GERMAN GRAND PRIX - RACE *SPOILER*

Where are you getting the updates for Spa? (Good morning, by the way). I have no t.v. accessibility to the race.

I'm starting to get the feeling that Renault is going to move up the grid...Raikkonen was light, but it looks like many others were also. I wish they could actually show race pace that would put them in between Ferrari and Renault.

We'll see what happens...

 

Quiet again this morning.

Good start so far. Looks like the Bridgestones have caught up to the Ferraris capability.

I thought it was "tradition" that home teams always seemed to do well at their home race. What's up with BMW and McLaren?

And Barichello catching up to Alonso? Is Alonso running on full fuel? Almost like an entirely new season seems to have started. And Button passing Alsonso after his pitstop?

 

Barichello won't be catching up to anyone with his car on fire...

 

I think Michelin may have mailed it in for the season. It's obvious that Bridgestone has improved.

FA actually is behind Webber, who started 11th? I am starting to wonder about his commitment to the WDC when you see Fisi in front of him. McLaren is a shadow of its former self...Kimi's race is a disaster once again. I knew he was light on fuel, but a 4-stop strategy won't do anything for him.

 

Agreed, it was clear when Michelin didn't show up with competitve tiresat Indy that they were ratcheting back the budget.

 

Yea, Forza!!!!!

 

Congrats to the whole Ferrari Team upon a flawless weekend!! What a sweet victory in Germany!!

 

Sweet!

 

It's an 11-pt gap with 6 races to go. If MS finishes first and FA second every race, MS wins. At this point, I think MS's scenario looks more likely than FA's...Michelin should be cited for failure-to-appear. Now the testing ban is in place through the end of August (?), so things aren't going to change anytime soon.

As far as the constructor's championship is concerned, the prospects are even better for Ferrari.

 

FORZA FERRARI !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

What a great turnaround.

 

Based on that podium celebration, I don't think we'll see Kimi at Ferrari next year. It looks like Schumaker/Massa for another year to my untrained eye.

 

They sure looked comfortable with each other. I was surprised MS put his arm around him. Another great victory for Ferrari and now 11 points needed to take over the championship.

 

Franchitti will team with Milka Duno in the Citgo car in todays Rolex race.

 

Great race. I hope it goes like that!

 

Well done Ferrari.
Special kudos for Massa.

Now if we can only get rid of those heinous Bridgestone 'wheel goes round' commercials.

 

Have you heard the team radio after the finish? Schumacher praised the team and especially Massa. I hope we'll see him next year again together with Schumacher. He's good.

From now on, I really start believing in the chances of Ferrari to win the WC. Renault seems to be affected by their prohibited dampers and with the upcoming banning of testing, the future looks very bright. Bridgestone tyres are better too and with the next race in Hungary, it could be very close. Ferrari did well there over the past few years...

11 points to Alonso, 10 to Renault.

Go Ferrari!

 

I like those commercials.......kinda makes me chuckle in the morning

 

Not only an excellent result, but excellent coverage by the RTL crew. Lots of action and we got to see almost all of it.

Not only WOO but also HOO!

All together now:

WOOHOO!!!!!

 

FERRARI 1 - 2!!!!!!!!!

THE CRITICS SILENCED AGAIN!

On to Hungaroring and more Ferrari victories!

 

Nothing more horrible than a good "slincing".

 

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz


Ferrari is doing a good job or everyone else is incompetent, I think its a mixture. BUT the end result is just plain boring. No racing at all. F1 is in trouble, even the stands were empty at that hacked up track. On to the hungaroring the most boring track in the world instead of spa or the osterreichring.
