So who do you think will get the title this year? Massa or Hamilton?

Personally I would like and think Lewis will get it - however he doesn't seem to like doing things the easy way. If he does get it I expect it'll be by 1 or 2 points. :rolleyes:

Here's the drivers table as of the 7th of October

<table class="three-col-results" summary="table detailing the driver's championship table" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><th>Driver</th> <th> Team</th> <th> Points</th> </tr> <tr> <td>1. Lewis Hamilton</td><td>McLaren Mercedes</td><td>84</td> </tr> <tr class="even"> <td>2. Felipe Massa</td><td>Ferrari</td><td>77</td> </tr> <tr> <td>3. Robert Kubica</td><td>BMW Sauber </td><td>64</td> </tr> <tr class="even"> <td>4. Kimi Raikkonen</td><td>Ferrari</td><td>57</td> </tr> <tr> <td>5. Nick Heidfeld</td><td>BMW Sauber </td><td>56</td> </tr> <tr class="even"> <td>6. Heikki Kovalainen</td><td>McLaren Mercedes</td><td>51</td> </tr> <tr> <td>7. Fernando Alonso</td><td>Renault</td><td>38</td> </tr> <tr class="even"> <td>8. Sebastian Vettel</td><td>Scuderia Toro Rosso</td><td>27</td> </tr> <tr> <td>9. Jarno Trulli</td><td>Toyota</td><td>26</td> </tr> <tr class="even"> <td>10. Timo Glock</td><td>Toyota</td><td>20</td> </tr> <tr> <td>11. Mark Webber</td><td>Red Bull Racing</td><td>20</td> </tr> <tr class="even"> <td>12. Nico Rosberg</td><td>Williams</td><td>17</td> </tr> <tr> <td>13. Nelson Piquet Jr</td><td>Renault</td><td>13</td> </tr> <tr class="even"> <td>14. Rubens Barrichello</td><td>Honda Racing</td><td>11</td> </tr> <tr> <td>15. Kazuki Nakajima</td><td>Williams</td><td>9</td> </tr> <tr class="even"> <td>16. David Coulthard</td><td>Red Bull Racing</td><td>8</td> </tr> <tr> <td>17. Sebastien Bourdais</td><td>Scuderia Toro Rosso</td><td>4</td> </tr> <tr class="even"> <td>18. Jenson Button</td><td>Honda Racing</td><td>3</td></tr></tbody></table>

not bringing him in at china for new tires when the sensors on the car told the pit's that the tires were worn out, his fault ?

Not telling them he had to go into the pits or just driving in, in which case they'd have had to change them, not his fault?

There/ They're/ Their. Different words.

i think that Massa will win it this year. Next year i think someone new will win it, not hamilton, but maybe BMW or Honda even, maybe even Red bull, depending on how all the teams adjust to the new regulations

If ferrari continue to mess up in the pits and get engine problems then they won't be winning!

Woah look! It's DJ Drew!

They have gone back to the lollipop for the rest of the season

I think the BBC will go for a more top gear approach when presenting the F1 instead of ITV's interview heavy program. at least I hope so, I've started to tune in when the race starts and not watching pre race stuff it's getting really boring - only good pre race bit is when they are on the grid interviewing random people

hope bbc hire martin brundle and they keep the grid walks just for quotes like this

Martin: “Any interesting people in your little entourage I can talk to?”

Bernie: “The Prime Minister.”

Martin: “Oh, you’ve done me before on Prime Ministers!”

if you don't want to know todays result until the re-run don't read.

Wow.. today's was over in the first few laps, Lewis needs to learn to not always go on the attack - instead he did and ended up 12th...

He wasted a set of tires on the first corner ¬_¬

He was lucky Massa only gained 1 point, I wonder if her will get punished for hitting into sebastian bourdais

spoiler in case anyone is waiting for the re-run to see the result

He [Lewis] managed to actually finish this time was was nice, shame kovi didn't show the same pace as lewis so that the points damage could have been more but Lewis can afford to come 5th if Massa comes 1st and win, However with lewis it doesn't seem to be that easy...

