    While I can certainly appreciate great photography, to me it just seems like an overhyped retro idea coming back to popularity and being over-used. It shouldn't be used for every shot, and most REAL professionals have several cameras and several setups ready for particular events, so I would hope the guys who took these took some other pictures without this overused feature. The first picture was good because it had the people focused as I'm guessing the photographer intended, but SOME of the shots after made it seemed over-used and completely unnecessary. I'm no professional hell I wouldn't even say I'm an amateur but listening to my dad about photography for decades gives me some ability to critique. And if it doesn't then I give myself the right dammit.

    However, this bottle was not marked `poison,' so Jenson ventured to taste it, and finding it very nice, (it had, in fact, a sort of mixed flavour of cough syrup, grenadine, and sweat) he very soon finished off the entire can of Red Bull.


    `What a curious feeling!' said Jenson; `I must be shutting up like a telescope.' And so it was indeed: he was now only ten inches high.

    @Ash78: Nice. Very literary. Charles Lutwidge Dodgso (aka Lewis Carrol) died in 1898, so he never got to enjoy F1. I like to think he would have liked it. Especially the Mosley/Ecclestone era with all it's bizarreness.

    Meanwhile... Max Mosley is in his secret lair with his Nazi Hooker aides.


    Max: "Damn them! That Orosz didn't get a single picture of me in Tilt Shift. This is my last year! I need to be remembered for something!"


    Nazi Hooker #1:"We can take care of the Crazy Euro Car Boy..."


    Nazi Hooker #2: "Yes, we will make him scream..."

    I don't see Barichello hanging it up any time soon. It's my guess that Rubens will win a few races before end of the season.


    Frankly I'm shocked that Brawn have been as good as they have been.


    But I gotta say, you know they'd still be rubbish if they were still running Honda motors.

    Seems pretty simple to me, Rubens has 3 clear choices -


    1. Start going faster than Jenson (Jenson's out qualified him 4 out of 5 races). Both drivers were likely on equal standing at the beginning of the season until Jenson established a clear lead in the points.


    2.Continue complaining, don't make it to 300 races and watch Bruno Senna compete in his seat next year.


    3. Quit and join his mates (Kannan and Castroneves) in IRL.

    This is how athletes behave. They're competitive and self-absorbed by nature. If Rubens were a baseball player he'd be demanding a trade. Think of it as Rubens being Manny.

    @dr.chophoppers coz mr. wont cut it: You got one right here. Most Brazilians don't want to talk about him because the Brazilian media (specifically Globo TV, the source of all evil in the world) made them think he's always the whiny pilot that can't win and he's bad. It got worse right after that Schumacher victory in the video. They mocked him when he cried after his first victory. Later he said at that moment he remembered that his father sold their car (a Fiat 147) and almost broke just to pay for him to run. I think he's a much better person and driver than Massa. Massa thinks he's the best there is, there's no one in F1 so full of himself. I doubt he would have better results if he was in the position Barrichello was during the Schumacher era.
