firethorn, sorry to disappoint you but FA came in second, in front of MS.
MS really should have done better considering Ferrari/Bridgestone is the better combination this round.

hahaha.. no worries mate... It was a fun race.. And yea.. gotta agree.. MS should really have done better. Ferrari screwed up their pitstop too!! which was really bad..Originally Posted by Quixotic
Anyway... really happy for Massa.. he was sniffling here and there.. haha..

Guess what, after all the waiting for the race, was invited for dinner and came back at 10.30pm show over.
I think 1st ever win for Massa not even Ruben Barichello could have done that for a few years with Ferrari.(rememder Ruben was ordered to let MS overtakes to 1st place)

but rubens was so close in front.. haha.. anyway.. it's not ordered.. it's "hinted".. cuz actions not amounting to fair team play can lead to disqualifications... haha.Originally Posted by eddyq
Too bad Massa may not be able to stay on.. Was really hoping for next year to include MS & Massa together instead of Raikonnen and X..
I didn't managed to catch the race too! Had a chalet on Sunday for a colleague who is retiring. End up me being the guy fanning the barbecue pits while another colleague took the duty of cooking the food on it. Had a great time there as I've got another colleague who brought his X-Box console with a rally game and Forza Motorsport racing game. Did not sleep until 5 am!Originally Posted by eddyq
If you've learnt, teach, if you have, give.
Don't walk behind me as I might not lead, don't walk in front of me as I might not follow. Walk beside me, as my friend.
Mohamad Rohaizal is my name. If it's too hard, use BFG. I don't mind.

Alonso should win this year title, this guy always come in 1st, 2nd or 3rd when there no rain. As long he scores points MS cannot catch him.
There report that MS might retired from F1 2006.



i'll have to agree that it is too late for MS to challenge for the championship. 4 races to go and 12 pts adrift. Constructor's title is more likely for Ferrari

they still can challenge..
MS just needs to be 1st and Alonso third...
In 3 races we close the gap..

All that is needed is Alonso having a puncture or engine failure in 2 of the next 4 races....![]()
How about sending Masa to crash into Alonso in the opening lap...![]()

... no lah... too evil...

Desperate times needing desperate measures...

Or a wheel nut dropping off.
The cars are more or less evenly competitive, so very much will depend on the tyres and... their teammates!
FM and GF will come to the fore in in the last few races in their bid to help their teammates. More so for FM since he has already achieved his 1st win. He will definitely be going all out to help MS.
So there is a lot of cat and mouse game to be played.
Ferrari is also due to announce their drivers for 2007 at Monza...

then again, there might be someone praying for FA too. remember how a supposed to be a perfect weekend for the ferrari team came crashing down when V.Liuzzi spun his car and the safety car was deployed at lap 12, a time when all two-stoppers were due for pitting. both ferraris pitted and MS was in a queue. FA came out infront of MS and the rest is history.![]()
Reported in our local news that MS will retire end of this season!

Anyway official announcement only comes after Italian Grand Prix.

The source of the news is not actually Mediacorp, but from German newspaper, Bild. General feeling is that not everything reported by them is factual. A lot is based on speculations and rumours.
Anyway, the actual words being used are...
"Seven-time world champion Michael Schumacher will announce at this weekend's Italian Grand Prix that he is retiring at the end of the season, Germany's top-selling Bild newspaper reported."
The word "will" and "reported" will tell you that this is not a done deal. So just wait from the horse's mouth.
What is confirmed though is that, another Finn will be in F1. Heikki Kovalainen is confirmed for 2007 for Renault, Ricardo Zonta and Nelson Piquet Jr. are the test drivers.
I am tipping Piquet Jr. to be on the grid for 2008.![]()
