The Bahrain GP. Sato had to stop 6 times!. Once again, another case of a drivers race being ruined, because the fuelling rig didn't work.

Probably to be expected from a rookie team-they've done very well just to get on the grid.

And without Minardi this year I am supporting them-so come on Suzuki!

I think they have done a good job so far. But the point I was trying to make was that, these damned fuelling rigs are spolling races

They have done since they were bought in and they will continue to do so until re-fueling is stopped

I don't think that refuelling will be banned in the near future :) Send a letter to Mr Mosley in protest!

Super Aguri are doing very well considering they have crap fdacilities and have only been a team for several months. They aren't doing much worse than Minardi did. Sato is even doing a half-decent job too! I suppose the fact he is in a slow car means he can't cause quite as much chaos.

I've been watching Motorsport Memory cpg. And despite winning the British F3 title, he cause a bit of mayhem in that too

Very unlikely, I think the days of cars being loaded with 200 litres of fuel is long gone. After seeing incidents like Peterson, Lauda, Berger and Suzuki, I can't say I'm entirely unhappy....

I'm not saying I think he's any good, but Sato has done better than I expected.

I still think he'll chuck the car into a wall at Monaco though!

So you'd prefer 4000+ litres lying about the pitlane then Norbert, where there are more people and more possibilities of a Verstappen or Rosberg happening

There has to be some sense, The most sensible is to have the fuel in the car, or get rid of the boxes aove the pit lane

As a fan of Taku I have to point out another fine performance in Melbourne!

<bow>

I have always supported him for the entertainment value but today he was not only quick (given the car) but managed not to hit anything either when there was plenty of opportunity.

Also interesting to note his fastest lap was only 0.9 behind that Portuguese bloke in the MFI.

<clap>


Unfortunately Ide struggled.
He has had practically no run in time and Melbourne is a tricky track as the Ferrari drivers demonstrated <doh>

But I doubt he will find Imola any easier.... <no>

Super Aguri deserve credit because they are no slower than Minardi were last year, and Sato is proving everyone that thinks he is useless wrong! Ide is struggling at times but he hasn;t had that much experience in F1 cars so he should improve as the season goes on.
