Default what rely happend to MS in china!

well we all know that ferrari has "prioritys" when it comes to car setup's!

well there was a terrable mistake in the ferrari team in china...
Rubans got Michael's car!!
i mean comon, we all know ferrari doesent give 2 shits about rubans cars, and only cares about michael's setup, so im guessing there was a terable mixup!

guess some heads will be rolling at ferrari after there fav son diden't get the best car!

*this is a joke*

you got me there for a second.

Anyway why would they change setups? Schumi can lap the field in a Minardi.

i think schumi picked the wrong tires, they offten run ferrari's on different compounds, and schumi just got the wrong one, or picked the wrong one for this track,

and just a thought on the track, not a good idea to build it on a swamp, first look at mexico city, and 2nd, new track, huge damage already. i think this is going to be the most expensive track to fix up every year.

Martin Brundle said "and for good measure MS sets the fastest lap of the GP on the last lap just to say I'll be back at Suzuka"...... how very true

I agree with Toronto, tires are really the only things that can varry alot between the cars on a particular team. Shumi just picked the wrong ones, maybe he thought that the track conditions were going to change so he would need a different compound.

Yeah, toronto does have a point about the tires. But if he managed to set fastest lap on the wrong compound, he pretty much just erased all doubt form anyone's mind that he is the master.

I don't know how he could compare himself with Senna.....

A donkey with a stick in the ass will still be no where as fast as a horse.

I think in British F3 they were pretty close but Martin was more experienced than Senna at the time. Then they went to F1 and Senna's star went thru the stratosphere while Martin stayed as a midpack guy for the rest of his career

Well, speed in F3 is relatively slower......I guess it hides abit of the difference in skills...
