My Single Highlight Of 2009 is: - DiscussWorldIssues - Socio-Economic Religion and Political Uncensored Debate

**exeftWabreava** · 02-28-2010, 10:25 PM

As the new season approaches maybe we can all state which our favorite grand prix and single highlight was of 2009.

For me:
Jenson's Monaco Grand Prix weekend.
That weekend his performance was equal to greatest that our wonderful sport has seen.

Single highlight:
Jenson's pole winning lap at Catalunya.

LOL

Well I think that Jensons run from the pits to the podium will stick with me for many years - great moment.

As for best racing moment - Brazil. A star was born that day and his name is Kobayashi.

**legal-advicer** · 03-01-2010, 02:57 AM

My fave moment was when Brawn GP dominated the first part of the season and especially the first GP in Oz.

**irrelaAnnekly** · 03-01-2010, 02:59 AM

Kimi Räikkönen winning the Belgium GP with a car that wasn't up to it was definitely the highlight for me.

**arindiruppya** · 03-01-2010, 03:35 AM

One memory which sticks with me is when Mark Webber let out a huge release of emotion at the German GP, winning his first ever F1 race. I had tears in my eyes and the moment reminded me of Senna when he won the 1991 Brazilian GP. Some would say he was "crying like a baby", but I would put it down to thirty seconds of adrenaline fuelled cries of joy and happiness. Nice one Mark...

Yeah that was wicked.

agreed. finally Mark's potential had been realised when all bad luck was crushed. I felt so happy for him, couldnt happen to a nicer guy!

The run should become a Monaco GP tradition - think I'll poll that!

Kobayashi could become the best from Japanese motor racing yet - and he learns quickly it appears. None of that weaving under braking at Yas Marina which caused Jenson a heart-stopping moment and triggered Nakajima's crash at Interlagos.

**Kubasarika** · 03-01-2010, 06:36 AM

A word for Fisichella's Pole and 2nd place in the Race. That was certainly a great moment. IMO

**tinamasak** · 03-01-2010, 07:50 AM

Highlight: Mark's primeval scream after winning in Germany.

Low-light: Kimi cutting the chicane at Spa and not getting a penalty.

Jenson punked himself. Kobayashi moved only once in both instances, and other drivers throught they could intimidate him. Guess not.

**justashonglefan** · 03-01-2010, 10:29 AM

lie gate

NO i lied mark webber to have a drive thru penalty and still win

**Eujacwta** · 03-01-2010, 12:11 PM

Kimi Räikkönen winning the Belgium GP with a car that wasn't up to it was definitely the highlight for me.

Add to that Fisi's performance.

Honorable mentions to Kobayashi's race and Button whining like a little baby about it.

And webber's win with the penalty. That was brilliant too!

I do not believe that racing drivers or human beings in general should be like terminators, showing no emotion. I am not a fan of RBR, but was very happy for Mark, especially when I heard how really, really excited and delighted he is.

**freflellalafe** · 03-01-2010, 03:03 PM

I don't think I'd like that. What made it a magic moment was the humor of it, it would quickly loose that if it was "staged" every year - much like Donuts or climbing the fence in American racing - both of those things were awesome when they were first done but they've lost the spur of the moment feel.

**bobibnoxx** · 03-01-2010, 05:57 PM

Australian GP was pretty special. First ever race with new rules and new-looking cars. Let's add massive uncertainty in many ways with even teams not knowing, what exactly does work and what doesn't (KERS). Then also those rapidly deteriorating soft tyres in the race - never seen something like that before, which created some mess. And on top of all a shocking pecking order, which saw almost everyone upside down to what we had been used to and which was really hard to get used to initially. Honorable mention to the Belgian GP qualifying, which was quite memorable too.

you think he was crying like a baby - should of seen my reaction LOL

greatest higlight in my F1 life period after Mika winning his first championship

I was so excited, so happy and very emotional

Thats what great sport should be like! I haven't had that feeling myself since Damon won his title but I should imagine I'll be a blubering wreck if Nico scores his first race win this year.

**exeftWabreava** · 03-01-2010, 06:57 PM

Jenson punked himself. Kobayashi moved only once in both instances, and other drivers throught they could intimidate him. Guess not.

I dont know what you mean by "punked" but if you look into the Descida do Sol - the first corner past the pits on Jenson's first complete lap after his refuelling stop, he was side by side with Kobayashi [who had already moved once] and just into the corner the Japanese driver moved left and Button had to react.

That is not allowed in F1 - and it caused whip oversteer which Jenson had to correct and with a heavy car he slid wide in the negative camber corner and Kobayashi kept the position.

It was then that Jenson complained to his team.

Kobayashi was very different driver at Yas Marina.
