2008 Spanish Grand Prix

Sorry for the delayed report. Been really sick for the past few days. Still am actually

Anyway, as usual a Ferrari is on pole but unusually, a Renault is in 2nd !! Crybaby Alonso seems to have stopped his whining for a while at least and surprise !! It can actually get him some good results. Of course, he is very low on fuel as confirmed by Pat Symonds. In spite of this, this is actually very good news for Renault.

After that, it's again back to the predictable. Massa in 3rd, Kubica in 4th, Hamilton in 5th followed by his McLaren teammate Kovalainen in 6th, Webber in 7th for RBR, Trulli 8th for Toyota. Toyota and RBR have been really consistent. I am expecting them to at least score a podium in the next couple of years if they keep up this rate of improvement. Heidfeld was very disappointing in the BMW and qualified only 9th ahead of Nelson Piquet Jr in 10th.

The race is going to be very interesting. It is obvious that Crybaby will move down the grid quite rapidly. Massa's race depends on how soon he can get past the Renault.

The McLarens dont have a chance at all unless all the 4 cars ahead of them run into major problems.

The scary part for McLaren team and their supporters is that BMW seem to be consistently faster than them ! It's not just a flash in the pan.

One of the major surprises was Force India in 19th and 20th positions. They performed pretty well in Free practice and in testing and to see them above only Super Aguri is not encouraging at all.

Dude stop typing and so ja

I have this feeling that this rice might turn out to be boring.. but lets see.. Pay Symonds already agreed at Alonso i light but i dont think that its all based on fuel. They have improved although not so huge to fight Ferrari but they can do thier bit.. Even dumb Piquet got his bike in 10th place So lets hope we can see some good fighting. Crybaby on a good machine is definitely better than Hamilton..

Safety car out on the first lap !!! Oh my god!!

Massa takes third from Crybaby.

Lewis moves to 4th. There is a crash between 3 cars !! But one of them continues.

Vettel and Sutil are out. Sutil was actually spinning and Vettel was in the wrong position at the wrong time. I think Sutil was sent spinning by another Red Bull car.

The funny part is the fastest lap is right now credited to Takuma Sato !! As all of them are behind the saefty car.

And Sutil did collide with Coulthard. Hamilton actually had a very goodstart and almost cut Heikki off...

Race is on again !!!

Kimi sets fastest lap... Everyone else is settling in. Piquet Jr is off the track. He rejoins down the order. Kimi is opening a bit of a lead over Massa.

Tbhis is perfect. Ferrari 1-2 and the only people who can challenge them are stuck behind Alonso.

Piquet and Bourdais collide and Piquet retires. It is totally Bourdais' fault. That bugger ruined Piquet's race too...

Kimi sets another fastest lap and gains another half a second on Massa.

The gap is now 2.7 secs. He is running away with the race !! Massa will have to uncork something special !!
