[the viscount]

Well here we go for the race of the season.as expected Massa leads after the first practice session today with Hamilton 2nd Raikkonen 3rd and Kubica 4th Kovalainen 5th;; 2nd practice starts later this afternoon .

Come on Lewis

What time is qually on? wil I be able to get home (Littlehampton) after tommorrows match in time to see it?

Really looking forward to this. Lewis has to win it. I still don't rate Massa, I believe Vettel, Alonso, Hamilton, Raikonnen, Kubica, Heidfeld and my Gran are all better drivers.

 

[Wardy]

Lewis will have learnt his lesson. He knows that all he has to do is keep his car on the track and he will pick up the points he needs to win the title.

I still don't rate Massa,

Apart from anything else it's difficult to get his drive at Silverstone this season out of your mind isn't it. How many times did he spin turning into the straight? 7, 8 times?

 

[Icy Gull]

Massa only wins from the front, dull driver

 

[backson]

I've not watched the Brazilian Grand Prix before. Is that the one where there's just a strip down the middle?

 

[Easy 10]

Lewis is home and hosed as long as he doesn't go and do something really STUPID



oh.

 

[B.M.F]

Kimi has been so poor this season it is untrue. Ferrari must be well pissed off with him and just relieved that Massa is doing a good job for them ( no matter how dull his driving is ). For me Kubica has been the star of the season.

2nd practice done for the day and Alonso is 1st fastest with a time of 1-12;296, 2nd is Massa with Trulli 3rd and Rakkkonen 4th and Hamilton down in 9th with a time of 1-12;827 so not much in it for the first 9 Positions he will have to do a lot better on saturday we will await to see .

Seems Hamilton was always struggling on turn 6, and locking wheels all times there ,modifications were done on his car and heikke's but to no success lets hope its better on sunday.?

 

[Scotty Mac]

kimi is going to to be the key in this race - if he hasnt drunk 10 pints of vodka on saturday night and actually gives a toss about the race, then i can see him screwing hamilton up big time

come on lewis nearly there now we all hope you get the place for the point's . so you can take that world championship

 

[dougdeep]

If Lewis had a decent team mate he'd have it sewn up by now.

Given that this is only his 2nd season it is even more impressive. Last year he drew off the experience of Alonso for car setup which helped him be so quick in races, this year he's had to do it pretty well on his own as Kovalainen doesn't seem to have a clue. If he was paired with an experienced driver I think he would have walked this year's championship, so I totally understand Alonso wanting away from McClaren because with his help Lewis' car would have been phenomenal..imo. McClaren should have emplpyed an experienced driver to partner him.

Morning Viscount, I think Heiki is contracted for another year which, given his underperformances in most races this season seems a bit odd to me? Maybe no experienced drivers want to be shown up by Lewis. Personally I'd love to see Button or Webber at McClaren.
