[kenshin]

bring back sato san

Do F1 cars have neutral? If they do, he could have used neutral and coasted through to the finish instead of locking up.

[ECU-MAN]

thats what I thought as well

looks like hydraulics control everything

even in nuetral the cant push a car that has a blown gearbox

[jdm_kid]

he hit special vtec yO!

[aaronng]

Blown gearbox yeah, because the gearbox is directly driven by the wheels. But if it is the engine that fails, there is the clutch between the gearbox and the engine. I think there is, because I've seen them push the car forwards and backwards into the garage while the engine is still running (on TV of course ).

[TYPE-ONE]

i think button is a pussy. he doesnt drive aggresively enough. thats why he always gets shuffled down the order.

aaahaha...jenson....was robbed.... bloody unreliable honda's !!!

[underc35a]

its better not to cross the finish line so next race we get a new engine without the 10 grid penalty

[ECU-MAN]

no hydraulics, then no nuthing,
but in the regulations I think its mandatory that they must be able to select N so the stewarts can push the car,

I guess it all happens so fast, it was over before he relised it happen.

what I dont understand, why arnt they right up Alonzo'z ass when the pace car pulls in, he just pulls away.

[kenshin]

wasnt this button's 2nd race on this engine neway??
