Massa? Really? I mean.... I guess I like the guy... but really, he's your number 2?

His style of telling the world he's number one after he wins a race?

When he wins he isn't thankful, he's arrogant. "I'm #1, I'm #1, I'm #1".

Nope, he should be getting replaced by Vettel.

I don't like his style on the track. He's not much of a gentleman, and strange things seem to happen wherever he is in the grid.

I want Vettel to start racking up a few wins too, he'll have his day though I'm sure. Might take a while for him to get consistant and build more top level experience, but he'll get there. It looks like he has the raw talent, just like Hamilton did when he came into the game. I think over the next year or two, Massa is going to do something stupid at some point (or at least get caught doing it), Kimi is going to get transitioned out, as is Alonso, and the big battles will be between Lewis, Heikki, Vettel, and Kubica.
I also think that McLaren should win a constructors championship at some point or they will pack up their toys and go elsewhere. I'd be more than a bit discouraged if I did that well as a team and constantly found out that the deck was stacked against me in favor of Ferrari.. I guess I'm still bitter about the chicane incident and the circumstances surrounding it, and all the other little things that have been tilted toward the red team somehow.

You guys have no style, or class. It's all about the underdogs. I really wish Honda was more competitive this year as both drivers look good, but have shitty cars. And it was all about Super Best Friends. I mean, c'mon. Even if they suck, they have probably the coolest team name, evAr.

I pretty much agree.

I'm still undecided on the chicane thing. I think the issue at hand is that Louise wouldn't have been able to get close enough to Kimi to make a pass at that corse if he wouldn't have blown the chicane. If it's true or not... I don't know. I do think the punishment was a little steep, but if he was viewed as gaining track position by blowing it, something had to be done. I think the punishment should have come in the form of a grid penalty at the next race. Taking a win he obviously deserved was a little over the top.

As far as a Ferrari bias... I honestly think the FIA carries a bias for MM and Ferrari. Both side shave legit arguments to support their cause. Those two manufacturers are the ones lining uncle Bernie's pockets.

You haven't read all my posts have you? Some of the best cars in F1 history have had carried the Honda name. I will always support Honda's F1 efforts. You have to understand why I'm not excited to talk about them this year. There's just nothing to talk about. I think within 2 years you'll start seeing a competitive efford come from the Honda camp. Ross had done it before, and I think he'll be able to do it again.
