Re: Is Alonso feeling the pressure

Lack of motivation shows from Alonsos face and acts in race track. He might even me slower than massa this weekend. I think for Alonso it's best to retire, santander can buy him out and Ferrari can get young, fresh and faster driver. Vettel + Newey on the team. The lack of motivation really shows a...

Re: Blue flag rule revisited

the blue flag is there for the slower backmarker cars. hamilton was neither slow, nor a backmarker. having a HRT battle a Ferrari when there is (theoretically) a 50kmph speed difference is dangerous. yet having a front running McLaren battle a ferarri at relative speeds, isnt.
