HAIL TO THE DOUBLE WORLD CHAMPION-FERNANDO ALONSO/RENAULT/MICHELIN

speedzak · 23rd October 2006, 04:16

Michael proved the world that he is the man!
No one has ever been like him in F1 or will be. Period!

Whatta race it was! Amazing! Eye popping! Beautiful! Ummmwah!!

Massa winning with his country colours, Fonsi driving conservatively like dravid on a bouncy pitch, Fisi defending his team mate, Honda in a good position, a few spectacular crashes and tops of all Schumacher at his best!

Auf Weidersehen Schumi. Well raced. Prima.

redrage · 23rd October 2006, 07:39

amazing drive by micheal , it really needs something to make up positons like he does...... he is a living legend no doubt.

tifosikrishna · 23rd October 2006, 07:53

Fastest lap and new lap record on his penultimate lap of his glittering career. what a way to leave. Schumi, undoubtedly you are the king.

tifosi.

Nice race by Michael Schumacher. Pity he had that problem in qualifying, and then more problems during the race, or else the race would have been his, for sure, including some briliant overtaking moves down the sart-finish straight.
Another thing Brazil has shown is FIA's blind eye towards everything happening in Ferrari.
A FIA rule states: "after receiving the end-of-race signal all cars must proceed on the circuit directly to the post race parc ferme without stopping, without overtaking (unless clearly necessary), without receiving any object whatsoever and without any assistance (except that of the marshals if necessary)". (Source: GrandPrix)
Breaking this rule leads to 1. Driver's suspension from race or 2. Final race position penalty.
Incidentally, Massa stopping and picking up the Brazilian flag clearly breaks this rule. Why wasn't he punished then? In Monza, Alonso was punished for "blocking" Massa, even though TV images were non-conclusive as they showed Alonso quite a bit ahead of Massa and no changes in telemetry.
And here Massa goes on and breaks a rule so clearly in open... what about the FIA stepping in??
Just a concern from a fan, concerned about F1's future and the FIA's incompetence.

Also, great race by Jenson Buton and Takuma Sato. Bad luck for Trulli in the Toyota; he was looking really strong.

Flag was given by marshals, so Ferrari can contend that the marshals thought it necessary to give Massa the flag to avoid a track overrun by the crowd.

And, I've seen this happen before, with non-Ferrari drivers. No, I don't remember who when where.

naveendhyani · 29th October 2006, 07:33

it was when mika lost his engine on the last lap & david stopped him & carried mika to the pits sitting on his side pod waving to the crowd. dont remember the race though.

karthik247 · 27th February 2007, 22:09

So guys, who do u think will be champ this year??? Last season was full of battles throughout, even for 3rd place. So this year...how do u think it'll be and who'll come on top?

karthik247 · 27th February 2007, 22:24

I guess it'll be Ferrari vs Renault vs McLaren. All 3teams have new drivers and should be fun to watch them go flat out since day one.

xinome · 27th February 2007, 23:01

seriously do you have a doubt regarding the 2007 F1 but i do have doubts on Giancarlo Fisichella i dont think he can keep up with mclaren and ferrari he was quite slow in montmelo

xinome · 27th February 2007, 23:41

fernando will get their man ALONSO ALONSO
you speaking spanish to me!!!

guessing out of the 3 best i seriosuly dont know, ferrari as always stays ahead while mclaren and renault seems to be tracking tied up & down at the back..
its getting wild, and will be wilder this season

moralfibre · 28th February 2007, 05:34

Forza Kimi. He is the man to watch this season. With a better car than an unreliable McLaren.

Mistakenguy · 28th February 2007, 07:22

Kimi Kimi Kimi All the way !!!

karthik247 · 28th February 2007, 08:05

Massa has had an excellent run last year and this doing very well in the tests as wall...and imo he would take the fight right to Kimi n Fonsi. And my vote goes to Massa!!!!
