    the italian grand prix was marred by the dubious penalty given to Alonso. i'm a big Alonso and Renault fan and i am disgusted at what happened to Alonso. if Alonso was up there at the sharp end of the grid, i am sure that he would have given Schumi and Ferrari a run for their money. damn those stewards. looking forward to the Chinese Grand Prix where Schumi's record is not so flattering- a DNF and a 12th place finish.

    There would be always somebody saying they've been cheated or its unfair and all that when the results DOES NOT suit them. I find this kind of attitude equally "unsporting" as well. I guess this attitude is becoming quite common around. In the Philippines, its the same esp. with elections and court cases, etc. where the loser would always cry afoul of injustice.

    Why cant they just move on instead of crying over spilled milk? Do a better job next time instead of dwelling with "what ifs". And if these all those alleged cheats and claims of farce are really unbearable then there are other motorsports to go to that MIGHT actually be free of it. Now whoever said life was ever fair.

    did you see the qualifying on tv? or are you just commenting on something you don't actually know? because there's a fine line between commenting on a situation/event that you actually know/ are familiar with and commenting just for the sake of posting.

    you have to put everything under the context of the situation. sure, life is not fair. whoever said life is fair? and yes, renault and alonso will move on. however, given all the brouhaha surrounding the italian grand prix, one cannot fault the other for speaking his mind given the person has FACTS/or has a knowledge of the situation. im not an F1 expert, however it doesnt take a rocket scientist either to see how in hell alonso ever blocked/impeded massa's flying lap and in turn suffer a penalty that greatly jeopardized his race and possibly costing him the WDC.

    and btw, iv seen some dirty tactics and cheatings through the years, from 1997 up to the present. however, i love F1 that's why im giving my .02 now and iv learned to love it despite those things.

    and oh, peace!

    actually, renault and alonso were complaining about the stewards' decision BEFORE the gp started. and if you saw the qualifying medyo suspicious naman talaga yung decision. i'm still a fan of schumi though, great race!

    during the qualifying even the commentators thought that alonso might have blocked massa.

    I am sure a another conspiracy theory about Ferrari having something to do with the Renault's blown engine will spring up here somewhere. :evillaugh

    As I've said before... watch a non-contact sport (like checkers) if you can't take the heat of F1 racing. :evillaugh

    Malaki ba ang influence ng Ferrari sa mga stewards?!?!?

    Anyway a win is a win for Schumi.Too bad FA's engine blew pero that could've been prevented if he did not push the car too hard. A good driver should know better, and how come FA's team did not caution him. May mga engine sensors naman to prevent it from blowing. Ewan hehehehehe....

    Ferrari has enormous influence with the FIA in general, and Bernie in particular.

    Of course, I'm not one for conspiracy theories, so I'll just rate it as a "bad judgement call". Like the non-call on Barrichelo in qualifying at Monaco (where MS got slapped on the wrist for his spectacularly farcical stall).

    Stewards are like referees. They're not perfect, and they won't always make the right calls, but if they were in collusion with anyone, or under the suspicion of collusion, it would make the sport less fun to watch.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    no way jose'. schumi had an amazing lap when kimi pitted. then, during his in and out lap he was way faster too. thats the reason why schumi was ahead when he left the pits. i thought this strategy was trademark schumi-brawn, so its quite puzzling why people have difficulty understanding how schumi can pass someone after a pit-stop.
