German Grand Prix

The German Grand Prix deserved to be won by a dominant Ferrari. It was just the other guy who should have been allowed to take that win especially on the anniversary of Massa's horrendous accident last year. As I didn't say last time is brewing up nicely for a 5-way, 2 1/2-team fight to the finish. We have an outright winner again for this race - congratulations to rpoynter. A prize will be on its way shortly.

Friday analysis - more in reserve at McLaren?

FIA Friday press conference - Italy
Technical directors: Aldo Costa (Ferrari), James Key (BMW Sauber), Paddy Lowe (McLaren), Sam Michael (Williams), Adrian Newey (Red Bull). Q: A question to you all. Can you tell us about your Monza specifications? What have you changed? Are you running the F-duct if you have an F-duct? Sam Michael: Our Monza spec is just for Monza really. We didn't actually put a lot of work into it as it is only one race, so we put a lot of our effort into the next race as it pays off for five Grands Prix rather than one...

En route to Monza
I left for Italy very early yesterday morning and drove. It was a good thing to do, rather than spending the day mulling over the daft decision by the FIA World Council. Here was, in my opinion, a valid opportunity for the federation to make a statement not only about the rules and regulations, but [...]
