Can't disagree Enzo, but I'm still gutted for Massa. He wouldn't have won the race, as the * that shall remain nameless had the better car under him, and so would probably have taken him legitimately, but it must have made Felipe feel pretty wreched.

I agree Miles,
Would love to see Massa win some races...
and I really believe that if he is in front, he will not give way to his team-mate, heheheheh
I am convinced of it and would be willing to part with some hard earned...in fact, i'm off to betfair...back shortly.

Thats no suprise to be honest....They never ever was going to do a thing......I agree with you both a shame for Massa. The winging twit is the winner here...But lets just get on with the racing. As long as its not Alonso winning of course.

Hardly surprising that the Ferrari International Assistance (that is what FIA stands for isn't it?) came to that conclusion.

Bet your bottom dollar that if it had been any other team, say MacLaren, then it would have been a case of forfeit all your points.

I'm disappointed that I'm disappointed, but I am. (If you see what I mean.)

It's very good and although I have a soft spot for Ferrari they always seems to be a bit of true in that statement......

FIA President - Jean Todt.
Former CEO of Scuderia Ferrari with 15 years loyal service - Jean Todt.

Hmmm, wonder if there's a link or am I being cynical?

Never forgave him for taking Hill off the track and winning the championship by 1 point.
Cynical calculated move.
NASTY man

But most of the greats are like that GDL..Look and Senna...Loved him but he also did some pretty calculated moves to win.

Never a fan of Damon Hill, o.k he won the championship but my dad said that the williams car he won in was that far ahead of everyone else, stevie wonder would have won the championship in that.

some would say that of the Ferrari that Scumacher had all his wins in - even when his team mate was winning Scumacher won!

Whilst Senna was robust I don't think he indulged in the blatant cheating that Scumacher did.

Other than the cynical crash with Hill, take Monaco qualifying in 2006 while provisionally holding pole position he stopped his car at La Rascasse hairpin, blocking the track. Waved yellows meant competitors had to slow down thus meaning they would not be able to beat his lap time. Schumacher was sent to the back of the grid for that one.

Hill won a few in cars that no-one would have given him a chance in.
One of the things that impressed me about Hill was the consistency of his lap times - just a few thousands variation from lap to lap.

Watched him (and Scumacher) at Monaco from the hillside at Rocher - they were so different to every other driver going round those corners. (La Rascasse and Anthony Noghes)
Even if you couldn't tell their cars from their team-mates' you knew who was driving from how smooth and fast they were.

I do love watching it now when Scumacher is consistently out-qualified and out-raced raced by his team-mate
