Couple of things "strike me"
---------------------------------------- If the pit lane is open the exit should also be open Unless there is a real hazard The stream of cars passing at low speed behind safety car should have been harder to hit than two stationary cars Also the exit from the pits feeds in to the track via a white line they manage it at race speeds I assume under safety car conditions they would have had to pick up the back of the pack.I dare say there is a protocol for this . LH picks up a ten grid slot penalty As does Nico Rosberg ---------------------------------------- [Edit 1 times, last edit by densnaps at Jun 9, 2008 7:45:25 AM] |

Well it's always interesting when one of the top drivers has to start down the grid.
Past experience shows that we see more overtaking and a bit of excitement - Remember Kimi last year. |

Well its the French Gp
----------------------------------------this weekend the drivers are revolting, Threats of strike at the Brit GP they think its costing to much for them to race race Licence could cost top drivers 170.000quid aw shame some of the drivers only scrape by on 2 or 3 Million £ One would think they had to pay for their own fuel and in England I could understand that |

Good quali for the red cars, go Kimi!
---------------------------------------- Massa was overdriving the car in the last lap. A bit dissapointing from especially BMW, quick Nick ain't quick, and Mclaren. Since LH will drop ten places on the grid he will have to ride one heck of a race if he wants to win like he said. It will almost be impossible but points shouldn't be a problem. Looking forward.  edited for language...cih [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Jun 22, 2008 6:43:16 PM] |

I don't think there's much doubt about the colour of tomorrow's winner but I am impressed with the improvement of Alonso. He could certainly be in the mix for the rest of the season.

How is that? Was your boiler broken or something?
Yes Alonso indeed impressive, I hope he has enough fuel with him. |
