[Round 14] Monza
Kimi did it! He extended his contrac till 2011. Well the question is if he did it before or after the last two races

Re: [Round 17] Monza
Who cares about Räikkönen, when you look at the conditions that are predicted for the weekend. Loads and loads of rain, in Monza! That will be extremly interesting...
Re: [Round 17] Monza
The weather conditions look really interesting, indeed. Apparently, Rain is predicted for tomorrow as well.
But generally, I just hope this will be a fair weekend, from all sides, no matter what happened last weekend.

Re: [Round 17] Monza
I just love Monza and I`m really looking forward for the race. When I play GP2 I mostly play that track and I really hope for rain! Let`s see how the whole things develop, maybe we`ll have both Toro Rossos again in Q1
Kimi beeing confirmed ends up some speculations and makes BMW the best team with one seat available. But I think they should confirm Heidfeld, he has shown some great maneuvers this year!

Re: [Round 17] Monza
I didn't see the qualifying as well, really too bad!
But anyhow, this result promises a very interestin race. Today will be an exiting motorsports day, also because the title fight in the LMS will be decided.
Btw: Spa was round 13, so because 13+1 is 14, Monza is round 14...

Re: [Round 17] Monza
Wow! What a drive from Vettel, a thoroughly deserved victory, I was really pleased for him, and judging from the reaction of the crowd, so was everyone else! This is just what F1 needed after the farcical events of last week. Wasn't it strange to hear the German national anthem followed by the Italian one, and not see Michael Schumacher anywhere near the podium...
An interesting point: where did Kubica come from? He's brought himself back into play in the championship to a degree with a quiet drive to third.

Fantastic race. The good thing for Vettel was that the start was behinde the safty car. Start-finish win..... Remember the former team STR: Minardi This is a perfect example for what you are able to do if your account is "full" of cash

Re: [Round 14] Monza
I think this was a really nice weekend, showing that you can still have some success with a smaller, more independent team in the current Formula One if the circumstances are "right". It was very important with this difficult kind of weather to have some experienced people in the team to make the right decisions at the right time, and in addition to that, Vettel delivered a really good race performance, which was surprising for me, too. Nice to see that under these circumstances, he and STR were able to keep other drivers in what are normally understood to be the better cars at bay.
Very disappointing for them to basically lose Bourdais at the start with that problem, though. I guess Vettel is glad that whatever happened there didn't happen to him.
The race of the two current main title contenders was interesting for me, too. I personally had thought Massa would be able to gain more positions and get onto the podium from how far to the front he started, in the end he finished some seconds in front of Hamilton. Hamilton did some interesting maneuvers there, on the other hand, but seemed to be unable to gain more ground or positions in the last part of the race on intermediates when the track conditions appeared to be improving.
Solid result for BMW too, having Kubica on the podium and Heidfeld not far behind in 5th position.
Now we'll see what happens on the 22nd, and regardless of that, I think there are enough reasons to be looking forward to (hopefully!) a nice premiere in Singapore...

Re: [Round 14] Monza
Well, what an amazeing race! Vettel has never been in trouble and scored the victory in a very supreme way. Ferrari never had really a chance for the podium and, after getting intermediates, also Hamilton who drove a very offensive race with some extremely hard maneuvers
Too bad Bourdais lost all chances before the start and Fisico risked too much
Well, now I`ll switch my GP2 on and go for my Monza race here

Re: [Round 14] Monza
Words are really missing for what Vettel and Toro Rosso did that weekend. Amazing!
When I look at how Hamilton drove today, I have to agree at his penalty from the last race. How he pushed Glock off the track, was very dangerous and not fair at all. This would have deserved a penalty, I think. He can be lucky, that Glock could keep the control.

Re: [Round 14] Monza
I didn't see the incident with Glock, but bearing in mind what happened at Spa I thought Hamilton was lucky to get away with his move on Webber when he appeared to move over on him at the very last second! That could have been a nasty accident.

Re: [Round 14] Monza
What a great winner we have in Vettel, he seems such a nice, relaxed guy.
He reminds me of Schumacher in different ways, not only by the national anthems.
(What about his face? )
What can you say about Hamilton? He did several questionable manouvres today, not only with Glock and Webber, those were the most clearest cases. I saw he had contact with Fernando as well, just by cutting him off to soon at the end of the main straight.
I guess this time the stewards didn't want the whole UK to get upset with them once more, but in my opinion Lewis certainly deserved a penalty for all his actions combined.
