2009 Magyar Nagydíj

I think he blacked out...

Edit: In slow motion you can see something hitting Massa's helmet.
 
Something hit his helmet, oh christ.....
 
Looks like a nut.
 
Hello guys. Don't worry...Massa is gonna be OK. The helmet has done his work.
 
That looked awful. Rubinho has just been to see him in the hospital and apparently he's talking. He's ok. :nervous:
 
And now the timing system has a BSOD. AND ALONSO GETS P1! It's the funniest qualification I've ever seen.
 
Did anyone else hear what Jenson just said?!!
 
Did anyone else hear what Jenson just said?!!
Yes, he used the F word. What a naughty boy! :dopey:
 
Any word on what the times are yet?

all I know is Alonso's 1.21.5, Hamilton 1.21.7.
 
It's 14:31 dude...
 
Jenson said he'd done a 1:22.5.
 
Give us the full phrase of what Jenson said please please DQuan!! :D

But then again, Mark Webber swore after he finally won a race. :lol: Who could blame him?? :sly:
 
the top three is: Fernando Alonso, Seb Vettel and Mark Webber.

The rest of the top 10: Hamilton, Rosberg, Kovalainen, Raikkonen, Button, Nakajima, Massa.
 
BrawnGP's twitter updates saying "JB P7, RB P13. Sorry for the confusion, all information vanished from the screens everywhere... // Felipe is talking and looks OK."

Now they've edited to say JBs P8

What a funny ending to the qualifying with all the times disappearing and Alonso quizzing everyone :p even better was to see Jenson not notice the camera and show shock the same way 90% of us do on a daily basis haha 👍

lets hope the race will be as memorable :lol:
 
A full second quicker than Button. That's why he said...

Good to see Hamilton amongst the front runners again. Hope he doesn't get a puncture this time!
 
Check this out guys

Gory image - not for the weak of stomach

Ouch! That was close.
 
Might need some stitches with that one. :scared:
 
AUP my friend! ;)

Dammit....I'm going to have to search for this on YouTube later aren't I? :ouch:

Just gimme the context of how he said it....like Mark Webber (happy Jenson) or upset Jenson??

*added bit* Here's the video of the Massa incident.



*added bit #2* Don't worry DQuan I found it. Because of AUP I won't post it, but I can tell it was more a "happy for Fernando" version of Jenson swearing. :)
 
Was the telemetry screwed or did he have throttle AND brake full on when he went in to the wall?

*edit*
Mafia... ;)
 
I think there would be a huge chance of his foot slumping onto the brake aswell as the accelerator after being KO'ed.
 
It's going to be an uphill battle for JB tomorrow. He's on the dirty side of the circuit and there's three KERS cars - plus Rosberg - between him and the Red Bulls. Let's hope some of Ross brawn's tactical genius will come to the fore here.

Most likely he slumped forward when he was knocked out. His head was very clearly thrown back when the spring struck, and the only way his body could accomodate that shift was for him to follow the contours of the monocoque and move forwards; his head is very clearly lower in the cockpit at the time of the accident than it was beforehand.
 
Massa 's only luck was the impact being 3" left of centre.
It's hard to work out why it(the metal tube) was still bouncing down the road.
Don't think he will drive today in the race , to much swelling I would say.


Congrats to Alonso:cheers:

I feel Webber and Hamilton are the heaviest of the top 5, going only on Q2-Q3 comparisons. Kimi and Jenson look like they are heavy too.
 
I'm not sure but i've heard that an F1 car brake pedal needs around 70 newtons of force to be full on. He can't have been unconcious to apply that kind of force.

It may be an instinct to apply the brake initially, but to maintain pressure as his head slumps forward is unlikely. I guess its possible he just held concioncness until the impact of the tyre barrier, as the front wheels are only just rotating, when he goes across the concrete.

Not fully concious more likely, he probably wasn't in the mental state to differenciate between accelerator and brake so he just pressed down fully on what ever pedal was by his right foot, of course, if he was able to think clearly after the blow to the face he could have avoided the incident understandably he wasn't, but its fair to assume he probably wasn't unconscious as he went off the track.
 
I wonder if Massa will be fit to driver tomorrow? This coming so close to the Surtees incident is shocking.

KERS cars in the 2nd and 3rd rows means turn one will be interesting.
