That must've been a Murray Walkerism

Shows what 3 days of coverage does to you

And there is no break so expect more at the Nurburgring

NO!!

Un- Ausralian activities carry the immediate penalty of deportation to Kurdistan, with no F1 coverage available. You are expected to blindly support Webber, chop down Tall Poppies, and put the boot in to Schuey when he is down. The black van with the 4 very big blokes should be pulling up outside now. Have a look out the window, and a last look around at that which you hold precious. Pack a jumper

Have you been at the Wodka, again SGD

Nick had a dream run, letting Webber use up his vehicle and tyres pressuring Alonso. Then the team stuffed Webbers chances and he had to drive the ring out of the thing to make up ground. When Alonso,'s tyres were stuffed, Nick sailed past him. Webber had used up a lot more rubber and it was a much more impressive display when he passed Alonso TWICE.
Drive of the day? Montoya, for positions gained. Kimi for blowing every body to the boondocks, Alonso for doing Ralfs usual job of being a mobile chicane, Webber for applying sustained CLEAN pressure

ok I see It is indeed selective memory:
...Absolutely Forgot 1st pistop... NH waiting behind MW...

"letting Webber use up his vehicle and tyres pressuring Alonso."
don't make me laught!! going behind & pressuring Alonso he only could SAVE tyres and fuel!!!!! didn't you see those lap times? again selective memory? Please don't be so blind!!
btw NK also was pressuring Alonso... but for much less time, WHY????

BECAUSE HE OVERTOOK HIM!!!!!!!!!!!
only after that your SuperWebber tried 3 times only to do it cutting the corner. while NH did it CLEAN in hist FIRST attempt!!!! that was blood good!!
as i said before: Nick - driver of the race, giving Webber lessosn on how to overtake (although Webber after 3 attempts couldn't do it as beautiful as Nick!!)

n.b:Webber did his BEST 1st sector on the last lap... think about it...

Might be an idea to read the team statements, SGD

I already read that.
do you mean about that Webber said :"once Nick had got ahead of Fernando he made it very difficult for me into the chicane." ???

this is all your arguments???

what about your "letting Webber use up his vehicle and tyres pressuring Alonso" when ALL say that going behind him was SAVING engine, tyres and fuel?
that is just like your explanation on why Rubens outquelif. MShumierda on Sat.Q....

you'd better answer to my post... or vote Nick as driver of the race...

Wow look what I've found here: http://www.planetf1.com/features/race_f ... 9635.shtml

Overtaking Move Of The Race
Lap 71 Nick Heidfeld, BMW-Williams on Alonso
Considering Monaco is a place where you can’t overtake Nick made the most superb overtaking move coming out of the tunnel to get past Alonso.

Television cameras tend to straighten out the road there which curves down to the chicane, but Nick spotted his moment and came very late up the inside of Alonso – who is NOT an easy man to overtake.

When Heidfeld made the lunge, you felt certain that he hadn’t left enough braking distance and that the BMW-Williams would go sliding, slithering on over the chicane. In fact he got the car stopped and turned in neatly – it was a beautiful thing to watch. Textbook.

you read that??? TEXTBOOK!! and how was looking at that from just behind???
