Japanese Grand Prix-Spoiler Alert! - LotusTalk

What?! Are we all too glued to the wacky opening laps to start typing?

I'd say somebody doesn't have his rash side under complete control yet!

I'm guessing Massa's running heavy fuel. Hamilton's running under heavy pressure (and I'm not talking tire pressure).

Good morning. I was waiting for a commercial break.

milehitom · 10-11-2008, 09:57 PM

It's gonna be crazy-stuff is happening faster than I can type! I see Sebastien Bourdais on the podium...hey, it could happen.

Massa should get a 10 sec stop. Not just a drive through. IMO

milehitom · 10-11-2008, 10:07 PM

I think Massa's drive through cost him more time.

Of course, had Lewis not made his crazy turn 1 attempt (and straight line through the grass), he and Felipe never would have mixed it up in turn 2.

I'd say it was fair for both. I wouldn't be surprised if Lewis received a monetary penalty later.

Ham's car must be damaged. He's losing massive amounts of time. Whatever that was that fell off his car as he exited his first pit probably was from his car. Not his day...

Nawambo · 10-11-2008, 10:20 PM

whew, what a race... talk about drama.

I'm pulling for Massa, come on, you can do it!

Cegan09 · 10-11-2008, 10:25 PM

That was a crazy start. Not a religious F1 fan, but i watch when i can.

Green Ghost · 10-11-2008, 10:34 PM

Dumb first turn move by Hamilton, I agree a drive through was disserved.
Massa full on rammed, on purpose, Hamilton after going off track on his owned trying to defend. Needs more then a drive through if Hamilton has points/a win taken away from him for doing nothing.

And when it comes to Ferrari I want Massa to beat Kimi.

I like the shake up, nice to see something different up front. fun race

milehitom · 10-11-2008, 10:40 PM

Massa is rolling now! Wow!

Green Ghost · 10-11-2008, 10:46 PM

Go BMW-Kubica

milehitom · 10-11-2008, 10:46 PM

What a dice with Kimi and Robert!

Green Ghost · 10-11-2008, 10:53 PM

Three car battle!!!!!

Nawambo · 10-11-2008, 10:57 PM

Come on Massa, pick up a few more spots and get some much needed points...

milehitom · 10-11-2008, 10:57 PM

I'm amazed at how differently cars eat up their tires. Webber's lefts are skinned. Kimi has kept plenty of rubber on his Ferrari. I'm expecting a great battle at the end. Massa should get a point. That would be quite an accomplishment.

Tom

Green Ghost · 10-11-2008, 10:59 PM

o-well, no three car battle

Nawambo · 10-11-2008, 11:01 PM

Woo hoo, nice pass!

milehitom · 10-11-2008, 11:06 PM

What a race!

It'll probably come down to Brazil. Wow.

Tom

Green Ghost · 10-11-2008, 11:07 PM

Glad to see Alonso get it

turbophil · 10-11-2008, 11:07 PM

Wow. Just Wow... that was great...
