And Pic is off

Even with so little running FOM cameras are missing a crash.

They missed Gutierrez crash and now Pic's. This is becoming a trend, retro trend of 1970's.

Looks like the track is relatively dry atm. At least it isn't raining.

Well in all honesty, I can probably understand why FOM thought they didn't need to catch that crash. After all, he's had so many this season that FOM will probably just replay a previous crash and no-one would know the difference.

Massa crashed.

Romain Grosjean lost his title of crash king. That title is now owned by Massa.

Massa's been in the wall more than on track lately.

Massa in the wall in a wet silverstone. I'm sure we've been here multiple times before.

I have seldomly seen a car crash on the inside there.

Alonso did that last year as well.

Wonder whats happened to Massa the last few races, He started off the season very strongly & then since Monaco he's been very crash prone & not especially fast either.

Strange noise on Alonso's car from the OnBoard when he's at speed down the straights.

[PedanticMode]Actually no, we haven't. In 2002 and 2008 Massa went spinning around more times than Kylie Minogue but never hit anything (bar a polystyrene marker board) and finished both races[/PedanticMode]

I think when you spin as many times as he did, you might as well just put it in a wall and be done after the first one.

It is amazing to think that Massa was pretty much derided for his performance at the 2002 race, yet he still managed to finish 9th and only a lap down. Only one year later and that finish would have been 1 place off a point. Today that would be 2 points.

He was 9th, but only 11 cars finished lol. And iirc, the 2 cars behind him suffered technical issues to put them behind him.

Oh I know, but still. He never crashed. I realise that if he'd only stayed on the tarmac he'd have probably collected a few points.
