Just watching the BBC post-show, Eddie Jordan is ridiculous
They're talking about McLaren woes, and EJ said along the lines of "they're obviously short of cash, why else would they take on a rookie..."
DC just said "uhm, well Lewis Hamilton was a good example of that..."
EJ reminds me of my Nana, pretty intelligent but mouth is just not connected to brain.

All about the car, nothing to do with the driver, the tyres graining, pit stop fuck up's, electrical faults etc etc.
Max chilton would've held Rosberg off whilst fighting through traffic imo.
Fuck off

Seemed to sound English to me. Maybe your TV sound settings are fucked?

He's most certainly got an American twang, but his social peergroup has been almost exclusively American for a while now, and he spent a fair amount of time living there too.

Jenson Button, such a classy guy
http://www1.skysports.com/f1/report/12479/9307183/jenson-button-says-mclaren-are-being-hurt-by-the-inexperience-of-kevin-magnussen
Portioning some of the blame on why Mclaren are such an utter embarrassment to his rookie team mate
Oh dear, oh dear. You're the team leader Jenson, why aren't you stepping up? Such a fucking snake.

To be honest, the actual televised interview where he said this was a bit different to how you're perhaps interpreting it from Sky's article(unless you've seen it of course, and you have a different opinion to me)

Disagree completely, he is keeping button honest and putting the pressure on 3 points separate them,
Maldonado should be booted out tbh

I'm always a bit sceptical when they pull a single quote from a larger interview and build a story around it.
That said Jenson is the most experienced guy on the grid, should more than make up for working with a rookie.

Where did I say the word ''spoke''? I said ''sounds''.
Maybe you need to take your computer back also?

I'll be honest, I'd rather the cars made no noise at all over this
Imagine its heavily in the prototype stage, given running it means they cant run with the "monkey seat"

Shows how far away from the rest of the field they are to be spending development time working on something so innocuous.

That looks brilliant I saw a shot of somebody holding it the other day and thought... "that looks MASSIVE", and it is!
Sound has proper grown on me, and FOM coverage has improved massively from Aus with regards to the sound levels (watch the grand prix replay back to back with a recent one).
Leave it, they sound fine.
