Comment on Stewards led by Damon Hill penalise Michael Schumacher, Mercedes to appeal by Namogleb

Alonso sleeping but nevertheless a great move from Michael. A shame that someone like Damon Hill had anything to say about the penalty. It’s very clear now he still is’t over his frustrations from long ago. You can easily add this incident to the likes of Monza 95 & Silverstone 95. Nobody’s perfect but this is getting ridiculous.

So the stewards penalise the drivers. Who penalises the stewards in cases like this?

Comment on Lewis Hamilton opens his big mouth again, claims he does not want Michael Schumacher’s legacy (Like he has a choice) by Ajeet

Yes i see the difference. I wasn’t born at the time he started his career, so i didn’t know, i only witnessed him towards his final season in 2006.
Schumacher was a superb driver in his prime, the number of wins reflected his talent.
However during Schumackers reigning years there was little opposition, in comparison to the number of competitive teams and drives that Hamilton has had to face in his career so far. We can see it in this 2012 season, Schumacher is failing to keep up, but Hamilton is up there in the points. Fair enough that Schumacher is quite a bit older than Hamilton and so we typically wouldn’t expect him to be as competitive, but then why has he made a return to Formula One when he is clearly incapable of success.

You can debate whether Schumacker is a better driver than Hamilton but the verdict is purely up to opinion, two great drivers of different eras and ages, at different stages of their career will simply be impossible to compare unless they compete in the present, which is what is happening in this 12′ season and we can clearly see that Hamilton is far more successful and has a greater chance of wining the championship compared to Schumacher

Comment on Cucumber Narain Karthikeyan calls Sebastien Vettel a crybaby by What basis

What basis — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 09:53:16 +0000

On what basis is Narayan Karthikeyan even in F1? He is by no means a driver of any reputable standards. He’s even not at par with Pedro De La Rosa. What could HRT possibly hope to achieve by being in F1?

The answer is simple: HRT is here for the short haul. Make money through the huge sponsorship brought in by Karthikeyan and somewhat from De La Rosa. Their cars are 6-7 seconds off the pace, and it will remain that way. It’s not because HRT can’t do better. It’s because their business model is simple: make money by getting lots of sponsorship funds, but channel a very tiny quantity of the same to their F1 budget. The net result is the entrepreneurs at HRT making good money.

Karthikeyan is marketed in India as the “fastest Indian”, so with a billion dreaming, sponsors are guaranteed. But, it gets really boring to see him amount to nothing weekend after weekend in the eyes of the Indian people, who tend to dream big. Unfortunately, Karthikeyan can never get anywhere remotely close to 10th place even if here were driving a Red Bull, McLaren, Ferrari or Mercedes. Count all possible parallel galaxies where he could race, and he still wouldn’t get anywhere close to 10th place.

So, the sponsors are worried. What do you do? You create an incident and get the whole Indian population behind him. The only question is, how long will gimmicks like this last before the FIA puts in strong regulations to separate those who’re in it for the sport and those who’re in it for commercial exploitation.

I think that when a person like Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel crys because they are happy to become great achievements and conquer the sport of formula 1. i disagree when Narain Karthikeyan to have a cheek to call Seb Vettel a cry baby, this indian guy dont realise how drivers feels when he hasnt achieved nothing he is a insault to injury. he do not deserve to be a formula 1 racing driver, he has got hatred and jealousy running through his blood, if he said that to me i would have him thrown out of formula 1 and banned for life.

Comment on Sebastien Vettel has wings now, calls Narain Karthikeyan a ‘cucumber’ after collision by Andy

Much like his incident with Webber at Turkey, Vettel makes another assumption that a driver will just move out of his way on a straight.
He made his own mistake with his oversteer correction and for some odd reason then kept parallel to the track for a few seconds instead of moving to the right side for the up-coming left-hander like a normal considerate driver.

What kind of propaganda is this , trying to show Vettel as the villain in this whole drama, Narain Karthikeyan was at fault and is most definitely a cucumber

One does not have to be an Indian to be an idiotic driver on the formula one circuit, there are multiple examples, most latest being Romain Grosjean, I want to know Schumacher’s reaction to the nudge he got from him.

Sebastien Vettel’s anger although a little overhyped is understandable.

I am fully in agreement with Sebastien Vettel, Narain drove like a total idiot there and cost the faster Red bull curious positions, you could see how angry Vettel was with his fists up in the air swearing at the cucumber Karthikeyan.

Hi Ajeet,

Schumacher made his debut in a Jordan and qualified it on 6th

Lewis made his debut in the fastest car of the year ’07, McLaren. Do you see the difference, or playing ignorant to make a point, or simply didn’t know about it?
