How on god's green earth is the emergence of Ro Gro a source of embarrassment for Raik' :?
That conferms a suspicion that I have had for about 20 years. I think a disproportionate amount of Poms are pre ocupied with the tabloid aspect of sports.

Embarrasment with a question mark. As in shown up to not be the "fastest" driver over a lap.
Many of us thought he was back in the Mclaren days.

This confirms a suspicion that I have had for about 20 years. I think a disproportionate amount of Poms are pre occupied with the tabloid aspect of sports, and it is supported by many who never had a lick of talent in any real test of athletic skill. More to the point who claims to be able to crawl into anyone else's brain and know definatively their feelings in such matters, plus who cares?

After today I can't see there being many takers. No one could live with that speed today.

Raikkonen needs to do a better job in qualifying. Romain needs to do a better job in the race. Let's see if they can get their act togheter in the second half of the season. They are not far off second place in WCC and second and sixth place in WDC.
The speed of Ayrton Senna.
The mind of Alain Prost.
The dedication of Michael Schumacher.
The determination of Alex Zanardi.

Agreed. They have one of the best cars for sure now, too many missed opportunities.

To point out how lame the question that is posed by this thread is.

it was always going to be Kimi outscoring Romain

he's a fantastic driver, with a fantastic car underneath him, however Kimi's racecraft and guile are still as awesome as ever and are the real difference.

hope Kimi wins at Spa or Monza but wouldnt mind if Romain did either, just want the team to push on now

fantastic season for Lotus

The thread title was derived from a similar thread at the start of the year called "Embarrassment for Hamilton? The Reborn Button..."

Also the season ebbs and flows so please do read the title in the context of the original post.

I'm too busy. All your post tells me is that there is another thread that is equally irrelevant in an absurd way.
