thats good news!!!

[SuperDave]

Haha, Alonso has lost the plot. He has been penalised for being a ***** and is going to have 2 seconds added to his qualification times.

[DHC09]

Yeah i guess he is feeling the pressure, and getting a little frustrated

Looks like its going to be another Ferrari onslaught (weather pending).

Toyota aint looking too bad either :)

[MR22ZZ]

He got ****** off with Robert Doornbos and brake checked him for no real reason, it's a practice session after all, not like they were racing or anything. He deserved a penalty but I'm not sure if this one was too harsh.

[CORZZA]

guys you know about that counter balance mechanism that renault had was illegal and taken out.

Well i hear its back in

[MR22ZZ]

I hear it was in but has been taken out once again

[CORZZA]

thats good news!

the buggers wont get away with it! the hearing is in mid sept i think

[ZEEROLLA]

Honda seems to be back up to speed BUT reliability!!! like Williams.. dodgy. <_<

[DHC09]

Schuy also coped a 2 sec pentaly in qualifying for overtaking two cars during red flag in 3rd practice.. why do these ppl do so much stupid things?! He would have been on the front row and possibly won the race while alonso is stuck in mid-field on an unpassable track! And if that were to happen he would be only 1pt behind alonso after the race... <_<

Just when ppl are starting to forget the "parking" incident in monaco... this crap happens..

Well there were some positives:

1. Both Toyotas are in the top ten :)

2. Jenson's Honda engine blew up

According to MS one of the cars he overtook was Alonso and he forced his hand

story

Doesn't worry me, just means I get 2 point in the mini league

And as for this track being unpassable, look at how well Mansell went in 1989 from 12th.

[CORZZA]

Just look at massa!!! Wow im really impressed!

I think this could be his day if he playes his cards right!!!

[RedLiner]

Alonso is **** wit...ive never liked him and his attitude...

Watch Barrichello fall back from the start..Hondas always start crap

Schumacher will fight back..alonso wont cos he sucks...

Prediction ...raikonnen to win with a toyota in 2nd or 3rd place...

[CORZZA]

Massa to win Kimi 2nd Trulli 3rd... ;)

Schumi 5th and Alonso 8th

10:30! :D

[DHC09]

Having been watch living timing....

Dont read on if u dont want to know!!

Bridgestone are getting hammered in the wet ... its a sad race for our teams (Toyota and Ferrari)

****... Kimi just crashed.... :( :(

[CORZZA]

WOOOOHOOOOO!!!!

What a race im on the edge of my seat! DAmn jenson is doing well!

Come on michael!!!

[DHC09]

WHAT A RACE!!!

Well done Jenson and Honda

[RedLiner]

The wet conditions turned the race on its head...

exciting race.........

lol@ trulli hitting lift and blowing his engine :P

[SuperDave]

Yay! Massa and MS both ended up with points. Otherwise no one would have anything to show for in the mini league

[ZEEROLLA]

Damn!! Knew i should have chosen Honda for this race :P Big pat on back for Jenson though, he is one of the most consistent/reliable drivers around unlike some others who are a bit accident prone and expensive for teams. But what a race, edge of seat stuff! The best race yet imo, partly bcus there were so many twists and HONDA FINALLY WON!! :P

But on a serious note it wasn't raw pace that Honda had (Ferrari on drys were damn quick), they weren't slow either but it was Honda's strategy and tyre choice which went perfect with Jenson staying out on inters until right at the end as there was a possibility of rain again. This is what Formula 1 is about, everything coming together to win races. We just needed a bit of rain in the last few laps to stuff everything up, those dry slicks are absolutely hopeless in damp to wet conditions, we saw it in one of the earlier races where people on slicks were basically losing it at every corner and even on the straights.

Including a bit of luck for Button finally :P Na he drove a super race from 14th and would have had good battles with Alonso and Kimi. Dont think he'll win again this season (unless it rained again :P ) but next season should get a few more.

It was a shame the weather was sh!t, toyota boys were putting in impressive times once the track dried up, and definately wud be challenging for podium on a hot track.

BTW heard rumours renualt is not goin to sign webber... looks like he is off to Red Bull :o

[CORZZA]

Well done too jenson! good on him!
