"Everyone wants Webber (but not me, really, we don't want him)" - Flavio.
I don't understand the dislike for RBR. I don't think they're any worse than any of the other manufacturer teams are. Red Bull has a steady backing of basically every type of…
I assume you mean FIA banned mass dampers, which they've already taken back. The FIA makes it really hard to trust their fairness when they do things like that.
Ferrari is losing Brawn, and possibly Schumacher, and who knows how many others if Schu…
I don't see why no one will at least test him. His Champ Car wins and championships don't mean much because it's been such a weak series lately, but he's still obviously talented and deserves at least a test. Wheldon too, for that matter, but that's…
Alonso is a class act, and that quote is out of context. If they asked him something like "What do you think of Mark Webber," that's what he'd say. If he just said out of the blue that Webber will be one of his key rivals, he's apparently forgetting…
Based on all personal accounts I've seen, most of them seem pretty nice when you meet them in real life, even if they seem likes asses on TV. I doubt Webber is any different. He just seems overly cocky about his abilities outwardly.
Who has he beat…
I guess this is a useless fight, since it's a Minardi forum and there seem to be many Australians here, which means most here would like to sleep with Webber and have his children.
The fact is, Webber will never be a championship driver unless he f…
Webber is highly overrated. But if I remember correctly, I've already had this argument.
Personally, I hope he gets screwed and gets no ride, but that obviously won't happen. I sure as hell hope he doesn't go to Renault, or I'll have to burn that R…
I would have been extremely cautious if I were JV here. If Kubica comes out and races as good as he practices, then JV's injury very well may end his F1 career. Kind of sad really, the only season in his recent history that he shouldn't be dropped a…
I don't understand the Midland hate. Not just here, but everywhere. They've been getting better and better all season, and the rumor that they aren't trying doesn't seem to be true at all. They've got two talented drivers, although Albers and Monte…
I like Albers, I really like all of Midland in general. Sometimes he needs to think before he speaks, like when he said Doornbos didn't help the team all of last season, but he's extremely underrated on the track, as is Monteiro.
It doesn't make sense. I'm not a cycling fan, I really don't care at all, but if you look at everything, it seems like a random result and a complete anomaly.
Lack of Tom Petty on ANY list really confuses and pisses me off. And this list appears to be only one album per band, so it's flawed in that way. The Beatles, for example, probably had more than one album that changed music, and I've never liked Sgt…
It's impossible to tell how good it is based on looking at it. All of them look basically the same anyway. The big difference isn't the aero anyway, they had updated the aero on the old car pretty damn good, it's what's under the body that's been up…
Williams have been a disappointment, but Webber still seems to be all potential, and he's got to reach that sometime, no matter what team he's with. It reminds me a lot of Fisichella, who was always considered quick, but was always in bad cars. And,…
I've never heard anyone say he wasn't a good blocker, anyone who has ever said that is obviously not watching the same races as I am.
Where has he lost a podium, other than Monaco? I said the car has reliability problems, but he hasn't been running…
And it's not Nico that's the problem, it's Webber. He's underperformed both seasons there, and has shown no consistent signs of being good at anything but blocking. It's Nico's first season, give him some time. The aero isn't very good, but whenever…

Oh yes - they want to lose people. The Mexican govt hands out books - cartoon books - detailing (as much as a cartoon book can detail) how to get over the border, how to get work which groups will help you etc etc.
But i…
Still, the Mexican's goals are different than Hezbollah's. They want to come here because it's better, they don't come here to kidnap our soldiers. The way they do it is wrong, but it's hard to fault them. It's not as if the Mexican government WANTS…
Hell, with how preoccupied the U.S. is right now, you never know how temporary it is. There are still troops there though, and they should be able to handle that. The Taliban is much weaker than they used to be, it can't be as hard of a fight as it …
The war was won in Iraq, the way I see it, now it's a different war. It's a culture war. It was plainly obvious to everyone but the U.S. government that a democracy in a country containing 2/3 factions that hate each other was never going to work. T…
Factycrab - I don't think any of this was pre-planned. Naturally, the U.S. government would want more control of the oil supply because of how important it is to the economy, but I don't think there was a plan to try to conquer nations in the Middle…
But there's still North Korea. WW2 was not all about the Nazis, that didn't affect Japan at all. If they get their nuclear technology done, they could either try to use it anc catch everyone off-guard, or they could sell it to some group in the Midd…
It's a bit short-sighted to think it's just between Israel and Syria. For one, it's never a two-country war in the Middle East, and Israel is like the US's child, it seems. They got more than $2 billion in military help from the U.S. last year. If t…
One, that would never happen. Two, the U.S. doesn't back Hamas or Hezbolah. Three, the U.S. is not sworn to destroy Canada.
And, yeah, Canada is more reasonable than Israel, but people can actually reason with the U.S. to begin with, and the Middle…
Sounds a bit too much like a conspiracy theory to me. I seriously doubt they told Materazzi, "Go make fun of his mother and sister," and they couldn't have expected Zidane to do anything like that. Really, because of his experience and how important…
"The one who is really guilty must be punished." - Zidane
I don't care what Materazzi said, they're both guilty. Zidane also said "I am a man before anything else," but I have to disagree, because men can control themselves and handle things in the…
