ARRRRGH!!!!
I forgot to record the race last night and i turned on the replay just in time to hear Schumacher's announcement :x The one fuckin race i absolutely had to see and i miss it :x
3 races to go, 2 points off from Alonso...i would say an engine failure today surely seals up a full fledged choke on Alonso's end.
Would i be shocked to see Alonso pull an Adelade and try to take out Schumi at Suzuka if he was losing? maybe a little, but most of my money is going to ride on him just losing focus

I'm just glad Alonso actually has to try and win the races now, instead of settling for consecutive runner-ups.

Too bad about schumi he really will be missed(unlike villeneuve said). Kimi to ferrari can't say i wanted it but if he manages to win the titile next year than he really deserves it. He could have been world champion twice by now, had it not been for mclaren's unreliability. Oh and he would have been the youngest world champion in 03 had he won the title.

Tis a shame we where robbed of a Kimi vs Schumi showdown which could hv been comparable to Senna vs Prost. But hes certianly left on a high. Its difficult to swallow and I think he still has it, but...
end of an era :cry:
I do believe the FIA is biased towards Ferrari and the decision was bad, but Alonsos engine failed and hes still a moaning c*nt

^No kidding.....BMW took Sauber all the way to podium, that's quite some achivement. Tho next year we need to adjust to F1 without Schumi, but it looks pretty interesting.

MSC retiring is good IMO, hes probably the best driver ever and hes made exceptional things that are probably not going to be equalized soon...

that was Button @ Australia.
So Alonso won't get penalized.

Flasshole Briatore: "The result was influenced...."

Raikkonen was running on Michelins and he was able to come within 2-thousandths of Michael's qualy time, and stayed ahead or within 2 seconds of Schumacher during the race.
Renault need to stop crying for a while and instead figure out how to go faster.

More like get pole position. Bridgestone had a slight edge at Monza. Too bad for Michelin. Ferrari had the wood over everyone at Monza. Too bad for everyone else. They've just got to improve for the next race.
