Williams a shot at podium in Monza?

NO1SPECIAL · 2 Sep 2005, 10:14 (Ref:1397159)

Guys has the usual williams late-season resurgence snuck up on us?? No one ever believes it till it happens but Webber's testing times at Monza....well who knows?

Menelaos · 2 Sep 2005, 10:47 (Ref:1397183)

No, they can't be faster than the Renaults. Not to mention McLarens. But of course there's always the possibility that both McLarens will have to retire and then maybe someone else could see how the world looks from the podium...

FPV GTHO · 2 Sep 2005, 10:48 (Ref:1397184)

They wont get there by themselves, thats for sure.

NO1SPECIAL · 2 Sep 2005, 11:43 (Ref:1397223)

ok i forgot the qualy slots but williams seem to have improved relative to bar and toyota...and fisi's only a 50/50 shot to finish without a problem...

Stargazer7 · 2 Sep 2005, 12:12 (Ref:1397252)

I just expect another dissapointment by Williams - BMW

WebberForWDC · 2 Sep 2005, 12:29 (Ref:1397265)

That's a shame..

Bugger a podium, it's time for a win!

Renault can have excessive tyre wear and McLaren can rely on their usually design standards of let's trim the part by 25% for the fun of it

, delivering a happy 1-2 for the team from Grove.

Menelaos · 2 Sep 2005, 13:23 (Ref:1397302)

I'd be delighted with a nice 2-3 for BMW, if Kimi wins and the other three cars fall to pieces

Friday practice, not all cars running...

Do you believe 7 day weather forecasts? To early to tell anything!

Raglanparade · 2 Sep 2005, 13:35 (Ref:1397310)

Ill drop my shorts and run naked around Albert Park next year if Webber gets on the podium at Monza.

i was referring to the Monza TESTING times, and early practice seems to be confirming this

I British lad made a similar bet in regards to McLaren winning a race last year, with disastrous results. Your a brave man Jason.

Indeed, he did a lap in the nude at this years British GP, the proceeds all going to TOMMYs charity courtesy of R Dennis.

Please watch your language, this is a family forum!

NO1SPECIAL · 2 Sep 2005, 14:42 (Ref:1397361)

oh crumbs...sorry..meant pasty white bottom

Louis B. · 2 Sep 2005, 15:05 (Ref:1397381)

Back to business, IMO, Williams' apparent excellent pace at Monza is just one more indication of what many members of this forum do not like to hear: Again this year, Williams have a poorly designed car powered by a powerful engine. This has been a constant problem since Newey left.

The pace of the Mclarens is again amazing (i.e. irrespective of the track). What a shame they didn't fix their reliability problems a couple of race earlier as this would have given us an exciting end of season for the WDC title.

F1_KING · 2 Sep 2005, 15:16 (Ref:1397389)

webbers starting early on the qualifying grid cos he didnt complete the last gp, so that could hurt his chances of a podium. that qualifying rule is stupid

FPV GTHO · 3 Sep 2005, 04:50 (Ref:1397703)

with the high speeds, the lack of grip from starting early shouldnt hurt as much hopefully.

flor · 3 Sep 2005, 07:13 (Ref:1397734)

BTW Pizzonia will replace Heidfeld this weekend, he is still suffering from his crash during testing.

BootsOntheSide · 3 Sep 2005, 08:29 (Ref:1397763)

Nick would have been running early in qualifying anyway, so the only real disadvantage is that Antonio is the less capable driver in theory, If he's fast wnough to get points, who knows what Webber can do? Good laps on Friday aren't always conclusive.

Menelaos · 3 Sep 2005, 09:05 (Ref:1397777)

...especially for Webber

Where have I seen this before?

Hmmmm....

Joe Taylor · 3 Sep 2005, 22:24 (Ref:1398215)

After seeing qualifying today, I think that Jason is fairly safe
