Frustrating race to watch that, good to see Alonso at the front again though (Would have preferred Hamilton of course).

The Bourdais penalty just reinforces the corruption in the FIA atm, absolutely ridiculous decision and of course purely to benefit Ferrari. It's diabolical.

Thanks for posting spoilers in the wrong forum for those of us who were trying to avoid all the news until the race re-run at 3pm

Apart from that, annoying race really. Hamilton really needs to chill out and keep his head a bit more.

Still, at least it isn't over and Massa didn't win.

5t.

Which cretin marked my post down? If you think Bourdais should of received the penalty why don't post why? I'd love to know, rather than hiding behind your kb u sad tit

I must admit, I thought Massa was in the wrong for forcing Bourdais off the track when he was exiting the pits. If anyone should have got a penalty, it should have been him.

Bioforger: Unfortunately, there are some Ferrari fans on the site, who agree with biased stewards.

I don't really support any team in particular, but do want the sport to be fair. (I actually think Lewis is bit too cocky for my liking.)

the f1 sport is nonsense. massa drives into the side of hamilton putting him as good as out of the race and only gets a 10 second drive through. yet bordais gets 25 secs penalty for doing noting wrong.

dj219957 - I totally agree, perhaps they should rename the FIA to Ferrari - In -Action.

The 25 second penalty is the post race equivalent of a drive through. The stewards get 20 mins to make a decision once the incident is noted as "being investigated" Because the 20 minutes would have run past the end of the race, it was investigated afterwards - hence the time penalty as opposed to a drive through.

I must be the only one on here that want's Massa to win the Championship.

Always liked Massa. Yes in the early days he was a bit all or nothing, which mostly ended up n the wall or the gravel trap, but I had him down to win it last year, and ifit were not for reliability problems he could have been there at the end instead of Kimmi.

I've wanted Massa to win the Championship from race 1 this year. I like the Bloke, and like his driving style.

Just can't get behind hamilton. Don't know why?

I am a Button fan though. Obviously he doesn't have a car to do anything with.

Honda's biggest mistake? Sacking Dave Richards. The guy who got them getting consistant poduims.

I wouldn't mind if Massa won either, as long as it's a fair and square fight during the season. Obviously that is not the situation in this corrupt championship.

I doubt Massa would want to win like this. If he does it will always be seen as him and the stewards never on his own (undoubted) talent.

I would love it if Kubica won the championship. He's been there, keeping steady, getting results in quietly and is better, IMO, than the rest of the grid with great fending off of Raikonnen. Maybe with exception of Alonso though, who is really showing his class recently. If McLaren had Alsonso or Kubica this season I reckon they would have wrapped it up by now.

Couple more wins for the Pole while Hamilton goes into kid mode tangling with the Ferrari's would be fun to watch

I'm with you all the way, Hamilton is sooooooooooooooooooooooo boring. He's just a media Robot for Maclaren. zzzZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZz

At least when you get a bit of barging it adds some spice to the race

I don't think Massa should have been penalised for the crash with LH. We all know he would have got told off for cutting the chicane. Lewis had plenty of room but chose not to use it. Had he gone further to the right then he still would have taken Massa. I don't blame Massa one bit for trying to get straight back on the track.
And I am a LH fan and really want him to win the championship like he should have done last year!

Race prediction for the chinese grand prix:- hamilton 1st, massa 2nd, but hamilton receives a penalty for something or other to put him back to 4th, putting them level for brazil where massa wins and lewis comes 2nd,

Whatever happens tomorrow, can whoever gets up at stupid O'clock to watch it not post a thread on here with a title like 'Lewis wins' or 'Hamilton crashes', as it is really annoying if you are panning to watch it later on
Maybe just put 'Chinese GP spoiler thread'

How can you say Hamilton is boring to watch
His driving style has the car sliding around and he can overtake, he is probably one of the most aggressive drivers on the track (some complain about this) so if anything he is more spectacular to watch.
Its the press which is making him look/sound like a robot if he says or does the wrong thing they jump on him.
Some of Massas comments don’t do him any favours why cant he ever admit to making a mistake or simply just say today I wasn't quick enough I used to like Massa but recently his attitude rather than his driving is putting me off.
