Hello
Yes a little snore of a race but this track is prone for that.
Yes if Alonso had hit that Ham all hell would have been broken lose.

I think that If Massa would have not gotten off first he would have lost it.

Con grates to BMW 3 & 4 positions and Kubica for a very strong race.

It was quite a boring race.

I think it's mainly because the three top teams aren't really closely matched right now (in terms of lap time), so the gap between them gradually gets bigger during the races. Ferrari have a good few tenths per lap over BMW, and McLaren are simply all over the place in terms of performance and strategy, so we never get to see close fights between the top teams.

Let's hope the improvements each team brings to Barcelona helps close them up a bit (in other words McLaren and BMW improve their cars a bit more than Ferrari).

No aids, and Alonso was complaining McLaren taking his setup and use it for Hamilton... No more driver that can make good setup to share with Hamilton, and no aids for driver... My opinion. Ferrari are still the best car (not saying driver with no «S») and BMW Vs McLaren? lets see if things will be in few more race, but BM is in good way.
