Schumacher not even in the top 3! As that race finished I was like "I wonder what Folken thinks of this..."

ignorant comment there simeon

Schumacher started last and finished 5th and at Monaco this is a mean feat. He would've made the podium if this was a track where passing was possible. I am by no means a fan of the media this weekend. Utterly disgusted by them. I'll be keen on hearing what these assholes have to say now that they saw what Michael was capable of had he started from the front of the pack.

[Tiste Simeon]

Well now I found my answer.
I will admit I missed the beginning of the race as I was at church, so sorry for my ignorance.

[Tiste Simeon]

It worked this time at any rate.

I didn't watch it...nope
but u see my point...5th...from last...at MONACO...yes...yes indeed this genius had to cheat to get on pole so he could win by some obsene margin instead. Yes...yes in****ingdeed...

Now.. let's see... Nico Rosberg? Mark Webber? Kimi Raikkonen? Jarno Trulli? Christian Klien? That's 5 drivers that retired while in front of sumi--- And that would've pushed him right where he belonged- 10th place!
I know he did a great job, but c'mon, with so much retirments, it's a wonder Albers didn't get into points...

And my hero of the day is Fisico... He showed the pure briliance of his driving skills. That was just impressing... Way to go, Fisico!

As for Alonso, I have nothing more to say... He's just born with that wheel, isn't he?:cool:

[Folken]

Fisi is ur hero? wow...Id forgive you for calling Alonso ur hero, atleast hes good. But Fisi? really...did not Michael finish AHEAD of Fisi even though he started some 13 places BEHIND him? As to your point on the attiriation rate...um...well I don't really know what to say. If you're going to use that as an excuse lol. I mean Alonso would've clearly finished 2nd or even 3rd had both Kimi and Mark survived. Kimi had the raw pace and Mark had the strategy as he had more fuel on board than both of them.

But hey...Michael passed Button (yet again when the likes of Kimi and Alonso would clearly have kept him behind)...does this mean ppl will stop hailing him as some kind of awesome driver?

[Folken]

And as BAD pointed out...*ahem*!

[kettle]

my what a hot topic this has become!!

I still don't think Schumacher did it on purpose, he had nothing to gain from it really as his race pace has shown, he had the fastest lap round monaco in the race, he came from the back of the grid to finish 5th, Massa started in front of him and only came 9th, even if Alonso had taken pole on that last qualifying lap, Schumacher would have won the race, I think it was one of his stupid rookie like mistakes, he makes at least one every year, it seems even the worlds best sometimes have their off moments...

as to Fisi being the hero of the day...pfft...were you watching the same race as me? he has the same car and the same opertunities as Alonso, but seems to be going backwards in every race these days, at least he got penalised for holding up DC in qualifying, but he should have had a drive through penalty for that overtaking manouver as BAD said, tbh I can't be doing with all Fisi's whinging these days

as to the race, the luck was all Alonso's way, I could have cried for poor Kimi when his engine let go, then there was Webber, who after all his good worked deserved being up on the podium, McLaren and Williams have to get their act together and start being reliable and challenging for race wins and podiums...but you have to hand it to old square head, he did good, or should I say a super job and it was a well deserved podium for him, he has to be the driver of the race for me too...

as to the Button fan club...alas I don't think we've heard the last of them...

[Folken]

maybe I should go point that picture out to grandprix.com...they have the habit of pointing out, quite angrly might I add, everytime Michael gets away with things...perhaps I should send them this

[Folken]

Kimi to Ferrari next year. I sure hope it happens, I feel way to sorry for him. I also hope that Mclaren continue to be unreliable so Alonso can crash and burn and Kimi or Schumacher(if he stays) prevail!!:D:D:D

[Called-by-the-Voices]

Oh you're all so all-knowing f1 fans, and schumi fans... Face it, Alonso today is a better river, the results show it!
Yeah, you can blame luck, but can you REALLY have 64 out of 70 points in 7 races all thanx to LUCK ??

C'mon... You know you're talking silly right now..

As for Fisico, his cutting of the chicane wasn't a major cut, nor did it gain him an advantage over DC, as he was much faster and ahead of him by the time.. And, in the NEXT lap, he overtook Villeneuve on the same place!SC did the job for Schumi so that he can beat Fisico...

As for him being in the same car as Alonso, I don't think so. It's clear that ALonso pushes his Renault over the limits as he is an extraordinary driver.. Fisico's results are a more objective state of this year's Renault. Fisico is raw talent, an unused diamond I would say, and he lacks discipline. But that's why I like him.
As for Kimi and Webber challengng Alonso's win... Not too sure about that, as Webber was clearly low on fuel, or he wouldn't have kept that pace... And Kimi finished behind Alonso after the 2nd pit stop... So what could he do? Overtake Alonso in MC? I don't think so...
Alonso himself addmited that he was saving tyres in the second tint, so that he can move away after the second pit stop...
Due to Kimi and Webber's retirements he dind't have to... So...

Congratulations, Mr. Champ.

Fisichella might be fast, but he’s not a great driver, he’s been in F1 for ten years now and I know he hasn’t been in the best cars during his career, ( 8 races with Minardi, 1 year with Jordan, 4 years with Benneton, 2 more years with Jordan, a year with Sauber, then last year and this with Renault) but he has never fulfilled the promise he showed in the early years, somehow he has let things slide, he seems to go to sleep in the middle of races when he should be putting in the fast laps, then suddenly wakes up when it’s too late and does his fastest laps at the end of the race, this inconsistency is the difference between him and championship winning driver. Since he’s been at Renault he’s had the same spec car and the same opportunities as Alonso, but he hasn’t really achieved anything, pushing the car to its limits is what makes a race winner!! There is no doubting Alonso’s talent, but so far he has been winning in the most reliable car, McLaren has reliability issues, Ferrari have the tyre problems (especially last year) so Alonso has been having a easy time of it, what will be the test for him is when he goes to McLaren next year, is he going to be able to cope if McLaren have another unreliable car? Can he do what Schumacher did when he left Benneton for Ferrari and win in a car the despite it’s faults. Kimi is a championship winning driver, but can’t win races because of the reliability of the McLaren, which of course let him down again at Monaco where he had the faster car….luck it seems does have a part to play in the race...

As for Fisi’s overtaking manoeuvre on DC, if it had been Schumacher who cut the chicane you can bet he would have been penalised!!

China 2005 - Fisi in the pits for a drive through penalty

Team over radio: "Fisi u've been penalised come in for a drive through"
Fisi: *cries like a baby*NOOOOO

Fisi in pits
Team over radio: "Fisi just relax, relax we still get what we want today with 3rd. relax fisi, relax, just relax. dont worry about it. do your job just relax"

A few times this years
Team over radio: "Fisi u just can't be 2-4seconds a lap slower than Alonso, it can't be!"

*ahem* Yes I'm sure fisi is some sort of genius;)

Michael, Kimi, Alonso would NEVER need stuff like that

[Called-by-the-Voices]

You'll see... You'll see..

He did win Malayzia this year, didn't he? That's worth something... Granted, he's the 3rd driver in the championship, tied with Kimi :hand:

But is he good as Alonso and Kimi? :Erm: Noooo... I don't think so.
But still way better then shoe-maker :eek:
