Hampus> I think the orange button in that picture you posted sums up your post, it was definitely FAIL. What's really bizarre is you've not only constructed a straw-man argument but you've done so with something you fabricated not something I said, its like you're now having an argument with yourself in a mirror. I made no reference to 'multi 21', if we take your picture as an example its clear that does not go up to 21 and for such a control to go up to 20+ digits the rotary would either be very large or the spaces between the settings so small as to make it extremely difficult to select a setting with complete confidence. They use codes to try and stop other teams working out what they are doing, I don't know why you don't understand that? As Dan said it was discussed by Martin Brundle on Sky and if anyone would have an educated guess his would be the one that would carry more weight with me, not some self proclaimed forum "F1 Statistics Guru". Martin also discussed the team dynamic at Mercedes and strongly suggested that it was Hamilton who was no.1 there and that he would be very surprised if he wasn't as he went into negotiations holding the trump cards - again ,not gospel but with his experience as a driver and driver manager dealing with contract negotiations its his opinion that would carry more weight than a forum "F1 Statistics Guru". I didn't say they were not unhappy after the race I said it was all nicely done with PR, no real emotion, statements made via the nice smoothing effect of the PR filter. There are no characters anymore, the closest we have is Kimi Räikkönen. I'm really not going to carry on discussing this with you as you've become irrational and quite emotional. I've posted my opinion, so I'm done now and have no need to get into a pointless debate with a keyboard warrior who can't handle anyone having an opinion different to his. Enjoy your evening.
Ooh lots of things here.
It's all pantomime, they used codes to make the orders when anyone with a bit of knowledge of F1 would know what is going to happen in situations like that,
You claim they used codes for something as simple as saying "stay in your place"
Again it doesn´t make any sense.
Or will you deny it´s about Multi 21?
Regarding the button. Yes it´s true, it looks like it has 10 faces.
But it could work in conjuction with another button. Like the one on the left side.
And "F1 Statistics Guru" was
not done by me. One day i had that line so you can´t really claim it´s self-proclaimed.
Martin knows sh*t in reality because he´s not a RBR employee. You know sh*t as well and you make claims based on thin air and there´s nothing except news articles that would suggest Multi 21 is a code for finishing as intended.
"no real emotion" Ahh that´s nice, now you know them personally as well.
They are watched by millions on TV, drivers get heat for swearing, did you expect webber to punch him in the face? Get real.
Not sure how you got "emotion" and "Kimi" in the same sentence as well.
Lots of talk but no walk. As usual.
Same with the contract. "I read an article therefore it is the truth".
Maybe you forgot that Rosberg overtook Hamilton several times but got re-overtaken as many times.
If he had been any smarter he would have overtaken at the
second DRS zone and would have finished in front of Hamilton.
But he kept trying and trying and trying and eventually Brawn told them to stop and finish the race.
Just like Red Bull did, the difference was Rosberg respected his teams decision.
You are the one calling names, and is clearly upset, maybe it´s because you at the end of the day have nothing to back up your claims with.
It would definitely explain the frantic wall of text you have given me.
