Nice one Stu, think he will as long as its not sponsored by the News of the World!

I think he's a moron (fair play he founded F1) but i think it's fine the way it is.... competative, because it currently keeps the race winners on their toes coz the other drivers can still catch up points wise.
Whats with all this unfair treatment towards maclaren and drivers its really starting to bug me

When you say maclaren do you mean the baby buggys? Only messing, I'm not a fan of Ferrari, but they do well and are always up there, and I believe you should support who you feel, but it does seem that McLaren do get the brunt of things.

Actually MacLaren makes very good baby buggies.

But that is your interpretation BF Lewis had a different interpretation and he was IN the car which gives him a slight advantage over you

He said something like this : i lost the rear on the marbles and had to correct so i went off track. But that was after i passed vettel.

So i don't think that he planned to cut the chicane in order to pass him. However i still feel that he should have given the place back just to be sure rather then sorry.

Oh and i would like to thank Shell for the lubricant because you need good lubricant - Massa at the post race interview

It's so funny and they are forced to say this

Very sad indeed

Silverstone Testing: Day 2 results

1. Heikki Kovalainen, McLaren, 1:20.015
2. Jarno Trulli, Toyota, 1:20.391
3. Nico Rosberg, Williams, 1:20.624
4. Nelson Piquet, Renault, 1:20.787
5. Sebastian Vettel, Toro Rosso, 1:20.795
6. Robert Kubica, BMW Sauber, 1:20.982
7. Felipe Massa, Ferrari, 1:21.069
8. Mark Webber, Red Bull, 1:21.170
9. Jenson Button, Honda, 1:21.445
10. Giancarlo Fisichella, Force India, 1:21.583

I think that Jarno is in best form of his life.He's been silently fast. I hope that he gets a consistently good car this year.

Timo's not putting him under huge pressure though, is he?

But that's not Jarno's problem is it?

It isn't, true but it's certainly one less thing to worry about. Ask Alonso

Yes....Alonso comfortably beat Trulli at Renault.....and then Hamilton happened

And then Heikki happened ... oops, wrong

I hope that he will happen. I enjoyed Hamilton vs Alonso immensely. There is nothing like a cut-throat internal warfare and also battling other teams. Compared to it, Massa and Kimi are brothers....it's boring
