Re: Sutil's race... Please explain

I have a question, How would it have turned out if Sutil had started on SS tyres? Would he have just landed at 7th or better or worst?

Re: Alonso airbrushed from Mclaren history

That page is the list of McLaren's 50 greatest drivers. And they stipulated that it is what they brought to McLaren, not where they stand with their career as a whole. Hence why Mansell is so low in the list. Given what happened with Alonso at McLaren I think his reason for not being in the list gi...

Re: Unbelievable! Ferrari screws Massa in the first race

We don't know who's call the pit stops were, Massa could've declined the first stop and Alonso took the prerogative. If Ferrari were wanting Alonso in front they would've asked Massa to move over when he was only half a second in front. No need to jump to conclusions so quickly. Not jumping to conc...
