Whoa, surprising win by Alanso.
WTF is wrong with Ferrari? Another fastest lap by Kimi. Another team up by Ferrari costing Massa valuable points.
Interestingly only 15 points separate McLaren/Ferrari/BMW for 1st in the constructors championship. I would love for BMW to come in and steal it at the end. |

I fail to see how ferarri ed up with the Pit Stop, the fuel rigs are all meant to be identical so if it doesn't come off, it's the fault of the manufacturer. If Massa did indeed get a green light then he had to go, so they'll have to look into that system though. As for the race, very good, Massa only just missed being speared by Suttil, would've been better if it was Kimi after he crashed into him in Monaco. Alonso won via strategy and a hunger to do something.
Definitely a successful weekend, perhaps karma on ferrari for the fia being biased towards them..... |

It was a mistake by a mechanic who turned the light green manually before he should have.
Btw, Tiesto, here's superstar DJ Fernando Alonso:

Good race... I loved the passing in that bumpy part of the section where the cars bottom out.
But not alot of passing. When kimi crashed i was so happy that he is super far from the points now. Massas mistake was key too (well the light malfunction, i dont think its operated by anybody btw, they are automati and change when the hoses are out)
Mclaren #1 in both driver and constructor championship.

The hose was still attached to the car, so there's no way the light could have turned green if the system was automatic. I remember Martin saying the refueller has to push a button before the car is released, in which case it was a human error. A costly one, it has to be said. Massa had been on fire up until then and was looking to overtake Lewis in the championship.
Nice to see Alonso come out on top again  |
