is there other topics i can choose other than complaining abt stupid Ferrari tactics?
1. Brawn continuing dominance.
many expected last race at Bahrain was the end of Brawn dominance. and with teams heavily upgraded, many expect them to slip down the field. but yet they continue to show how good are they, just like 2004 time when Ferrari had the pair of Schumacher and Barichello. Barichello still in Brawn but with Button this time. another person that can really show his prowess given the right car, Button is now famous all over. if teams cannot improve by Turkey GP, Brawn can really wrap the campaign this year.
2. home-hero Alonso.
Spanish GP is the hometown of Alonso and he repaid the fans that come and watch this race very well. a fifth position. the Renault car is still apparently not efficient, but how many Times Alonso has helped them? really a true stuff.
3. improved Ferrari but usual baffled tactics.
tell me, 5 races and this team make 4 race errors liao and i really have to pity Massa for not scoring more than the 3 pts he get today and for the other races so far. let's recap what happen to him so far.
Australian GP: mechanical failure, out of race
Malaysian GP: team told him his lap very good to go through to Q2, in the end out in Q1. ended finish 9th in race.
Chinese GP: another mechanical failure, out of race
Bahrain GP, unluckiness, crash into Raikkonen, ended outside top 8
Today, Spanish GP: get as high to 2nd, drop back to 4th, should have settled for that until the race engineer told him this "we miscalculated the fuel load in your car, u need to conserve some if not u will not finish the race". behind him was Vettel. he had no choice to drop to 5th and worse of all, still have to be passed by Alonso, finished 6th.
tell me, if all have not happen, what Massa would get, as least in double digits. so is his fault? no. is the team fault. as for Raikkonen, another KERS failure. this is the Ferrari team that resembles the 2005 team. no tactics at all. so sickening.
2 weeks and we have the 1st street circuit. Monaco GP !
