Eh..... yeah. Totally forgot about their late run during Q1. Bu still, that was only because the track manage to become "fast" during that late session, which also make Bourdais the quickest in that session. :tup:Honda qualified 16th and 17th, not quite the worst.
I don't understand why STR fueled Vettel so heavily, Spa is a track that heavily promotes overtaking and in the opening few laps I can see him falling like a stone. Unless they are heavily expecting an SC, I can't see how this is a points-winning strategy.
Alonso/Webber battle continues on, should be a good-un, as for the win, I think Massa might be slightly more fueled than Lewis and might just steal it.
Otherwise he would be of no use and have to support Massa for the WDC, making him the most expensive 2nd driver in a formula 1 team this year.
I feel sorry for Kimi he had two certain wins/big points taken away from him in Canada and France.
I wouldn't count Kimi out even if Massa did beat him this race. With Massa's bad luck Kimi could still challenge for this WDC. Stranger things have happend.
In any case, why does one driver have to rally around another? I feel sorry for Kimi he had two certain wins/big points taken away from him in Canada and France.
But if Ferrari don't concentrate their efforts on one or the other, they both can potentially hurt each others championship.
I agree with Mark Blundell in saying that Ferrari should have made the decision to back Massa already.
Hardly a champions effort of late from him. 👎
If im honest I dont agree with his views as he seems Pro Massa and he described some of the action of tomorrows race ; 'We may see the red cars float past the sliver ones...'
I don't like the idea of one member backing up another. I didnt agree with it when Massa was rear gunner for Kimi.
Why not we have the fastest 2 drivers?
Why can't we have both Ferraris going for the championship going into the last race. Like McLaren last year, like Senna and Prost. It might not mean the team wins but it makes for some exciting racing.
McLaren is a good example last year, beause of Hamilton and Alonso taking points out of each other, it let Raikkonen slip past for the win.
You think Bourdais is the fastest drive?!
That's what I meant when I said 'might not win'
Nah I'm on about that other chap, the one Alex loves oh so much..
Oh, and what great racing have we seen between Massa and Raikkonen? They barely ever meet each other on track, because Raikkonen's qualifying performances have been low. If anything, telling Raikkonen to help defend will increase the racing as we see people trying to battle past Raikkonen to get a chance on Massa.
What racing have we seen between many of the top guys? Massa and Hamilton lasted one turn. Soon as Hamilton passed Massa in Germany not much happend.
Well say tomorrow its wet, Kimi is behind Massa. Massa, knowing he's not to clever in the wet and is taking it steady and Kimi is a good 2 seconds a lap faster and Hamilton is catching both of them by a rate of a second a lap, does he risk over taking or sit and hope for the best? What happens if the same happens in the next race and so on, where do you draw a line?
I don't get your post? I didnt say they should tell him to let him past im saying does Kimi risk overtaking or sit thinking of the team. Do the team tell him not to pass or do they let them go at it?
