Not really a good news for Ferrari and Mickael He will have to show all his talent for his last race I think he could do it with a little help.

SHIT MS/Ferrari are going to have a very difficult race tomorrow....

As I understand, MS had a gearbox problem. Luckily, gearbox changes carry no penalties..

EDIT: What the hell is it with Ferrari and extremely-rare technical failures in the two most crucial races of the season???? :x

technical problems with schumi's car during these last 2 massively important races, coincidence?! i think not!

let the conspiracy theorists put their minds together and blame someone outside of the ferrari team, i dunno, lets say briatore ordered a couple of his well trained henchmen to sneak into the ferrari garage and and tinker with the cars? cause that's the only way ferrari is gonna salvage anything this season. this sux!

Anything can happen!

I for sure hope Schumi wins offcourse and that something happens to Alonso.

Lets hope it rains and the conditions are perfect for Bridgestone

They are probably using new spec things in adapting the next season's rules thus having the reliability issues.

don't know about the gearbox but the engine failure was caused by a system in the valves which they had been using since Silverstone...

Damn, Schumacher only in 10th. This sucks! But let's hope he can still do well.

Indeed. Raikonnen and Trulli could be taken out by Alonso who will try to pass them, causing a massive pileup, which everyone until Michael Schumacher gets caught in. Massa gives Schumi the lead after the restart and he wins the race and the championship. 8)

By the way, what's with Massa's new wildly coloured racing outfit? It's coloured like the Brazilian flag. How fitting...

I still think MS can win this race, with FM in second.

I think it its quite self-explanatory that MS will be going full out the entire race. He was by far the fastest man in Q2, so theres no denying his pace. I'm betting on him being 1s. per lap faster than anyone, save FM.

Alonso won't put up a fight, because its not worth it from his perspective.

Provided no technical glitches occur, my money is on MS, because of the unique combination of circumstances: its his last race, has nothing to lose but everything to gain!

BRING ON THE BRAZILIAN GP!!!



EDIT: Only NOW do I see why everyone writes "A l o n s o" the way they do...

Robert Doornbos in the RedBull is right behind him so expect him to help Schumi!!

Come on Michael! Come on Massa! Even if it isn't a world championship, It has been great, and I look forward to a great showing!
