    Is it just me who thinks that a closed cockpit would suffocate a driver really easily, if it was in say a. a hot location, long race with a tough, physical track. Surely the only way they get fresh air at the moment is because they're driving in an open-environment. 

    That or just stick some Red-arrows type helmets on em. 

    That's a good point, I hadn't thought of that. Unless they have little windows on each side. I guess it's a bit of a similar situation to the LMP1 cars. I guess they get their fresh air from the windows, or do they have some air pipe?

    One last point I'd like to make on that - Vettel has had less track time than Ricciardo so you have to take that into consideration.

    Sorry, but you do realise that Sebastian Vettel is a 4 time world champion, ranked equal 3rd on the all time championship winners list, with 39 wins, 64 podiums, 45 poles and 23 fastest laps? We're over half way through the season now so Vettel should be completely used to the cars now. That's a frankly ridiculous point and that makes no difference to my thoughts. 

    Daniel Ricciardo has been in F1 for two years at, lets be honest, a lower midfield team and now he's come into Vettel's back yard and Dan is really making Seb look rather average to be quite honest. Yes Vettel has had his times where he has been better (Malaysia, today) but that's expected of a four time world champion. 

    At the half way stage of the season Ricciardo has had 4 podiums compared to 2 for Vettel (should be 5 to 2), one win compared to none, he's got better qualifying positions for the majority of this season, against the man they say is a qualifying master, and he's got more points, so he's above him in the championship. Ricciardo is doing a stellar job this season and I really hope he beats Vettel at the end of the season, because he completely deserves it.


  3. I have managed to pass 100 'LOL's on the new forum. I want to thank everyone who has supported me over the last three months, your support has been amazing. Also to my family, who have always believed in me, I'm sure they're very proud right now, and of course my team, their sponsors, my sponsors, my manager. This is one of the greatest moments of my life and I'm on a massive high at the moment, so I'm gonna try and take each week on its own and that work will hopefully pay off at the end of the season. 


  4. Probably being able to not procrastinate. I wish I could get home and just get on with the work, and I would be finished in two hours to enjoy the evening, but there's always something much better to do. What if I've missed a cool YouTube video? Ooh, I should just check out Twitter? What if I've missed a new F1 game announcement (although I probably won't miss that as it looks like it's never gonna be announced... :p )?


  5. In other news, I'm going karting tomorrow with a couple of mates to Rogue Racing in Aylesbury. They've got an adult fun day which is £45 for 5 hours, and that includes a minimum of 5x 15 min sessions on track, pizza, and generally great fun. Can't wait. I haven't raced on the track there for about 4 years but it's such a great track. 

    Here's an on board video if you want to have a look...

  6. Well I'm currently feeling slightly pissed off. I'm going away to Italy with a music group next week and I'm not getting back til next Thursday (31st) and that means I'm gonna miss the Hungarian GP! I thought it was on the week after, but no, I'm gonna have to wait 5 days til I watch it!

    First of all I would like to thank every single OT member who helped me out with my girl problems. I am extremely pleased to tell you all that we are no longer friends but lovers now :) Yes, we are a couple now. I did it, after 1.5 years off hardships, struggles, problems after problems I finally did it. Never stopped believing. I feel like the happiest man in the world today :)

    Finally!  <3


  8. I can actually see this championship being quite successful. I'm going to be watching every race I'm sure, and they've got some great locations, such as Monaco, London and Rio. I can't wait for it to start. It's odd seeing on boards though with no engine sounds, just wind. I hope they have some decent broadcasting too. I guess they'll have something similar to F1 with the world feed which the channels then show. Hopefully there'll be cool graphics, rotating on board cameras, etc


  9. I wake up at 07:10 and eat breakfast, shower, etc, I leave the house at 07:50 for a lift to school, arrive there at about 08:10. Then I have school which ends at 15:40, so I get the bus home normally, arrive home at about 16:15. Then I get changed, and I've realised that I cannot concentrate at all for an hour after I get home, so I relax for an hour by going on the computer and doing forum, social media, news, etc. Then I have dinner and at about 18:30 I do any homework (usually loads) and I finish that at 21:30 normally, and then I relax for an hour and a half and go to bed at 23:00.

    But I've finished school for Summer now so it's just all relax time!!


  10. I'm normally pretty pleased with forum improvements, but I'm finding a lot of faults with the new posting system.

    It's good that it's easier to post from a tablet or mobile, but first of all, I'm getting double line breaks when I hit 'enter' on my keyboard, which is annoying when it comes to making a list, like in the Predictor game.

    Also, the font when typing your post is Times New Roman, yet when you submit it, it turns to Arial. There is no way of changing font either, so it would be nice to have some other fonts. I really think Verdana would suit this forum. It's easier to read than Arial or Times New Roman and it looks good too.

    I also think some of the icons could be clearer. I think the 'Attatch Image' icon should be changed to an image icon instead of a file, and the 'URL' button isn't clear either. Also, when you click on 'Toggle full page' on the right hand side, you cannot see the icons on the full screen. You can only see them by hovering over them.
