Shoelicker actually managed to match and slightly get ahead of Nico in terms of fastest laps of by the end of the race, Although Nico would have gone quicker if he didnt catch vettel too soon. But it shows the old geezer has still something left in it for a battle.
Massa was outwitted by Alonso by a selling a dummy move to go make massa take the inside line knowing fully the outside line becomes the inside line after turn 1.
Shamilton had an easy chance to beat both Ferraris off the line stalling the wing right from the start. But the self proclaimed master of late braking (in its own fantasy world perhaps) just braked itself out of the track letting massa get past again
. Button needlessly went on saving his tyres for nothing realizing its to late to go aggressive as the front runners are already ahead.
The real game has not started yet. I bet there will be more of this war coming soon
yes.. i think so too
the 1st race does not mean anything
but we expected the war between teammates..
especially ferrari, mclaren and mercedes
in my opinion, the worst war will be between button and hamilton
as their car is good and we all know who will be the no 1 driver for the team..
the war in ferrari won't be easy too.. the car is fast and both their drivers r hot tempered!!
but hope this war won't have too much effect coz that will make the drivers aggressive and that won't be good for the team
Interestingly I think we'll see a few fireworks at Red Bull this season. If rumours are to be believed, then Mr Aussiegrit is retiring at the end of this year leaving the Iceman with a possible return to F1, so if he starts getting all paranoid about Luscious Liz getting more new upgrades than his Dame Edna we could be in for a real bout of fistycuffs. We need that too!!! 2007 was my least favourite year in F1 for obvious reasons, but I did love the bitter war between the drivers, if ever I need someone to fight for me baggsie I get Alonso!!!
If there are problems at Ferrari we won't know about them, just read back any of the Bahrain transcripts of Nando and Big lil' Fil and you'll hear the word "team" far too much, it's almost stepford wives creepy!!!
The whole vile love-in at McLaren is ominous, with the pit crews sharing tool space and big smiles all around. I give it until Europe and then we'll see sabotage and espionage there again, screwdrivers being tampered with and information about wheelnuts being emailed to Ferrari...........
I'm looking forward to the Nico v Schumi relationship, I hear Michael is re-taking his hypnotism lessons again so he can return to being the no.1 driver at Mercedes, you'll see young Nico staring into space and doing chicken impressions around Barcelona if not before.........
I expected to see some war between ( FA/FM) ( MW/SV) ( JB/pig)
these are the top 3 teams. Button will not going to let piggy walk off with more points, while Mark is the only Aus driver , he may wish to win at his own country, while Vettel are strong too. Massa the whining babe will try to get himself a win for sure
lets see
I don't really care about the McLaren war, I prefer Jenson over Lewis but I'm not massively keen on either, and I get the feeling Lewis will get No1 status at McLaren regardless of Jenson. Ferrari, I hope Fernando wins overall but I think it will be close, the only worry is if they take points off each other allowing someone else to get it, like 2007 where everyone was watching Fernando and Lewis then along came Kimi. Red Bull is a tough one, I like Webber and Vettel. I think Vettel is more talented but I really do like Webber. I hope he has better races than Bahrain this season, if Fernando doesn't win Australia I'd like to see Webber on the top step.
Mclarne did say they will
setup for shamilton didnt they
expected!!
especially after the great win of button in australia!!
am sure hamilton was crying all night long and saying they treated button better and the that is not fair
and now we'll see the real mclaren treatment for their drivers
Mmmm....yet still....even after a misdemeanour in the gravel trap Button is still ahead of Hammy............
NEWSFLASH!!! BUTTON IS A BETTER DRIVER THAN HAMMY!!!!
I've been saying it for years............
