I think I'll be driving through Paks (near the nuclear power station) about the time the race begins as I'll be on my way home from Ferihegy airport (terminal 2b if anyone is interested) after picking up my best friend Steve for our annual "summer" piss-up (we of course also have the winter piss-up over Xmas and New Year) and sometimes the Easter piss-up which involves lots of booze, chocolate bunnies and more booze Grin

1) A getaway car
2) Another car, possibly red, with "Polizia" written on the side, instead of the normal "Marlboro". An a blue flashing light...
3) The other Ferrari... Grin

or, in English

1) Hamilton
2) Massa
3) Kimi (who'll lose and engine in qualifying, start 22nd, and get back to 3rd.

Alonso will go off at turn 1 or 2, preferably on lap 1...

I predict a drunk and naked man resembling one Mr. Ozzy will be sighted running across the track only to be apprehended by local authorities waiting on the the other side. Grin

Having seen this morning's news I'd better change my prediction:

1) A red getaway car,
2) A McLaren with Police written on the side and a blue flashing light.

well I think Alonso might be in a little trouble. I also think that shows the mindset of the man. And people moaned about schumi's tactics. Roll Eyes

I dont think I've ever seen Ron Dennis that mad in public before. Grin

Disgraceful. Gamesmanship - yes, utter disregard for sportsmanship - YES.

At least he's finally admitted that he thinks he might be #2 on the track...

The look on Lewis' face in the press conferance when Alonso was asked about it, Priceless.

I could see an FIA penalty, he was unfairly holding up another car. He had been released by the pitcrew. I wouldn't be surprised if Fisi gets one too for basically braking hard infront of yamamoto.

When you put it like that, yes he was. Back of the grid - if he has to cheat to get pole, send him to the back. Not the pitlane, but the back...

And now Alonso is blaming Lewis for the whole incident. Apparently he was told to let Alonso through in the first lap of Q3, he didn't so this cost Fernando a lap. And apparently his way of getting that back was to hold himself in the pit lane Roll Eyes

And apparently Fernando says, That is the reason why Ron Dennis threw his headset away some 15 mins after the event. Grin

I've just got in from work and read about this, here and on itv-F1.com and am not really surprised. Alonso has the upper hand over Lewis in my opinion, he's used to the car and tyres now and has proved that by beating Lewis and making up the point difference.

But he's still rattled by Lewis.. Why?

He's far too emotional... Tongue

I honestly dont believe it. I think they are going with that to avoid the grid penalty Alonso would get for it being intentional. Roll Eyes

That report is a typical load of Ron Dennis tosh and fudge. I like Ron, in the way he strives for perfection and will defend his drivers to the end.... but that's pure BS Ron and you know it Angry

well hopefully the FIA still realise a drivers lap was impeded, regardless of who gave the order and as such the benifitting driver (Alonso) should be penalised.
Your right, it is the usual Ron Dennis BS. Just look at his comments after the FIA hearing regarding the appeal, "we were glad to be exhonerated, and believe we will be again" Funny that considering they were found guilty. Roll Eyes

That was quite an "interesting" session...I think that Fernando, if he keeps playing these underhand "tactics", could become the next Schumi...

Well, that article is all lies - Ron Dennis' reaction at the incident today says it all! He stormed over to Alonso's trainer, pulled his headset off and walked him away to talk about it, and then he "blames Hamilton". Riiiight... Roll Eyes

I'd actually say he's acting more like Senna or Prost, those two had an affinity of taking their respective team mates out. Okay they were each others team mates but still. Roll Eyes

Get down the bookies or onto your favourite internet betting site now... Alonso to win the world championship.
Somebody high up in the echelons of the FIA wants McLaren/Alonso to win....

And the odds will be more favourable now, before Alonso wins tomorrow.

scratch that, initial reports were incorrect.
Alonso dropped to 6th. Sort of justice at least.

Gets even better. Again not confirmed, but apparently Mclaren will not take any constructors points away from this race either. Fair enough if this is true, I will say I was wrong about the FIA in this case. But I want firm confirmation before that happens.

To be fair to Ron Dennis he has to present a united front for the team - he can't be seen to be taking sides, particularly in what appears to be Alonso's fragile mental state. Sadly for him the world was able to see his true feelings at the time.

Good riddance for the grid penalty - we don't want Fernado to turn into a cheating little brat who throws his teddies around.
