Fernando Alonso has won his first ever GP for Ferrari in front of their home fans, the tifosi. After starting from pole, he chased Button to retake first place after the pitstops. Button came home second with the second Ferrari finished in third place.
That's good to hear.rfs wrote:I'm a Hamilton fan, and although I am seething over his retirement the battle between Alonso, Button and their pitcrews was fascinating. And its probably better for Hamilton that Alonso won than Button.mx_tifosi wrote:Simple. Hamilton is out.andrew wrote:I cannot understand how any true F1 fan could have found it boring?!

The damage to Buttons car is on BBC 1 right now. Looks like the lower quarter to the left rear wing end plate. Couldn't make out the diffuser but the rear wing was very clear. Can any engineers confirm how much of a difference this would have made?
Not like tanks, it's just that the rear end is much tougher than the front. If a fragile front end hits a rear end it's predictable that the rear will hold together much better. Could be said for every car in similar situations IMO.Goran2812 wrote:good thing ferrari's are built like tanks...

Mx as a moderator, dont you think you lean to heavily to one side or the other at times? I think Komnosium(komninosm *edited twice) made a valid point.
supoused to be a funny remark...A fifth and a ninth must be like a 1-2 for a die hard Mercedes fan these days, eh JET? But not to worry my man,JohnsonsEvilTwin wrote:Fairweather Ferrari fan?andrew wrote:JET - after this year, I am not too keen on Ferrari anymore. More of a Massa.

True. Wasn't Alonso kinda lucky he damaged Button's rear and his front was undamaged?mx_tifosi wrote:Not like tanks, it's just that the rear end is much tougher than the front.
