Alonso has really stepped up a mark. Very impressed with ever since Piquet came second he's put his head down and proved the Renault is a winning car. Great entertainment. Kubica is now gunning for a possible 2nd place or even an outside first place. Not bad in an under developed BMW.
Massa has been gifted another point after ramming Bourdais, the debate was whether Massa should has been penalised (I think not), but...
In a shock decision Sebastien Bourdais, not Felipe Massa, has been slapped with a 25-second penalty by the Japanese stewards for Sunday's incident.
The steward continue to impress with new ways of helping Ferrari. The first corner incident with Hamilton was probably worth a stop go , however we now in the situation of penalising anything that could be considered racing. Massa's takeout of Hamilton would probably have been considered a racing incident until they decided that overtaking had to be completely on the racing line.
The F1 farce continues, although I'm pretty sure that the reasoning behind it is to ensure the championship goes down to the last minute and is exciting.
Exciting it is, but a sport no.. its a circus.
