ROFLMFAO

Well McLaren washed the floors with Ferrari and the beloved tifosi.

How embarassing.

Better call the FIA to save the day...again.

Italian Police.....there's a joke.

Quick skim here....nothing changes.

 

Hey there quit bltch slapping FIAT around.

Italian law, 10 years to conclude the "Senna Trial" , conclusion nothing.

Typical Italian chest puffing and posing, in other words acting like a union member here in the states.

The Speed channel shot of team FIAT crying in their pasta in contrast to the joy at Mercedes was classic.

 

I am somewhat interested in the 'passing comment' that FA (possibly) might not be sharing setup data with LH anymore. If this is the reason for FAs speed over LH, then what would happen to LH if FA left the team next year?

I also noticed that FA did not once mention the TEAM in the post race interview. It was "I did.... I..... I......" for the whole thing!

 

Too bad FM had to retire!!

And wtf, LH coming out w/ an autobiography!!!

 

We had thunderstorms roll thru and the power went out right as Hamilton was making his pitsop.

Nice to see Honda score a point

 

Ferrari title over, Italian press foresees
Except for court-based decision
10/09/07 15:32


After an "embarrassing" home Grand Prix, the Italian press has come to the conclusion that Ferrari's championship tilt in 2007 is basically now over.

"It is simply embarrassing," the sports daily La Gazzetta dello Sport said after Kimi Raikkonen finished third and Felipe Massa retired with a suspension failure.

"A devastating home defeat follows the one-two of Istanbul. The drivers' title is probably now over, and the constructors' championship can only be won in the FIA courts," the paper added.

Turin-based Tuttosport chose a different tack, hailing Fernando Alonso's Monza victory as "Ferrari-like" and heralding him as an ideal driver for the Maranello-based team.

"His dream is to defeat (Lewis) Hamilton, to leave McLaren, and then sit in Schumacher's Ferrari. A Spaniard in an Italian team would for Italy be a sensation," the newspaper wrote.


The Italian broadsheet La Repubblica admitted that Massa's championship is now over and pointed a finger at Kimi Raikkonen's performance for just third on Sunday.

"Hamilton humiliates Raikkonen," the Rome newspaper wrote in a byline, referring to the McLaren rookie's overtaking move at the first chicane late in the race.

Milan's Il Giornale called Monza a "debacle" for Italy's team.

"The hour of truth will soon strike in Paris," the daily newspaper added, referring to Thursday's meeting of the World Motor Sport Council.





If Lewis wins (with FIA help that he has received) and can't set up his own car (all season has been copying Alonso's set-up), then what kind of champion will he make. It will be on par with Schumacher 1994 (i.e. a joke).

Alonso and Kimi should perform well at Spa...a true driver's circuit.

Kimi's neck injury was surely a factor in letting Craneboy past (although it might have been difficult to defend at turn one given the straight line speed advantage of Macca).

Where's Schumi's ex-lover???

 

The McClarens sure dance well on the curbs! And I have to cut Kimi some slack after that practice crash. Not surprised his neck was giving out in the race.

Hamilton's pass was brilliant. Insane but skillful and unexpected. He had just barely enough braking to avoid overshooting the chicane. If Kimi had thought to close the door he'd have been unable to slow or get out of the way. I said to myself, "well give it a few laps and Lewis may work past Kimi but it'll be tough." I sure was wrong!

 

hmm..should i be switching my fantasy team player to alonso instead of raikkonen?
