Good to hear Kubica is ok. One hell of a crash - the worst I've seen in a while. Was looking pretty serious for a few minutes what with all the medics and lack of movement.

Great job by Hamilton and Heidfeld though. They both kept going perfectly throughout all the mayhem. Really please about Hamilton. :D

Wurz did good too, with the chunk of his rear wing missing. I'm surprised it didn't break or fall off.

Sato was doing brilliant at the end. I was amazed when he beat Ralf in a straight fight, but Alonso? A few more laps and Raikkonen would have been under attack from him too. :laugh:

Alonso drove poorly today. He really had problems with the first corner, and almost committed the biggest no-no of F1.

What a great win for Hamilton.

Truly amazing what he's done so far.

I wouldn't go so far with the comparison's to Ayrton Senna though, they're not in the same league, let's see what Hamilton's accomplished in the next 10 years.

Brilliant drive by Sato aswel, i love him, cheeky chappy.

I totally agree gourjays.

Was one hell of a race.

Sad crash for Kubica and I thought it was going to be real serious until he got out of the car. Fortunately only a broken leg for him.

As for the race well... HAMILTON! Well done to him.

As for Takuma Sato... well what can you say?

Good race and the best so far this season.

I have no idea what happened!! All those pit mistakes, penalties and crashes! It was definitely hectic.

I still cannot believe Sato pass Alonso there in the final laps! wow! And that pass by Alonso in the pits to get a jump on Raikonen? Incredible

Although, I found that Alonso didn't hvae a good race straight from the get-go. He must have cut that chicane 4-5x today.

Can someone please explain to me why Fischicela & Massa got black flagged?

Can someone please explain to me why Fischicela & Massa got black flagged?

pit exit was closed (red light) as the safety car was getting close to the pit straight, and they both left the pit and so left before they were allowed. kubica and 1 or 2 others were the only ones to wait for the green light

Wow what an amazing race! :yes:

I'm glad Kubica is OK, this was the worst crash I have seen in years. And Hamilton was perfect as always... I really hope McLaren will let him fight with Alonso...

p.s. sorry about not posting results, I had problems with my internet connection

After initial reports of a broken leg, Kubica was later said to have suffered concussion and a sprained right ankle.

concussion is to be expected after a crash at that speed, but to come out with no broken bones is a testament to the safety of F1 cars now-a-days

yep. Saw the crash this morning on the news, and couldn't believe he walked away from that. It's just mad. Well done the the engineers of these cars.

Alonso saying Mclaren perfer Lewis over him. He can make me laugh sometimes, he's sour because he had an appauling race. He also can't take it that Mclaren want to at least help Lewis because they spent a lot of time getting him where he is now, not chance of them giving up.

Did he say that? Bitter... A team will always support it's fastest driver if he can win the championship, which Hamilton certainly can. Maybe Alonso should just up his game and stop making stupid mistakes on the very first corner of a race. Hamilton has been nothing but consistent.

Vettel to replace Kubica at Indy

15 June 2007

BMW Sauber's Sebastian Vettel will make his Formula One race debut at this weekend's US Grand Prix after FIA medical staff advised Robert Kubica not to race following his high-speed crash in Canada. Kubica suffered only concussion and a sprained ankle in the Montreal accident and told Thursday's press conference at Indianapolis that he was feeling 100 percent. However, athough the FIA doctors largely agreed, they felt it unwise for the Polish driver to risk the chance of a second concussion in such a short space of time.

The decision means Vettel gets a race call-up, while fellow German tester Timo Glock becomes BMW Sauber's reserve driver at Indy. Vettel, aged just 19, made several impressive third-driver outings with the team in Friday practice sessions last season and this season is competing in the World Series by Renault.

"Of course, I am looking forward to my first F1 race," he said, "but I wish it had come under different circumstances. It's never nice if a team mate can't drive because he had an accident. For me the Indianapolis Speedway is unknown territory, but I have prepared myself for this situation and tomorrow I have two 90 minute practice sessions. I know the car very well as I have quite a lot of testing miles under my belt."

Kubica is expected to return to the cockpit for the French Grand Prix on July 1, assuming he is given the all clear by medics ahead of the Magny-Cours race.

"Naturally I'm disappointed because I felt absolutely ready to race," he said. "But I respect the decision. It was made because there is too much risk to let me race in this Grand Prix in case I have had another impact so soon after Montreal. I will go home now. I wish Sebastian all the best. It is good for him and I am pretty sure he will do a good job."

BMW Motorsport Director Mario Theissen added: "We respect the decision of the medical personnel. The team was prepared for this situation. Sebastian will receive all possible support from us and we hope for another good race here."

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.

    • Like the article stated, it's written completely from scratch, unlike the umpteen Chromium clones. It got its start as the browser built-in to the also written-from-scratch SerenityOS.
