What he said. Great work fella. -
It's better for Hamilton to be pressured now and learn how to deal with it, then in future seasons when BMW have fully established themselves as a winning team. It was only a couple of months ago that Massa was being branded as a numpty, and will be replaced, now he is leading the WDC, Raikkonen has also had a couple of bad races, so Hamilton is quite lucky that most of the big players have made mistakes this season. Of course Kubica hasn't but I don't think the BMW are fast enough to win him the title, and will have to rely on the others being unfortunate.
Kovalinen has shown that he's very fast (Mostly runs heavier than Hamilton, and shows similar level of pace) If only he was not so unfortunate this season, maybe he could have a dig at the title too

Oh yeah, what's hampered Kovalinen this year? I haven't seen much of him doing very well, at least not that I can remember.Comment

Kovi has had a run of bad luck, and coupled with being the clear number two in that team, he has his work cut out.
What I like about kovi is, he appears to be approachable and holds his hands up when he makes a mistake, rather than spit his dummy out - Mclaren have also gone on record stating that they value him very highly and that he is very popular within the team.
I hope things work out for him at Mclaren, but he does need to string some results together - France was a start. He certainly has the pace, and generally outshone Lewis in pre-season testing, but on the grid is it where it counts. I just hope he doesn't fall into second driver mentality.Comment

His only poor result due to his own driving so far this season was in Canada. I was disapointed that he qualified 6th in France, but then I learnt he was running heavy, and was only 0.25 seconds behind his teammate. Next season I want him to fight for the title.Comment

Interesting Moto GP race today. A rare mistake from Rossi, unexpected podium from Edwards and a dominant win from Stoner. Good stuff.Comment

Poor Hayden, what a gutter to run out of fuel right in the last corner, loved the way he went all aero to try and creep across the line though
Poor show from Rossi but like you said Paulos, a rare mistake and I'm sure one of the very few we'll see from him this season.
What's happened to JT? Not looking so clever now is he, especially that Edwards is able to get decent results out of the same bike.Comment

Stoner is really hitting his stride, he did the same last year and was virtually unbeatable for the second half of the season. Mistake from VR yes, still, good to see him scrape some points, going to be a very close season.Comment

Was really hoping for more from Toseland since all season he's been waiting to get to tracks that he knows, and now for the last two races they just talk about how it's more of a disadvantage knowing the track from superbikes.Comment

i think either lewis hamilton will win the race or Kimi. bmw say they have lost ground to the top.2 teams and i beleive toyota and red bull might get a good gain over this.
Anyone read in the sun, saying that hamilton doesn't want veggies thrown at him for some reason i don't know maybe it's a new trend. Come on that must be aload of bull.Comment

David Coulthard has announced he will retire from F1 at the end of the current season.

Bummer. No Scottish driver to cheer on. Still with a bit of foresight the Beeb will hire him for their F1 team.Comment

Surely that's what he'll end up doing? It's been rumored since the beeb deal was announced anyway.
Yorath will be GUTTED
