Ohh wow, the amount of bad luck that kid had which has been absolutely no doing of his own...

2nd place to DSQ not his fault
Wheel not on properly not his fault
wing failure not his fault
10 sec penalty for release not his fault
10 spot grid penalty for Bahrain not his fault.

In 2 bloody races!

It's not a surprise - hire a damn good actor, tell him what to ask, and to switch on the charisma - but it was definitely one of the better interviews.

Massa needs to understand the universe doesn't revolve around him, at this level you play the team game first, ego second if you want to keep the peace.

But to give him his due, it did look like he left the door open a few times for teamie, but teamie couldn't,t use the gap to get past.

Apparantly a driver has passed out after the race. Because of the heat and the new weight rules

They should just drop the 2nd zone, Having 1 zone is good enough & I think it should be on the final straght rather than the start/finish straght.

Reason I say that is because I don't like how having the DRS zone on start/finish just see's drivers not wanting to pass into the final corner to ensure they don't get Re-passed with DRS on the start/finish straght.


We often see good racing from turn 1-4 without DRS so no need to add a zone there.


DRS was perfect today. No one steamed by and it helped with a lot of the overtaking we got, however little.

Lets not moan about it please, we have enough going on with the fuel saving etc ruining the potential for racing without focusing on other tiny issues.

Massa's engineer owes some royalties to Ferrari for using their copyrighted phrase.
Bottas' too, for copying Renault's Canada 2005 messages to Alonso.
Thought it was a new F1 race not a cover version :p

In terms of logistics, it isn't that much more expensive. It's just inconvenient for a lot of people really, but I think it's like this because they wanted to test in Bahrain.

Besides, there's probably a lot of people grateful it isn't Malaysia > China... (too soon?)

Says at a function not post race unless there is more information below the subscription bit. Still, it's a worry.

2013 only became SOS when pirelli changed their tyres. First half was quite enjoyable.

I can understand the need for the FIA to be hard on unsafe releases as its a safety issue, but to penalize the team/driver during the race and then for the following race is in my mind a daft and draconian measure. If it is that grave an infraction for the FIA then the black flag should be shown immediately and the car excluded from the race. They shouldn't be penalized for 2 races.

Also he didn't exit the pits, but stopped and they rectified the problem, surely that is punishment in itself? It's not like he drove out the pits knowing the wheel wasn't done up and did half a lap before it flew off, which I believe is what they want to prevent by having the rule.

Seems overly draconian, by today's logic, just moving forward half a car length is an unsafe release, even though doing that does save the day.

You know what, Massa should retire. He can't even disguise the fact he's slow.....and there were people saying he was "favorite" for 2014 :lol:

He left Ferrari after listening several times "Alonso is faster than you" and now have gone to Williams to listen the new hit "Bottas is faster than you" :lol:

"Michael is faster than you"

"Kimi is faster than you"

"Fernando is faster than you"

"Valtteri is faster than you"


damn, that's quite a streak. Was there ever a team order against Massa in Sauber? "Okay Felipe, Fisichella is faster than you, do not hold him up."
