is it? i thought they gonna moved it in paris instead of magny cours since magny cours is bankrupt or something.

yes financial problems and location (i.e. if it's not paris then its the province ), but as far as I know there are no tracks ready yet and they're looking at either around disneyland or roissy.

silverstong gp

1. kimi
2. fernando
3. lewis

the ferrari drivers were nothing short of excellent today . kimi and massa were incredible and hopefully this means that ferrari and mclaren will be competing strongly for each gp to follow (at least this means that there'll be some excitement)

[Issey]

I used to like Michael Schumacher but since he'd retired,i'll support anyone in an Ferrari outfit..haha

[scarlet'galz]

haha..the race commentator said: 'We'v been waiting for the real Raikkonen', hahaha yeah, So HAVE I. Let's celebrate the world, yihaaaaa..

[BiNueng]

I love F1! I support Ferrari <333
But Hamilton is also superrrrr talented. I couldn't believe how he has come this far...the fact that this is his first year in F1!

Kimi ans Massa Fighting!!
And a little cheer for Hamilton teehee~

[pallycute]

Yes I Love F1 too, but especially KIMI RAIKKONEN
I can't wait next GP in Nurburing> I want to Look he will win again

[lavachefolle]

[lavachefolle]

alonso wins on the wet at nurburgring after trailing massa for pretty much the entire race :/ i'd say good win but apparently he accused massa of trying to sabotage him or something ridiculous

kimi retired b/c of either "hydraulics" or horrible fuel strategy, as some say.
the latter seems a little incredible, and kimi was losing pace before his car just sputtered

[scarlet'galz]

have u guys seen the trully script of Massa VS Alonso?? hahaha Its so laughable!! Both men argued as if they were a baby cryin girlss, hehehe..Some quotes:

...
Alonso: How does it feel to be Msc's pinkberry?

Massa: I am not his pinkberry.

Alonso: Yeah, His Brazilian Lady Boy.

Massa: **** u!

Alonso: ****u!

....

hahahahahahaha..

[Aziraphale]

Is anyone following the fallout between Alonso and Hamilton after the Hungarian Grand Prix? Thoughts on the whole issue and McLaren's equality policy of not favouring a particular driver?

[selv]

alonso want to bcome the first driver in mclaren

hamilton kind of disturbing me
coz he told everyone that alonso doesnt talk to him

poor mclaren
so many problems this whole week

why ron didnt want pedro to join mclaren, rather than hamilton?
is it coz pedro's spanish?
i think pedro is much better than hamilton

any comment?

[The Stone Temple Pilot]

You've got to be joking me. You think that 2nd rate Pedro de la Rosa, the dude that hasn't accomplished anything in Formula 1, is better than a rookie that has been the class of the field the entire season?
Lets recap. Hamilton, a rookie, leading the championship in his first season. So the argument, he's got an amazing car. True, but Jacques Villeneuve had a championship winning car in 96' and didn't lead the title race anytime during that season. And he's got such a good car that he's beating his TWO TIME WORLD CHAMPION teammate? I think you should re-evaluate how you watch F1. De La Rosa isn't class, he's a test driver and will only ever be that. Hamilton is world class.

This comes from a hardcore Ferrari/Raikkonen fan btw.

[coreana_ira]

Yeah, What I can say that only because Lewis got such an amazing car. You might compare him with JV but what if Lewis got car such crap as MP4-22? I dont think so it wud work as well. Agree of what Kimi said when He was interviewed by Autosport..
...
Q :For Hamilton the season has started better than for anyone else. Dont you think its incredbile a rookie does so well ?
KR: He's good. He started in an ideal situation, in an ideal year. Had he made his debut in 2006, he would have suffered. He has been driving (testing) a lot on the tyres we use now and hardly did any testing with the Michelins. It doesn happen normally with debutants but McLaren is a first class team and their car is very strong. No, it's not incredible.
...

Yeah agree that Hamilton is much better than De La Rosa..But saying Hamilton is a world class, its still arguable.

[N Dey Say]

i watch f1 sometimes when i flip through channels. I was surprised to see a girl driver. you guys like danica patrick?

[The Stone Temple Pilot]

Sad reality about that is that Danica Patrick doesn't race in F1.

With regards to what Kimi said, I think he's absolutely right. But the only reason why I think Hamilton is World Class is because of what he's done to Alonso.
I don't think that anyone else on the grid (bar Kimi) could get into the same car as Fred Alonso and consistently go faster than him. He's doing it. It's hard to believe, but he is.
For a long time I regarded Alonso second only to Schumacher but, one has to admit, Hamilton is faster than him this season, at least for now.

[scarlet'galz]

Poor Kimi, He should be on 1st podium of Turkish GP. He was extreemly faster than Massa, arggh. Only bcause He made sm faults in Qualy costed him racing behind the racer who was slower than him. Five races more, hope Kimi will take the lead and sure win the rest. Go Kimi!

The full statement by the FIA

In an extraordinary meeting of the World Motor Sport Council was held in Paris on the 12th of September 2007, The following decision was taken:

"The WMSC has stripped Vodafone McLaren Mercedes of all constructors' points in the 2007 FIA Formula One World Championshiop an the team can score no point for the remainder of the season *.

"Furthermore, the team will pay a fine equal to 100 million dollar, less the FOM income lost as a result of the points deduction.

"However, due to the exceptional circumstances in which the FIA gave the team's drivers an immunity in return for providing evidence, there is no penalty in regards to drivers' points **.

"The WMSC will receive a full technical report on the 2008 McLaren car and will take a decision at its December 2007 meeting as to what sanction, if any, will be imposed on the team for the 2008 season."

The full reasons for this decision will be issued on the 14th September 2007.

* Points gained by other teams so far this season will not be affected.

** No McLaren representative will be allowed on the podium should a McLaren driver win in any of the remaining races of the 2007 season.

[lavachefolle]

fair decision, i think - at least the driver's championship will hold some good value

if you notice the emails between coughlan and the mclaren drivers, only alonso and de la rosa are involved as actively trying to develop and test the cars (braking, rear wing, etc.) - albeit using stolen information. in fact, there is quite a correspondence concerning how to use the new info and compare it to the mclaren system. now perhaps someone w/ more knowledge of mclaren can tell me, to what extent does lewis actually go and contribute to the development of the car?

[coreana_ira]

Yeah, but a big question mark surrounding my head, for how a team which has been dumped from the championship is still active on track for the driver champs. That's even so ridiculous, a travesty!

[aya_Cute]

go kimi go...

kimi sure has the bad luck...
hope next year is better for him...
