Alonso vs Massa in Ferrari will be interesting, as will Hamilton vs Raikonnen in McLaren. I think both will treat their drivers equally.

It will be an interesting finish to the season and then a more interesting start next year to see who's doing what and with whom?

Ah well, will watch the fun and games tomorrow.
am I right in assuming Button is 7th and Barrichello 5th on the grid?

I find F1 quite dull but watch the races if I can, but no early start for me.
I`m suprised by Fisi, he couldhave made the difference at F.India and won a race this year but he ran after the dosh and prestige of the Ferrari name, what a bozo . Imagine winning a race for Force India, that would be amazing, for Ferrari it`s just another win and as he isn`t embedded into the team, it won`t happen.

Originally posted by centurian View PostThe Sky+ programme guide is pretty smart if changes are made to programme schedules, but I don't know about last minute changes, especially extensions.
I'll probably get up for it tomorrow, as it seems like it might be quite entertaining. Just watched the repeat today.
Vetel's still in with a chance of the championship (25 points behind, 30 left to win). But winning tomorrow with Button out of the points, as the starting positions suggest, would be a big step.

Originally posted by Zippy View PostI don't think Ruebens is out of the hunt yet. If he manages to keep it on the track he'll get good points.
Ruebens on the other hand - just seems to want it that bit more, so I wouldn't be that disappointed if he actually won it.

Alonso probably is the best driver currently in F1, but is the most self-centred driver I have ever seen - far more so than Schumacher.
His indirect actions have almost brought two large teams to the brink. He didn't make Nigel Stepney steal information, or Nelson Piquet crash, but his insistent demand to be the "No1 driver in the team" contributed to both events coming to light. Hope Ferarri know what they are letting themselves in for.
Little sympathy for the Brawn's I am afraid. Had they gone out straight away after the 2nd red flag, they would have had a "banker" lap on the board and it wouldn't have been a problem. Very surprised Ross didn't see that coming.
Also surprised that Reubens didn't insist on doing something different to Jenson. Given the same equipment, if he does the same as Jenson, the most he can hope for is a few more points than him. He needs something radical to overhaul that lead.

I like Alonso but he can be a sneaky little barsteward so
The penalties do seem a bit harsh on the Brawns as they didn't have much time to react to the flags.