We'll see...

      Not sure the obsession from Aled with celebrities. Between him and Danny Beard he's making some odd decisions.

      Reference to Jordan having Katie’s coat (random), and potentially taking the old show box with him.

      I'm curious - in what context did Vick and Katie mention Jordan? Was it r.e. Arielle's wedding?

      Since Easter at the beginning of April, Vick, Katie and Jamie have been on together just 4 times. Which is crazy for a brand new, high profile Radio 1 show. Imagine Jordan being off that regularly on Capital because of ‘other commitments’ - would never happen.  Jamie has only presented 6 times in the past month. Katie has presented every single show. Given how she got the job at the last minute I think very likely she would have had other commitments, which she will have cancelled/rearranged, cos being Radio 1 drive time host is a massive gig.   Vick, Katie and Jamie - 4 times; Vick and Katie - 10 times; Katie and Jamie - 2 times; Katie and Lauren - 2 times.

      I see Katie (and Mairead) were out with Jordan tonight.  I don’t listen to the show any longer, I am shocked they are allowed to mention Jordan.

      A simple check on his instagram would answer all your questions , he’s on tour with his wife and the team behind his podcast. I suggest anyone to follow the radio presenters, you will learn a lot about their other jobs and work commitments.

      Where is Jamie? It felt like he was settling in when Vick wasn’t on but he’s not been on since last Tuesday now. They’ve not even mentioned him, in fact they’ve mentioned Jordan more than they’ve mentioned him in the last two days.

      Scott's show is on the road next week, live from Malmö in Sweden on Wednesday and Friday, ahead of Eurovision. As he's doing the semi final coverage on the TV on Tuesday and Thursday alongside Rylan, Gary Davies sits in for him on those days.

      Scott v Matt and Mollie

      By Bluestraw · Posted

      I don't feel there's so much overlap between M&M and Scott's shows. M&M is of a similar calibre to Scott & Chris on R1, with genuine laugh out loud moments and usually a show packed full of real interesting content. Scott's R2 show is IMO a shadow of the stuff he did on R1 (not his fault, he's doing exactly what station management want), with music and content to appeal to a much older audience.

      Scott v Matt and Mollie

      By NathanS · Posted

      To be fair, Scott & Chris would've still been fine on Radio 1. It was mentioned at the time that Scott's move was very much on Radio 2's part rather than Radio 1 wanting to move them on. That's the one problem that Radio 2 has, trying to appeal to such a wide demographic.. it's the perfect listen for many, but equally a turn off for many others. I think they have the balance fairly right.

      Scott v Matt and Mollie

      By Acelink · Posted

      I agree Scott has always been a good standalone presenter, but always better when with someone. When chappers left the radio one show it felt a different show and Chris joining was what it needed and brought new life. for the format of the radio 2 show Scott’s show fits well with the station but again, there’s the huge gap between radio1 and 2 As been said already old radio2 listeners feel it now feels too young with latest changes, yet old radio1 listeners still feel radio 2 feels too old. The inbetween stage demographic of too old for radio 1 but too young for radio 2 is still not catered for radio 2 was left to grow old with its audience for too long and to change things up now feels to try and change a brand image the right thing to do is leave it as it is and cater for that 1.5 demographic which I’m sure the new proposed 00s and 10s station will do if approved. Problem is it’s so overdue that by the time it gets off the ground these listeners are already likely to be lost and the changing image of radio2 likely to lose what it stands for as a brand with the “it’s too young now “  moving to boom and the “ it still sounds old “ crowd not able to move with their favourite presenters like Scott so finding themself on capital a radio 1.5 would have been perfect for Scott and Chris, seems unlikely but this is why I think who branding of bbc radio needs a rethink if these new stations get off ground
