We're going the complete opposite way this time, and most
importantly, the diffusers will be made less efficient. Watch out
for Honda and BMW, they claim that they are almost ready with their
KERS.
You would think that would have learned from the ground-effects
saga of the early eighties to avoid increasing emphasis on
aerodynamic grip in favour of mechanical grip. Balestre was a
jerk, but he had some clue about racing unlike Mosley.
It could have been Kubica but BMW have admitted to making weak
developments in the middle of the season - or an early shift to
2009. They stagnated once other teams took notice of their aero
innovations.
As it is, neither Massa nor Hamilton are exactly fitting
champions, depending on the way you look at it. Massa hasn't
entirely convinced that he can stay out of trouble consistently,
while Hamilton's gesticulations and Schuey-style chops bring back
less-than-fond memories. It's been down to who made fewer mistakes
over the course of the season.
Mario'd better pull his finger out. After this year's
travesty, the fans deserve a real champ. Hell, right now I'd
even love for Rossi to swap over and put Hammie back in his little
suburban box.
All up, I'm ready to call the year right now given that either
result on Sunday will be a cruel joke on the fans. Good for
Kubica and Vettel - it sure as hell beats the "what race is Scum
not going to win"
snoozextravaganza of years past. Even better that Renault
came good towards the end and kept the big boys honest. The
sport's been mangled by the management since 1994, but this year's
penalties have really taken the cake. Ron needs to keep the
Sham under control, Hekki and Nelson need to get the hell out and
let real racers get on the grid - hell, they don't even have the
damn decency to be pay drivers. Nico and Quick Nick really
need to get back on their game.
Coulthard, we'll miss ya - who else is going to pass the champ
on the outside while flipping him the bird, and then threaten to
"kick three shades of shit" out of the former champ's flunky?
As for the rest - were there any other drivers on the track?
