Grand Prix 4 Looking back at the coverage for Zand it was very good, and a good result 7th would be apart from the fact there was no coverage for me going from 7th on the grid or so to last in the first corner on the first lap.
Anywho, from the back it was a good performance, but Alpha as am i should still feel we should have had better luck and should have got onto the podium at least. Renselar got taken

Grand Prix 4 Its between three for the title now. Vettels engines hurt him too much with the lack of FP and also meaning he maybe cant push as hard as possible. I would still expect him to take a penalty at one race before the end of the season.
Webbers inconsistency performance wise looks like it will be his downfall. If he can pick it back up though i think he would be Buttons top contender.

Hehe so it was, didnt think i was usually in friday practice so i got confused.
I will claim i did not race, and that i have a twin brother who is inept as a driver and took my place in that practice session without me knowing.

Grand Prix 4 Firstly i wish it had continued to rain as i may have had a stronger result, but 12th is 12th and its a finish i guess 0.o
Not sure i understand the stewards decision even though it wasn't me affected by an extra pitstop. Next time maybe the race can be rerun instead of being posted up? Am unsure, anyway stewrds continue to solid work

Grand Prix 4 Firstly let me congratulate Rubens, a solid and deserved victory. Lets hope theres more from him and Brawn to come.
Now, onto more hilarious but serious matters. Why are Ferrari covering for Badoer? If he is this slow in Spa he should be out of that race seat so fast he doesnt have time to ask why. The exscuses coming from Ferrari are there not only to help Badoer feel better, but also to co

Grand Prix 4 Very happy with Alpha now in joint 4th in the constructors championship, and also happy to have 3-0 in qualifying over my teamate.
While my one lap times continue to be good in the car compared to my teamate am disapointed with my results so far. Made up some good positions in the first race but the 2nd and 3rd round have been largely disapointing, and am hoping for some better results in the

F1 Few points of interest for me. Sad too see what is effectively Sauber, a team who i respect greatly for what they have done, and a man (peter Sauber) who has done nothing but help motorsport and driver development disapear.
Heidfeld - Retiring at the end of the season then, unless he gets offered a driver similar to Fisichellas at Force India and joins one of the new teams.

F1 This news brings a bit more spice into this season. MS won't be straight back into the car fastest i dont expect that at all, but give him a race, or maybe even a few practice sessions at Valencia and could we see Kimi getting shown how to race?? =P
A good move by Ferrari, and with the car seemingly more competitive we may see MS getting a podium in 2009, who predicted that one!

F1 Its a failing of the Renault team for letting Alonso out of the pits in the first place. The wheel cover didn't lock in place like it should, and it is unsafe to release a car when the team can clearly see the tyre isn't safely secured.
The penalty is harsh and will be overturned, but i think Renault will still get a serious penalty, and should (as i think Vettel should have earlier

F1 First Henry Surtees' fatal accident and now this scare for Massa. Its a concern that twice in a week we have two incidents including drivers being stuck on the helmet by debris.
All the best Massa, not always been his biggest fan but noone likes to see this in racing. Hopefully he makes a full recovery.

F1 After such a poor qualifying am glad that i managed to soring a suprise and climb 10 places upto 9th place at Melbourne! The Alpha car was working well in the race (where its most important people!), and thats obvious with both cars making it into the points.
Bring on the next race! =]

Lorenzo and Stoner have big crashes at Laguna Seca in qualifying.
Lorenzo got pole, but i think Rossi might be loving this with two of his title contenders possibly being injured from their crashes.
