    But it was a bit like the effort put in at USF1, in the end it didn't amount to much and wasn't really worth it!. :p

    Meanwhile the story has been reported by several other and credible sources as well, so chances are that Massa's contract gets extended between 1 and 3 years.

    blah...i don't believe it til i see it anymore.

    what does that do to the kubica rumours? the alonso rumour was the worst kept secret ever, but i wonder if that was just guesswork that happened to be right.

    *shrug*

    maybe ferrari made up the kubica rumour to screw massa down in price.

    I think the Kubica rumors might have come from the fact that Alonso and he are close friends (allegedly).

    When Alonso signed an option and later a contract with Ferrari before it was announced, the top journalists knew it and reported it as fait accompli. In Kubica as well as Massa's case we haven't seen that.

    Re-signing Massa makes a lot of sense. He is the perfect #2 and now after a few races we have seen that he hasn't lost any of his speed due to the accident. Plus they probably also wanted to see how well Alonso and Massa can get along, which seems to be just fine.

    I guess I just feel sorry for people who have to go to that amount of effort to offend people on here!.

    For Me it takes no effort at all, it comes perfectly naturally without even trying (and sometimes without even meaning to!), it's like some sort of "super power" that I have. It's not restricted to the internet either, I can annoy and wind people up in the real world, just as easily (there is a higher risk of receiving an injury using this "super power" in the real world though!). The best part is though is that people can try to insult Me and I'm just not bothered by it (in fact that usually winds them up even more! :D ) .

    As for re-signing Massa, see My post #42 for My thoughts. The whole signing Kubica rumour made no sense to Me whatsoever!.

    looks like he's been watching for some time, I liked him :)

    USF1 was an oxymoron

    this guy did more research than them, I reckon it was the guy who failed the cheerleader entrance exam :p

    I haven't been here long enough or paid enough attention to know all the parties (or rather their net personas) and the circumstances but some of it seemed very perceptive. For example people not honoring their bets deserve be shot, IMO. It is very New West. And clearly the author is quite well educated, like Mr. Kaczynski.
