From what I saw, Sutil's passes were pretty clean. Agressive, but still clean. He noticed that Alonso liked to take the wide entry into the hairpin and took full advantage by diving in the inside while maintaining control. I'll admit it was close but he still pulled it off. Perez had no control both times he dove in…

There's a reason Kimi has a such a long points streak. He didn't get there by driving like Perez. He would have NOT done the same move if the roles were reversed. I'm impressed Kimi was able to evade Perez's first attack where Kimi had to resort to cutting the chicane. Perez was so deep into the first part of the…
Agreed. He came from too far back and carried too much speed into the corner and braked too late. He tried the exact same move earlier on in the race and Kimi had nowhere to go and had to resort to cutting the chicane. Perez himself barely made the corner.
Anyone who sides with Perez with regards to this incident is an idiot in my opinion. After this race, there were three world champions (Kimi, Alonso, and Button) complaining about his overly aggressive driving. He needs to calm the fuck down. The fact that he's even blaming Kimi at all is despicable. I thought he…
From what I heard from a friend of mine who owned an IS 350 with a 6-speed, the gearbox was terrible anyways.
Well I just took my brother and parents in a road trip from Toronto to Harrisburg, PA and then to Somerset, NJ and then back again in my E39 530i. Myself and my dad are 6'3" and my brother is 6'7" and we were all quite comfortable. Car comes with dual zone climate control and cruise control. Thank goodness I got the…
I agree. I guess I wouldn't spend the 80K to begin with for an individualized M3. I'd be content with a regular M3. The performance is really all I'm after.
Good point. Regardless, he's handling the situation pretty maturely and uncharacteristically of a typical BMW owner (read: douchebag) and that alone I can appreciate that.
While I can empathize for the guy since it is an individual program and all, I can't relate as to why he wants everything to be so specific. All I'd be after is the chassis and powertrain combination and possibly a few options here and there.
I agree. I remember reading somewhere that BMW also showed some interest in returning to F1 considering the switch to turbo engines and the fact that BMW's lineup only consists of turbocharged vehicles with the exception of the remaining 3-series coupes and M3s.
Maybe if they pick up a good driver in the next two years, they'll have a chance at doing well. Button is too composed and Perez is the exact opposite. They need someone who performs on a consistent basis. DiResta sounds like an excellent candidate.
I hope it'll be more of a last resort kind of feature, similar to Honda's Collision Mitigation Bracking System (CMBS). It'll brake HARD at the very last second to avoid a collision. I believe Jeremy Clarkson did a segment on it with a Honda Accord Wagon.
While I agree with your last point, not everyone spends hours working on their cars. I do. But you and I are in the minority. The average Joe won't even bother checking his oil level let alone do an oil change. This technology is very good for everyday people. It's a shame there are so few gearheads out there.
"Good god! He's even uglier in person!"
Honda CRZ. 2670 lbs and 122 HP (combined). Thanks to all that battery weight.
One would think getting hit by a train would involve serious injuries.
Cock face? Nice. Could you at least see why I was under the impression that you hadn't read the article? If you read the article prior to posting your first comment, maybe you should've put a disclaimer at the bottom of your post indicating that you read the article and just wanted to make "an obvious statement" so as…
Lol somebody didn't read the article.
Hopefully it's just the Juan Jose.
