As far as Hamilton beating Alonso regularly when they were in the same chassis; was that due to Alonso contributing so much to development and Hamilton being shown favoritism or can Lewis beat Fernando on most days in an equal chassis? If the rules hadn't changed regarding front tire sizes would Lewis and Michael do better due to more aggressive late braking vs tire degradation (I'm not as interested in watching so tactical of a tire maintenance game vs drivers out driving each other). Kubica is proven talent and Vettel has shown over and over again that he can get the job done and makes a few mistakes like everyone else. Massa is obviously above average. Rosberg is showing his talent as is Webber. Michael has lost a step but I will not count him out as he learns the modern cars. Kovaleinen is obviously not as good as Hamilton. Rubens still has it and can win in a competitive chassis but he's not THE best driver in the bunch. Petrov and Kobayahi are diamonds in the rough with Petrov really needing to keep it together, relax and concentrate (Hard to do). I think Button is quite good to excellent but can be beaten by quite a few drivers depending on circumstance. BTW, the Red Bull chassis is amazing although a little fragile perhaps.
My 2 cents. Paul. |

Monaco in 4 hours....... soooo excited not. |
Massa's got balls! good starting attempt.
|
Bye bye Button!

Alonso is mad... what a race!
|
That was a very unorthodox move at the end from Schumacher. Really cool if it was legal. I think it was legal but the race stewards are going to look at the replays.

Apparently the pass was not legal. It was fully legal according to last year regulations. However, a new rule has been added and it has now been clarified.
More here: http://en.espnf1.com/monaco/motorsport/story/17477.html The new rule - 40.13 - states: "If the race ends whilst the safety car is deployed it will enter the pitlane at the end of the last lap and the cars will take the chequered flag as normal without overtaking." |

lol what happend to alonso? I fell asleep after the ruben crashed. I always have not like monaco. Its to boring of a track for me.
|
how did barrichello not get a penalty for throwing out the steering wheel like that???
and wtf? how did schumacher get penalized for passing alonso?? he passed him after the first safety car line after alonso was having a little wheelspin passing the line. i don't get it |
I just saw a news report, Schumacher got a 20 second penalty for the Alonso pass. This moves him from 6th to 12th place.
Under rule 40.13, which states that "if the race ends whilst the safety car is deployed it will enter the pitlane at the end of the last lap and the cars will take the chequered flag as normal without overtaking," Normally this would be a stop & go type of penalty. However, since it was at the end of the race, a time penalty was accessed. There is no word about penalties for Barrichello. |
is there a site where i can dl the f1 race? thinking of installing utorrent on this laptop, since I dont use my other pc much

green flag, green lights, safety car in, passed after safety car line. i really don't see anything wrong in this situation.

Besides since this rule only applies when the safety car goes back in on the last lap I have a hard time seeing how this would ever incur a stop & go ;) And yes I love picking on you, Aln |
Oh and Mercedes obviously appeals.
http://en.espnf1.com/monaco/motorsport/story/17501.html I can only agree with Mercedes. |
