I missed what happened to Massa towards the end of the race, did he get hit by Kobayashi?

edit:

Felipe Massa: "What do you want me to say, nothing went right today! From lap 8 onwards I started to feel there was something not right at the back of the car and, at the end of the race, the team found some damage that had completely ruined the balance and the aerodynamic downforce level. From being able to attack the Force India, I went to losing a second a lap! I am very disappointed, because I had a good pace and could keep up with the group Fernando was in. Then there was also the collision with Kobayashi and there, any hope I had of finishing in the points evaporated. The car was going very well today and it was at the level of the best, I am pleased for Fernando, who drove a fantastic race to win, but there's also some bitterness as today could have been very nice for both of us."

So far one of the best races this season. At Valencia even !!!
I loved the 2 old guys slicing and dicing all the way. Forget battling it out just lead/follow all the way to the front. So much fun to watch.

Part of me thinks this was great bc of the retirements too...but still...that's part of life. I love how close the field is...!

Kimi needs to step it up, b/c Grosjean...is becoming the leader quickly. Out-qualifies and out races his older & more experienced WDC team mate. Impressive kid for sure...

Kimi was showed up by Massa in '08 and potentially now by Grosjean. For all we know, Grosjean never really progressed all that much since his last stint in F1 and we just haven't seen how fast that Lotus really is. Perhaps in the hands of someone like Alonso/Vettel/Hamilton the car would be leading the WDC right now. :dunno:

Macro Helmet is quickly becoming the new Flavio :mamoru:

Maldanado spent the whole race running people off the track, then when he gets run off the track he hits the guy who did it, and complains about being run off.

Kobi causes some ruckus, but typically doesn't turn around and complain about the people he hit.

Interesting theory.

Flavio is a pimp. Marco needs to be out banging supermodels if he wants to be like him. :cool:

It's possible...but I feel like he has progressed greatly since his last stint in F1. And why shouldn't he? He took a step back, matured his skills in GP2 and now he's fighting for wins and poles. IF anything, Kimi is driving the car to its potential, and Grosjean is exceeding the car's potential. To me, he's the real deal. That pass on Lewis today showed real maturity...and parking it in a gap in the fence. Kid is 'aware'

Couldn't say that the track crew was aware. When they were rolling vettell's car down the track while they were waving green flags. Fucking F1 cars screaming down the track 5 meters from them. Idiots!
