2006 F1 Spanish GP

At Imola the Ferrari team were able to use Felipe Massa as a brake to Alonso's progress in his battle with Michael Schumacher, it will be very tempting for the Renault team to do likewise tomorrow. Though we are unlikely to get a feast of overtaking, it will be another titanic strategy battle -

:car: Renault versus Ferrari

Below are the results:

What an absolutely boring race .... if you can even call it a race. The gaps were so wide the cars were absolutely cruising in the last 21 laps. Now that we've gotten rid of this one, I'm looking forward to my upcoming favorite circuit in 2 weeks time: MONACO!!!!

seems that a lot of cars are out of balance during raceday...

schumi was able to pull off a 1m14s+ lap during qualifying... but during raceday it was only 1m16s+ by massa.

brilliant opening by raikonnen... jumping form 9th to 5th (by splitting the toyotas).

not much overtaking here... except for the two midlands dicing it out.

though brilliant pitstop strategy by ferrari for schumi! just in time to overtake fisi.

Boring? How did Schumi pass Fisichella? When's the replay on Star? I was out during the race!

EDIT: Nasagot na pala ni M2... ehehe... bagal ko magpost!

**mazdamazda** · May 15th, 2006 11:34 AM

most probably, raceday replay will be later

**niky** · May 15th, 2006 11:56 AM

Agh... can't wait... I think I've caught replays on Wednesday and Friday last week... hintayin ko nalang... but if it's a strictly no passing thing, beh... was Schumi closing in on Fernando after he passed Fisi in the pits? It would be telling as to how the rest of the season will go.

Poor Kimi... looks like McLaren's engines aren't on par with the new Renault and Ferrari units (as so publicly demonstrated by JPM not so long ago when he blew one).
