First practice just ended:

1. Massa
2. Kovalainen
3. Hamilton
4. Raikkonen

Massa did have a crash though, going off on some oil left by Alonso:

Massa's car looks bad, if they have to replace some parts (like gearbox or something on engine etc) he will get a 5 or 10 place grid penalty.
Kovalainen is just to useless to do anything during a race, won't end up any higher than third. Hopefully Hamilton 1st, and Kubica 2nd. That will make the championship race very interesting!
 
Hamilton once again made a mistake. It's amazing how many mistakes he's making this year. Villeneuve 2.0 I tell you! Massa is 9th because Ferrari didn't get him out in time for a second run.
 
massa does not seem to like this track much

i think that accident has cause like a mental block

there is no excuse, poor qualifying by him but he has been good this year no doubt

hamilton again shows that he is over rated i think
 
Yeah it's crazy man! They just took too freakin long to make the decision....
 
Ross Brawn made the Ferrari team look amateurish. I mean, Reubens was like 8 - 10 seconds PER lap quicker?
I know the drivers have a say in their tyre choices so if this was Kimmi's own choice then only himself to blame, but why do you have experts who know exactly when rain is predicted or not.

Just sour that James Allen kept repeating "i know there's an anti Lewis club out there, and you're asking what's so special about the man, well I hope you saw that today" :mad::mad:

"special" = 68.5s ahead of 2nd place. Well done Hamilton!!!

hamilton drove well no doubt but i dont think he drove better than kimi

ferrari made a huge mistake to keep him on the old inter's, then they should have gambled with wets

if anything kimi looked better than hamilton prior to the first stop and had they put on new inter's the race would have alot different i think

i also thought bwm threw another win away by not putting heidveld on wets

he would caught and beat hamilton

why are teams scared to gamble? i mean rubens in his slow car was 10 seconds faster than anyone else, imagine a bmw on wets

you can see ferrari are missing ross brawn badly
 
Can we use the community fund to hire people to stand with hose pipes at the next race? Or even very big buckets of water? I think it's time to start clicking adds...

5 	Nick Heidfeld 	German          BMW Sauber 	 36

Interesting point table after todays race:). I wonder if that has ever happened before half way through a season?:confused:

Good to see 4 viable contenders for the championship:).
