I cannot believe the stewards decision against Bourdais. The tangle after exiting the pits was at worst nothing more than a racing incident which did not even warrant a investigation by the stewards let alone the stupid penalty that followed. :damn: Ironically it gave my man Webber a point in the end. :oops:

Bourdais just hasn't had any luck this season. Admittedly he looked very poor for the 1st few races but I think he's come on leaps and bounds during the 2nd half of the season only to suffer misfortune.

BTW I'm sorry to hear that we're losing Canada from the Grand Prix circuits next year, it was 1 of my favourite tracks. A real man's circuit, no doubt it'll be replaced by a circuit which has a ton of chicanes and no overtaking possibilities.
Oh and whilst I'm on my soapbox...bring back Hockenheim!!!

I'm hoping Massa wins this year. He deserves. He's always the fastest on the track, always the fastest laptimes, struggling hard from beggining to end, and Ferrari has screwing him up badly in a lot of races, lots of bad luck. He was supposed to be with at least 30+ points that he is right now. It's not happening with any other pilot, just with him. Not fair.

I think that you are stretching it a little there Thomsen. :lol: It is not entirely out of the realms of possibility that Massa and Hamilton may continue to stumble over each other in the final two races hence allowing Kubica to pinch the championship. Now that would be worth watching. :D

MM have screwed up LH as well. Massa did have a couple of brain fade moments at the start of the season too....as has LH.

Meanwhile Robert Kubica is plotting and planning with his Rubik's Cube. :-j

Well done today Lewis :up:

That's the mark of a champion. Talk in the track, make a clean start, an imperial race, stay away from trouble and polemics. Faultless and admirable from beginning to end. A top performance and probably worth the championship by now.:yep:

Agree with you on those sentiments Hitman. :yep:

Very well put sir....looks like the penultimate step to the title. http://www.psionguild.org/forums/ima...s/thumbsup.gif

Props to Hamilton for driving a solid race today, nobody could touch him, but I`m afraid I missed parts of it. This has to be one of the most boring races since 2004?

But ... the Ferraris will now both have new engines for the last round, while Hamilton will have to use his China engine. This means the red devils will have massice revs and full blast. I am putting money on a homeboy Massa win, he did after all move over for Raikkonen last year at the same track.

All Hamilton will have to do is remember he is not racing the Ferraris in Brazil, he only need 5th place to clinch the championship. (Strangely, thats the EXCACTLY the same scenario as last year:huh:)

So, Hamilton WDC and Ferrari WCC is my bet.

The Mayor of Montreal, a provincial (Quebec) government minister, and a federal government minister are travelling to London today to meet tomorrow with Bernie Ecclestone in an effort to save the 2009 Canadian GP.

I had to chuckle on hearing His Worship saying that they were going to "negotiate" with Bernie. Somehow I don't think it's going to work that way. Estimation of cards held by Bernie vs cards held by the "Negotiators": 52:0

Could be a good concept for a new TV show, though. ... "The Negotiators" ... a team of crack negotiators intervenes to break through the toughest negotiating logjams :rotfl:

The loss of Canada is more than ridiculous. I just don't understand how all of North America will have no GP while Spain gets 2! Don't get me wrong, Spain is a great country, but Valenica is a real yawner of a circuit and I don't see how one country gets more races than a continent with more than half a billion people living in it! I say F1 needs not only Canada, which is a great race, but a street race in the US (Chicago, New York or DC) to bring F1 back to prominence in America, and a race in Mexico as well! I understand that F1 is a European sport right now but I think that there is a huge potential motorsports audience in the US that is looking for a racing series that features MODERN cars that make left and right turns.:damn:

Also, looks like Ferrari is getting fed up with Mosley's plans for spec engines:hmm:

Tell that to me! :roll: I was born and live here in Valencia, and the F1 circuit is one of the most disgusting wastes of money I have ever seen (And there have been many around here lately). Not just because we had already a good -and F1 approved- circuit in Cheste (40 km away from Valencia, where MotoGP raced this last weekend), not just because it has meant a lot of trouble for people living nearby, not just because of the huge and unacceptable cost of building it, but simply because it provides one of the most boring races of the calender. A total disaster in my opinion, and if I'm not wrong, looks like it even LOST money in the F1 race. Oh, and another stupid thing was to make the race in August....when everybody is away from the city due to it being impossible to live here with the heat and the huge humidity.

:damn: The race is too many hours away. Will it rain? Will Lewis survive T1 with Fernando beside him? Will Massa overcook? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEGH!
