Nice move by Torro Rosso to replace Scott Speed with Sebastian Vettel.
I'm not concerned with any internal misgivings inside the Torro Rosso team. As a race fan, I never really felt that Scott Speed has actually raced for 1 full season already. My only fond recollection of him was during the last Hungarian GP when he frantically radioed his pit crew to put him on slick tyres (even while the race track was still wet), and as soon as he came out of the pitlane, he immediately gravel-trapped 3 times because he couldn't control the sliding of his car due to the slicks, so he came back to the pits and got the Intermediates back on. Nice call, Scottie!

Once again, for the second time this season, Hamilton fans are up in arms after McLaren appeared to have poorly executed its plans to put Alonso on Pole Position. You can see a dejected Hamilton after he failed to make the flying lap - he was driving like 10 mph back to the pitlane, a bicycle could have overtaken him.
I couldn't recall if the lollipop man did kept Alonso from going out. But I'm sure Alonso will never block Hamilton on that pitstop on his own decision. That would have been ridiculous. It's good that the FIA has decided to penalize Ron Dennis for his ill-executed race manipulation. You need more practice, Ron. Para hindi naman masyadong halata. Learn from Ferrari - forgetting to refuel Massa. What a bummer. :sleepy:

August 5th, 2007 11:01 AM #7I saw it on TV last night, the lollipop was up.
Sayang maganda sana yung laban nila kagabi.
This is an excerpt from planetf1.
When the drivers took their second quick runs Raikkonen took what was now P3 back off Heidfeld, but all the drama was reserved for the Mclaren garage. Alonso came in for his final set of tyres. They were bolted on and the lollypop raised, but Alonso had caught a glimpse of Lewis Hamilton stacked behind him and didn't leave.
Though he should have left his box for some reason the Spaniard decided not to. The timing of the final lap was critical and he had just seconds before he would be unable to complete an outlap and put in a valid timed lap. He remained where he was for 10 seconds before going on his way.

Oh, so the lollipop was up? Then two things are possible:
(1) The lollipop man didn't follow his script and raised the lollipop 11 seconds too early (he should be fired); or
(2) Alonso is not the clean sportsman he tries to project himself to be (in such case, his penalty is deserved).
All these drama have also masked the news that grass cutter Fisichella could be the guy that Flavio will kick out next year after signing up Piquet Jr. as Renault's race driver in 2008.
