Live timing of the practice, qualifying and race.
They've resurrected the old lap chart formats published in Motoring News etc.
Can't wait for first race

I dont know but in the qualifying they didn't do as well as i thaught they would, and Coulthards little mistake round the last corner didnt help did it. But i think that one of the best qualifyings was by Jenson Button he did very well beating the Mclaren and the BMW, but he might have been on a lot lighter fuel load to the rest of the field. Anyway looking forward to the race tomorrow/ tonight.Originally Posted by bum-man

Did anyone else spot the error in the Siemens timing system ?
They obviously out-sourced the software development to the lowest bidder.
When Montoya passed the first sector marker with exactly the same time as Webber ( 29.xx ) the difference clock showed the sector time and not the difference. Someone couldn't do the math properly to simply subtract one number from the other and get it right.
All you folks running your networks on Siemens servers and PCs or whose telephone network uses EWSD exchanges I'd go check it's still working

well looks like ferrari are back to their winning dominance after the scare of last year. i was hoping webber wouldve at least scored points on his home ground, but still hes been on overload ever since he got here publicity wise and his whole scedule's been planned months in advance because so many people want to interview him or have him make a public appearance

M. Schumacher, Barra and Ferrari maintain their Dominance of the F1. This car looks very fast and far supirior over BMW and Mclaren, long time to go yet though. Mclaren might want to make there cars last the journey. Nice one Kimi. Jaguar, phh, first day of testing they had hydrolic failure in there gearboxs you would think they would have sorted out that.
Performance can Seduce

Yawn what a dull race it was.
To be perfectly honest i dont like f1 much anyways too far removed from road going cars...
And alfaholic you really need to give credit where credit is due jaguar didnt do too badly to qualify 6th and as for the gearbox failure problems occur especially when a car is on the razors edge. Same thing with Mclarren there are new rules put in place that mean you can only use one engine(as i am sure you fully know)...its unkown territory...i didnt see Schumacher raceing full on all the way...why? because he could and he wanted to make sure he lasted full race distance. And saying nice one kimmi? what a ignorent thing to say thier only human and accidents do happen. -1 to rep

UCP fell asleep during the race. This Ferrari dominance is embarrassing, especially when you have to set your alarm at 04.00 hours.
