MelvinYeo said:A lot more safer.
Keane16 said:Who is your favourite driver pjaya?
Keane16 said:Senna seems to be everyone's favourite these days, personally, since Irvine retired I haven't had a real favourite, but Montoya is the only one who gets the blood up during a race, and that I like. Mick is obviously the best though.
pjaya said:pity mick retire early. Or we could see some good fight between him and shummi.
ahh... the old days. Irvine and JV (they do make a good couple eh! )
Keane16 said:Melvyn loves boring.
MelvinYeo said:No I don't
Give me the Nelson Piquet manouveres the Nigel Mansell manouveres any day any time rather than Juankers reckless driving
Keane16 said:wouldya go on - those two were as reckless as anyone on the grid. Plus the increased safety and reduced sportsmanship of todays racing means those two would be banned every five minutes nowadays. Piquet was even a cnut off track too.
MelvinYeo said:And with the increased safety Juanker still manages to smash into somebody every 5 minutes!
Keane16 said:er...its because of the increased safety that he is able to have such a direct robust style of driving. Mansell and co. would have been a lot worse IMO, but there was a greater fear for ones safety back in the 70's and 80's.
MelvinYeo said:Juanker doesn't overtake with thegusto of Piquet Mansell, he is lucky of the safety because 90% of the time when he overtakes he takes out another driver
1. Class, exciting. Neither which Juanker hasKeane16 said:1. Define 'gusto'
2.
Keane16 said:Yep, he is one boring driver.
Unlike Fireball.
MelvinYeo said:Well if you define exciting by accidents and taking someone with ya, yeh Juankers sure exciting
Keane16 said:Its certainly part of exciting. Just point out to me, if you can, the 90% of times you claim that Montoya has taken out another driver while overtaking. Oh, wait, you won't be able to.
He puts himself in positions where it is possible to overtake, sometimes not in accepted positions. The reality is that for everytime Montoya has made a mistake (running wide even, not taking out another car), he has also made stunning moves that no one else makes or is even able to make. Thats what I call exciting.
MelvinYeo said:You give me a list of Juanker's decent 'overtaking' moves and I'd list the times where'd he took out another guy.
MelvinYeo said:If he puts another driver's safety under threat like so often he does, that's not exciting, if I was 30 yards back from the car in front and approcaching a car in front and a tight corner coming up, I would not go for the gap and lunge down the inside. Juanker would and probably put himself and the other driver out of the race.
Keane16 said:You do realise that for every time a give you a Montoya overtake, you have to give me 9 instances of where he took another car off. Are you sure you want to proceed?
Your 'probably' is actually a 'maybe', which applies to all things.
MelvinYeo said:Alrigth then.
Go on, name your first Juanker overtaking manouvere that does not involve touching, smashing, or taking out the other car.
Keane16 said:Nothing wrong with touching.
The big one, v. Mick at Interlagos.
I await your 9.
MelvinYeo said:There is wrong with touching, it's indecent then.
OK
1. Nurburgring takes out Ralf and Da Matta(da Matta indirectly)
2. Indy 02 Takes out Ralf at start
3. Nurburgring 03 he spins out M$
4. Malaysia 02 he goes round the outside of M$ and clips M+$ front wing
OK maybe 9 is too much I only can remember 4 off the top of my head
Keane16 said:Seems like even 4 is too much.
Your point 2 is rubbish, Ralf made a balls of that all by himself, he was intimidated by Montoya, but that just shows how crappy Ralf is on occasion.
Your point 3 is rubblish too. He went around the outside of Mick, catching him by surprise, there was contact, but nothing untoward. Mick was surprised and got a fright basically. The stewards didn't have a problem, and tellingly, neither did Mick.
MelvinYeo said:Both were at fault for point 2, for not allowing enough room so......
Ross Brawn had someting to say about point 3. Called Juanker unprofessional.
Keane16 said:So you agree with me basically. I don't care about Ross Brawn's opinion on the incident at the Nurburgring, he was universally slatted for getting the wrong end of the stick and I reckon even Mick was a bit embarassed by that little outburst.
As for them both being at fault and not enough room, thats different from your original take on it.
pjaya said:just a question, does anyone think F1's boring because of shummi/ferrari dominance? if boring then what will you think if United kept on winning PL/CL every year starting from 2005 to 2011? will you think it's boring?
anyway I always reckon JPM behaviour similar the arse wanker! do you think so?
MelvinYeo said:totally different prospect imo.
I do not support M$, I support United, so I would not like the former but would like the latter.
Juanker is a wanker.
End of.
