I'm not a Ferrari fan, but even I have to admit that 'Rubino' (who lives in
my home city of Cambridge, UK) deserved the win in Germany. A magnificent
drive from 18th to win. He was brillient in overtaking, brillient in the wet
on 'slicks' and was there for his team after Shumi had gone out on the first
lap.
I didn't mind your tears at the end of the race. A big win for a big hearted
guy!

Yeah, great race...

That dude running around on the track costing McLaren their victory, was an
x Mercedes employe pissed that he got fired. So that was his way of showing
Mercedes his gratitude :)
He even ran around on the track (further up though) at 13.59 with a banner.
Couldt make out what it said, but probably some not so nice words :)

Now why did'nt they lock up that dude after the first insident ???
Saw it on German TV after the race.

Isn't there a difference between the tears of a loser and those
of a winner? ;-)

If the dog ...
Who do you want to blame for when the safety car came out
for the second time? Btw, no wonder Mercedes had to lay off
that guy, apparently they're short on money since they got lots
of additional F1 drivers on their pay roll lately.
... Zonta, Fisico ... :-)

the damn header.

IF Fisco had used his brakes, Schumacher would have won.

Are you serious??? I was on the phone with a friend as we were
watching the race. He suggested this very possibility but we both
laughed it off as impossible :-)

I think Mclaren should sue him actually.

Well I learned a very long time ago that this will always
happen regardless of prior warnings. So it is your fault
for reading the NG before you watched the race.

Live and learn I guess.

Yes he did. After staying out in slicks (such as they are) while
everyone ran rain tires, he certainly deserved to win. I was
very interested in the fact that the Mclaren drivers said it
was totally impossible for them to drive the car in slicks
and they had to change their tires.

Yeah. Rubinho sure deserved it. And it's not a bad day to be a Finn
either. Of course, if it was Mika that cried, certain tifosi would be
all laughs for that "crying Finn" again.

If that one guy hadn't wandered onto the track, McLaren would have won
easily. But shit happens, and this time Rubinho got lucky. A streak of
luck combined with awesome driving. Well done!

Sure looked like he could have avoided the accident from the on-board,
didn't it?

Perhaps he didnt practise enough driving with GPL/GP3 - so he would know how
a real racecar performs? :)

Seriously, I doubt that he would waste his fine start position just to
hazzle Schumi. should/could/would......anyways, it shall be interesting to
see the next race. Shumacher must be nervous about the first corner by now
:)

Oh come on. If you want to pick a fight, meet you in rec.autos.sport.f1
:-)

Mika left Schmacker standing. With David's help, of course. Payback is a
*** and then some.
