Terrible weekend for him. Threw it all away really.

thats ok though cause vettle scored maximum points and button only got 1 point. im hoping for more of the same in 2 weeks in brazil. red bull cars do well when its hot and fast or when its wet out, both things brazil is known for. the only thing that is the wild card here is vettle's engine, and if they can last and the abu daubi race track.

And it's not been going well for those engines.

We shall see. This was his Belgium motor, and next race he'll be on the Monza motor, and then back to the Belgium motor for Abu Dabui. I hope that he can pull it off, or at least get ahead of Rubens. It really put a damper on things when 2 of his motors blew earlier in the season. Not only did it take 2 motors out of the equation, it took away vital points that he needed.

Well someone's a Vettel fan. :ror:

Answers:

1. Raikkonen
2. Buemi
3. Button
4. Massa
5. Alonso
6. Fisichella
7. Hamilton
8. Kovalainen
9. Heidfeld
10. Trulli
11. Bourdais
12. Barrichello
13. Vettel
14. Rosberg
15. Webber

Hell yeah, I think he's the next Schumi. If it wasn't for those 2 blown motors...

How can they get anything done in that mess?

I know right it's terrible, they haven't even got any vaseline. :lmao:

I figure if it ain't messy, they ain't doing anything.

kinda reminds me of that vw factory in dresden for the phateon i think?

I'm not entirely sure who I want to take the championship this year. I'm a reasonably big fan of both Brawn GP drivers, but I am also a big fan of Vettel, if for nothing else than because he's as close to an underdog as you can get in this title fight. running on a used engine for the remaining two races, barely within striking distance of Button, but if Button continues on like he's going now, I'd almost put money on Vettel to take it unless one of his remaining two engines decides to pop. after all, the two engines he has remaining are engines that were used on absolute motor-killers of tracks, and from what I've seen of Interlagos, you could steam-broil an engine up there if you aren't careful. haven't the slightest idea about how Abu Dabui is, though. I'm definitely going to watch final practice and qualifying and the race from there, just to see how much the new circuit throws everyone for a loop

Massa feels like old self after F1 test

By Michele Lostia and Pablo Elizalde Monday, October 12th 2009, 13:57 GMT

Felipe Massa, Ferrari F2007, FioranoFelipe Massa says he is the same driver he was before his dramatic accident at the Hungarian Grand Prix after testing a Formula 1 car again on Monday.

The Brazilian, sidelined from the sport since he fractured his skull in Hungary, returned to the wheel of a grand prix car at the Fiorano circuit, where he tested a two-year-old F2007 car fitted with GP2 tyres.

Although he didn't complete many laps, Massa said he felt as if the accident had not happened.

"When I was inside the car it was as if nothing had happened: I'm the same bastard as before," Massa was quoted as saying by the ANSA news agency.

"Everything went well, I felt very good physically, it felt like the crash from 25 July had never occurred. I haven't had any eyesight problem and today I'd be ready to do not just one, but two races in a row.

"Obviously we need to respect the doctors' limitation as a precaution, but after getting in the car, I can say I'm back to what I was before the crash."

The Brazilian insisted he is not thinking of racing again this year, and will instead start focusing on 2010.

"[We can] start preparing for next year, which won't be an easy year because this one has been hard, and work to have a good car and fight for the championship," he added.

The Ferrari driver also welcomed Fernando Alonso's arrival at the Italian squad, although he made it clear he is not expecting to be best friends with the Spaniard.

"Alonso is a good professional," Massa added. "So I don't see why there should be any problem with him. He isn't coming here to become my best friend, what's important is the professional relationship."

Massa admitted he was still furious about the result of last year's Singapore Grand Prix, where he reckons the race-fixing scandal robbed him of the title he lost by a single point.

"I'm still very angry, because what happened then didn't change just a race, but the entire championship. The winner of that race is still Alonso, Briatore has gone home, while nothing has changed regarding what they stole away from us. I'm very sorry about it, because the result of the championship could have been different."
