It would at least show on replays/onboards when the drivers are using it.I'm not sure what to think about Bernie, on the one hand he makes a lot of questionable dicisions, but on the other I dont think f1 would be the same without him, he brings a lot of character.

I've also heard that he isn't going to appoint a successor and wants to die on the job, so better sooner than later, I say. - I guess it is harsh, but I’ve been surfing these various forums and F1 sites for a while and I’ve seen nothing but indignation for the way Bernie has been running it.

In fairly equal cars, when push comes to shove, I think Kubica is behind the likes of Alonso, the 2008 mature Massa, Kimi, Vettel and Hamilton.I'd be very happy if he proved me wrong. (It's always good for me to to learn and have my views changed by experience!)I agree, BMW probably haven't shown their full hand. Not sure if their hand, when shown, will be full enough for WCC/WDC titles! Gut feeling is they are a top 4 rather than a top 2 team at the moment.

Has James got any insight on this, as everything would of been better with James on the mic still .... We need it in the rpm graphics like TC used to be maybe.... Bit harsh about bernie, i like him i do,really cheeky,He(Bernie) will have you put on the hit list for saying those things I agree about the commentators dealing with kers.

Maybe James can give us a clue on this one.

Hope that was a qualy run. It will do Lewis good if he is in a slow car. Also Heikki is much slower than Lewis, and I know that it isn't the drivers difference...have McLaren made Lewis a car and not Heikki? I am not a McLaren fan, just curious. Hope that was a qualy run.

Hope we can tell moves like Alonso on Schuy and Kimi on Fisi Japan 05 from other moves that were simple.

Button did 12 laps before a gremlin got him, expect him to do alot of mileage tomorrow. The fact he did an 18.892 at the start of a race simulation is quite incredible and testament to the potential speed of the Brawn GP car. I don't quite understand how they have lost their advantage already? What advantage? This is testing, we do not know true pace until Quali of Round 1 but Brawn appear to be very much at the front for now. Clackers, don’t worry!
