a massive margin. And if you are talking about the grid position then you are clearly trying to twist the facts. The lap time counts when looking at the ability or lack of in a driver.

As for finishing were he started, well a number of high profile drivers drove for Minardi and Jordan and they have all finished pretty much were they started when you take into account all the cars that retired.

What arrogance!! Unless you a part of the decision making process at Midland (which I doubt) how could you guarantee such a claim. Then how can you guarantee that Kerthikeyan won't move to Sauber or Red Bull or even a better team ? Ralf and Barrichello did!!

Sorry the only thing you can guarantee is the look on your face when Karthikeyan re-signs for Jordan or moves forward to a better team.

The shootout is the top ten qualifiers get one lap to get a better or worse position. It only effects the top ten places.

Might have to change a few things like maybe a top six shootout. There are usually about thirty cars on the grid for a V8 race.

There is a similar method being used with the German touring cars I think. Though don't quote me on that.

sounds good but "slow" teams won't acept the 'top-six shootout'... =/
...
thirty cars Q'ing in 20min, that must be tight!

For F1 would be good two sessions of 20 mins all-free with summed
times of the 2 sessions deciding final Q positions. what do you think people?

"I CONCUR"!!

rah wrote:Maybe they should try a reverse grid every now and then. Now that used to be a spectacle in V8s.

rah wrote:Well he has to start somewhere.

But seriously. Is there anyone on this forum that wouldn't, just once, like to see minardi and jordan dominating the first two rows of the grid.

Tell you what, if he is in F1 next year with anybody better than Minardi then I'll put a huge 'sorry' on the front page of 'Grand Prix Diary'. But it won't happen. He is a pay-driver, and judging by the size of the sponsor logos on the car he doesn't even bring that much money.
