Ummm i don't think Glock did anything on purpose. It's just too bad he didn't hold on for just a few more seconds. I feel really bad for Massa, but as he said that's racing. If Ferrari would have paid a lil more attention during some races like for example the issue with the fuel hose maybe now Massa would trully savor this victory. Hamilton won but did it so closely to loosing.

More important for me is that i hope it really pays off BMW's strategy for the next year. Stopping the development of the car so early, almost mid season, didn't help at all Kubica to potentially claim the title. Hope BMW next year will come with a really strong car. Too bad Alonso won't be joining Kubica, as i think Heidfeld needs to go. Keeping Heidfeld around for 2009 will sure become a liability regardless how German he is.

I'm just glad Hamilton now is the youngest ever, not that POS Alonso anymore.

You say that but you've got to admit Alonso did some really good voodoo with the Renault car especially in the last couple of races. Coming from a disastrous car in the beginning, this really shows the talent of a complete driver regardless of how POS he is....whatever that means.


BTW: Did you guys see that Ferrari has Apple keyboards and mice at their control panel?!?! I found that really awkward at the begining, but then looking again i was certain. Weird...since i never saw anything Apple about Ferrari, in fact i've seen Acer notebooks and all that.

Complete driver? NO!

The car got better towards the end of the season, not him...

And you think the car got better just by itself? Or engineers doing all the job in setting the car with no driver feedback?!
BAAAH!

Alonso is, was and will allways be a complete douche. Not more or less.

He is more talented than we are, but shouldn't be in F1.



The car got NOT better because of Alonsos feedback!
