Your a spoiler and you dont even know it.

Its almost hopeless to try, I missed a recorded race a few months ago,didnt read the paper, watch the news let alone speed chanel, a didnt pull up Fchat Etc. My son was watching a soccer game on TV and one of the commentators for whatever reason gave the results up.

 

So do not leave the tapes there for so long, watch it as soon as you wake up

I usually do not have that problem with F1, but I do with soccer. There is no way to stop information to reach you other that isolating yourself in a bubble.

So enjoy watching how did happen, even if you know the end.

Well, keeep in mind that this weekend was a title decider - so people are bound to celebrate/cuss about the outcome. So I am not surprised at all to see topics like this.

If I were you I would have not been online at all if watching without knowing the results mattered that much.

 

I would simply suggest not to visit any website or forum related to motorsports until you view the race. And not make a useless request about thread titles in a motorpsort forum. Especially on a weekend when the F1 WDC is at stake.

 

Exactly.

I thus have to question your allegiance to F1 ... you obviously do not take it seriously enough.

I tape all the races now and get up 1/2 an hour early on Monday morning and watch them ... heck sometimes I am even a little late for work!

And seriously you had the TIME to log on to the net and yet not to watch the tape ... does your work not have a TV and video player?

I really think it is time the concept of spoiling the results was kicked firmly out. We are all grown ups (well most) if you cannot watch it straight away, well tough ... live a day or 2 without the internet.

ps: I absolutely knew this was coming ... but I am serious, it is time for moderators to do an about turn and drop this stupidity and just say 'hard cheese' ...

 

I'm still trying to figure out how that title told you who won.

It might have told you who didn't win and who finished on the podium, but it didn't tell you who won the race, unless I'm missing something.

 

Yep you are missing something ... it told him who won the REAL prize, the WC!

That is what they are all racing for
Pete

 

Yes, I know the title told who won the WC, but from his initial post it looks like he was saying it told him who won the race.

 

How can people still come to this website when they don't want to see spoilers.

 

My situation is really funny .. I missed the race due to a hurricane - couldnt fly home last weekend.

So I tracked the race on the internet - live timing on Formula1.com. I know exactly what happened but I will still watch the race with enthusiasm when I get back this weekend. I assume of course that my satellite dish was not taken out by Miss Rita

 

I have constructed a special shed down the back of my house.
It has 4 things:
1) A generator
2) A TV
3) A VCR
4) A Bed

The night of a race, before the race, i say goodnight to my wife. I proceed to make my way down the back of the house,to the shed, and set the timed lock on the door, to open up at precisely 8am the next morning, walk in and shut the door.

I tape the race, and goto bed. When i wake up at 6am to watch the race, im safe from all outside risks of me knowing the results. Im safe from nagging women, and telephone calls. Im safe from Fchat spoilers, and idiotic news readers.

Im safe in my shed.

Its the only way ive found to protect myself. You think it's a little weird?

 

Must be sound proof then .

Pete

 

Solid Stell baby!

Its bomb proof too, but i can sometimes hear the woman over the 19k revving engines, through the steel walls..

Women are powerful creatures.

 

Are you sure she's not the one hitting 19k ... ...

Those jaw muscles and control systems on a womans mouth are technical marvels ... F1 engine designers could learn something by studying them, might be able to revolutionise high speed valve control .

Pete

 

David Coulthard's jaw has been dramatically widened to compensate new technology.
So according to your theory, DC is a woman.

Not surprising, the guy is all talk...!!

 

I just want it noted that I did not create that thread ... even though my username has been captured by Robert.

Pete

 

I believe this muscle growth had lots to do with kneeling before Ron ...

Pete

 

LOL!

DC's motto for his Jaw..

"Its the Growth, that helps with the Girth"

 

Robert,

I appologise, you sound way more serious than I ... in fact I was too tired to bother taping the race and missed it completely.

Please accept my original post as a bit of a leg pull ... as it was intended, well the first part anyway.

The only thing I will say is that I did not post any of the offending posts AND that I only come to FerrariChat to discuss F1 and the old cars, thus this is very much a F1 site to me.

I hope you are feeling much better.
Pete
