i know its cool and all but i really didn't want to know who got pole. I'd recorded it to watch with the wife later.

Can you please not put a spoiler in the heading of your post.

Rant over and my apologies for being a bitch

What channel is it on later - I missed it too, taking advantage of the weather and a full tank of fuel!





If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

This is a petrolheads forum... if you were trying to 'hide' from the result of an F1 event until the highlights programme later, then surely you should have the basic gumption to stay away from a website like this!

Hardly rocket-science!

I think every time there has been an f1 so far this year there has always been a spoiler on here followed by someone complaining about it!! If you dont want to know what happened close your eyes and ears, hide behind the sofa and wait for the replay!

You can say whatever you want about this but by puting the qualy result (or leaving it out for that matter), in a post title will in no way alter the quality of the resulting post.

So if you wanted to be a nice guy and considerate of others, leave the result out of the title. If you don't, put a spoiler in. I don't really care

Does it really matter? It's not like it's the result of the race.

It still needs to be watched even though you know the pole. Was very good racing.

i would agree that theres no need to post the result in the title. Many people will want to watch it later and not knowing the result makes it much more enjoyable. It takes very little brain power to appreciate that, and even less to choose a more suitable title.

No chance of that. He peaked too soon.

when you only need to listen to the radio for 20-30minutes before the news comes on and announces it then I don't think anybody is being inconsiderate.

I would say calling somebody a "tw*t" for wanting to chat about some insignificant qualifying result puts you in a far more "tw*t"ish position.

If I record the F1 then I assume theres a large chance I will accidentally find out the result whether I want to or not, news headlines, overhearing a conversation, a text from an excited mate. Its not their fault, I'm the one in the unusual position of being very interested but not watching it at the time. I would recommend finding something of at least some importance to get annoyed about rather than this.

It's not the fact it's being discussed, it's the fact the result was used as the title, so you can't avoid it even if you want to.

How difficult would it be to use a title like "Exciting finish to qualifying, brilliant lap" which means everyone who wants to discuss it can and those that don't want to know can still read the rest of the forum.

Not that I give a toss about F1, and qualifying even less.

He could have meant Jenson had got a big stick up his bum, now that would have been different.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Why dont we ban all threads of this nature to a subforum that doesnt appear on the "todays posts" listing. Then everyone know not to go in there if they don't want to know any results?
