Whenever Schumi isn't in racing overalls, he's wearing the eurotrash uniform.

He dresses like a punk kid...

Hammy is pretty damn stylish though...

Honestly, being a bit more stylish is something i've been trying to do. I keep putting it off because I tell meself I can't afford it though.

I think its just all Hugo Boss stuff. Which some people seem not to hold in much regard here in the states?

Sato is the man. Seeing that bomb on alonso was so awesome. That day was magic.

So Alonso did what I think Vettel did in Istanbul, and upped the power, after both he and Massa had been told to turn the wick down by the team?

* The FIA, via their 'reporter; did not find that Fernando was faster than Felipe. In the laps before the lead of the race changed, both drivers were ordered to reduce their engine revs and then 'Mr Fernando Alonso increased his engine speed without Mr Felipe Massa being informed. Mr Fernando Alonso was therefore benefiting from a definite performance advantage over Mr Felipe Massa in the moments preceding the contentious overtaking'.

Didn't Jenson do this as well in Turkey? I can't remember the specifics.

Hamilton was told that both cars were saving fuel, and to turn the engine down. That was from Lewis' engineer that was guessing that was the plan.

Apparently, Jenson had saved more fuel than they realized, and had some extra time on full power, which he used to catch Lewis. Then they started going back and forth, with the team screaming to both of them to save fuel or they wouldn't make the end of the race.

IIRC, after the race, Lewis had 1/2 lap of gas left, Jenson had 1 lap.

i don't know what it is about alonso but as long as he has his helmet on i love the guy. soon as he takes it off and he opens his mouth i just wanna punch him in the face.

great drive for him though. if there was one race i'm glad he won it was Monza

his personality is going back to being a dick, but as a driver, love him...

good drive from skittle but 52 laps on the soft, 1 lap on the hard... goes back to my complaint about the tires lasting too long though...

They need to make the soft tire seriously faster but only last 25% of a race max, and the hard tire slower but can last at 50% of a race. The only reason I don't see that happening is because Bridgestone will want to have the image that their tires seem to last forever without giving up performance.

great race. it practically undid the damage to the championship done in belgium. go button!

[kngrsll]

yeah, that was a great race! an all out race long fight, i loved it

[Dr. Jimmmah!]

Anyone surprised at how robust the Ferrari wheel/suspension/axles are? Thats twice in 2 races and they still keep on chugging along after getting hit hard.

[yonson]

I don't care what any of you faggots say about him, I still hate that fucking emotardo asswipe...
