Ferrari appears to be pretty strong again. I have seen Hamilton race in the wet in lower classes of racing and the dude can drive in the wet :wtf: So I'm putting my money on Hamilton this weekend eventhough Ferrari probably has the best car.
Honda might also be involved in the scandal btw, not much can be said about anything untill the investigation is finished though. |

Traction control levels the field, a lot. |

I hope these are just rumors cause the Mclaren Chief designer has to be a total dumbass to actually give out 500 pages of classified Ferrari documents for photocopying.

Photocopying led to Ferrari investigation
Suspicions over Mike Coughlan's role in Stepneygate may have been sparked when an eagle-eyed shop assistant spotted Ferrari badges on documents he sought to photocopy at a commercial printing shop in Woking. Ferrari confirmed on Thursday that they had only begun legal action against Coughlan, McLaren's chief designer, after a tip-off from 'a third party outside Formula One racing'.
'The latest speculation, from sources close to Ferrari but not officially denied by the Scuderia, is that Coughlan may have aroused suspicion by taking the bundle of Ferrari documents to a photocopying shop within the past two weeks. According to one source, the shop assistant noticed the documents were classified and were stamped with Ferrari's famous Prancing Horse badge and this person may have informed Ferrari,' reports The Times.
With F1's rumour-mill in full swing, the newspaper speculates that the espionage scandal 'featured far more classified material than was first thought'. Up to 500 pages of information were allegedly passed on by Nigel Stepney, Ferrari's disenchanted mechanic, to Coughlan, 'providing him with a comprehensive picture of Ferrari's activities on the track and in the design studio.' The package reputedly 'included technical details and performance data on the Ferrari F2007, this season's race car, information about key engineers, details of race strategies, the preparation of cars, development plans for the future, test results and standards used in quality control.' The exchange allegedly took place at Port Ginesta in Spain, in late April when the two teams were both testing in Barcelona. |

I'm hoping that Hamilton can win his home GP.
This scandal thing is pretty interesting too! I'm curious to see how it all plays out.

| After Massa stalling on the grid it was up to the Iceman to lead his Ferrari to a superb victory. Massa put in fair effort climbing back in top 5. The championsship is ever so open for a Ferrari vs McLaren title. |

Both Ferrari's were super fast today. They looked way more planted through the fast sweepers.
Hamilton started on the wrong tire, I think. Still, he was fast enough to keep his streak of podiums going.
Kimi was on another level today. |
