COMMENT FROM STRACING:

damn how unlucky were the schumacher brothers?
hope MS can storm thru the field tomorrow. luckily for him raikonnen isn't that far ahead as well
should be exciting tho seeing the fast runners are at the back.[/b]

[SFDMALEX]

Well, I feel really sorry for M.Schumaherm 14th is defenetly not what Ferrari aimed for, but we all saw how fast rubens was, so we can assume that it wont be a big problem for Schuey to overtake the rest of the field if his car is as good as Rubinos car was in qualy.

[Jabba]

Not ideal...but he only needs to cruise around to collect his one point...best of luck to kimi whos got to win it...he sure is gonna need it :fist:

[SL55 AMG]

Rubens Kicked serious ass though. Watch Montoya hit him out again in first corner. But horrible luck for the Schumacher brothers and Trulli. I feel Kimi made out with the weather compared to Michael. Going to be a great race for the end of the season either way, Great track and records about fall.

[gis]

race will sure be exciting

rubens did awesome,i bet montoya wishes he did well the last race,he would be in a VERY good position for the championship right now.

its going to be very interesting for kimi,it is still not over for him,if coulthard could help him out it would help him,but the front 2,montoya and rubens will be trouble for him

[noosee]

It will be a good race
Kimmi 8 Shummi 14 and Kimmi told he will do anything to take the title.
And yes they can send Courhard one lap down to repeat Belgium 1998.

And right after F1 it will be Moto GP on Eurosport

[Jabba]

Well they have done it folks !!!!

CONGRATULATIONS FERRARI, SHUMEY AND BARICHELLO !!!

[SDK2003]

Good race

Congrats to Schumacher for his 6th Championship and Ferrari for their 5th constructors title in a row

[noosee]

Cool Race.
6st title with no current champions racing.
It will take forether to beat Shumi
Sato was the hero of this one He made it impossible to overtake

[frodefe]

even though Schumacher won his 6th Champions
- i think it's near impossible for him to win the next........
