Mini giggs is no fool, he just used a poor comparison. Wen it comes to F1 e has a good knowledge of the sport, and as made some interesting points in the past.

Well no actually I dont think it was a bad comparison at all.......that twat was saying that Eddie Irvine out shone DC when he was at Ferarri yet they were both in different cars.
What am saying is if yer gonna say that then you may aswell say that DC outshone Irvine when he was at Jaguar (meaning you cant say this either coz again they are both racing for different teams).

So explain as to why that was a bad comparison.

best thing you can do is take your foot out of your mouth and try and make a reasonable point.

'twat'.

Anyone coming out with the rubbish you have, cannot have 'a good knowledge' of the sport. It's an idiotic statement to try and back up your idiotic assertions.

Explain to me how a McLaren compares to a Jaguar in relation to how a McLaren compares to a Ferrari. Simply telling me that they are different cars is....well, embarassing to be honest.
 
Look Dave, You cannot ralistic ly copmpare Mclaren to jaguar, because in comparison the Jag is a crap car, However whhen comparing thhe 99 Ferrari, to the 99 Mclarne, they were very similar, and about as good as each other. Thats why ypou used a bad example. Now do your self a favour and quit this argument before you make an even bigger fool of yourself.

I know thats what am saying......dont you two get it????

How can you compare the 99 Ferrari to the 99 McClaren? The McClaren was far better than the Ferrari. Just like the Ferrari is far better than the McClaren now.

:lol:
 
The 99 Mclaren was not far superior to the ferrari. Yes it was the slightly faster car, but it was also very unreliable, and thus caused a number of retirements.

I understand what your trying to say, but it dosnt really make sense as the differnece is no were near the scale of the difference between the Mclaren and the Jaguar was.

Dave just quit now, your nor going to win this argument.
 
I see that Williams, are giving Davidson and JHiedfeld a test session in a few weeks. Still ope DC gets the seat, but if he doesnt id rather see Davidson in it, because we need more thhan 1 Brit in F1.

Is that another one from that piss take website?
What do you have aganist DC. He's a good driver, and Britain should be pleased to have him.
 
David Coulthard is considering driving for free if Williams give a chance to stay in F1.

Coulthard is currently without a team after McLaren opted to end their nine-year relationship and instead signed Juan Pablo Montoya to partner Kimi Raikkonen in 2005.

The Scot, though, doesn't want the end of his McLaren stint to be finale of his F1 career as well and has spent the past few months vigorously pursuing other teams.

His latest target, and perhaps also his last, is the Williams team as they have one seat available.

And if Williams, who DC drove for in 1994, sign him to be Mark Webber's 2005 team-mate, the Scot says they don't have to pay him for races where he fails to score any points.

"I'm not interested in a nice fat retainer because cash is not an issue," he told ESPN. "I just want to keep on racing."

"I am prepared to drive for free and to be paid only on results - bonus money on the points I score for the team."

"I don't want it to be seen as a desperate or sad attempt to stay in the sport but I'm prepared to go for that sort of deal because I'm totally confident I can deliver results."

"My performances have been stronger than people give me credit for.

"Maybe the time has come to blow my own trumpet. There are guys in line for a Williams drive who have achieved nothing compared to my record."

"All the stats go in my favour and the hunger and motivation are still there.

"That's why I find it perplexing that I am having to lobby so hard to lay out my stall and show I still want to do it."

No, that was a real email from McLaren!

He was a decent pedaller, now he's rubbish and trying to hang in there past his sell by date. Anyone can see that.

Looking at Melvyn's post, it's obvious he has a very inflated sense of how he is perceived.

How can that be? He implies in the report that he knows people think he's underachieved.
 
"My performances have been stronger than people give me credit for.

That suggests that people have the oppinion that he hasntbeen as good, as he actually has been
