In other news it's shaping up to be a crazy, crazy race to the finish. Top 5 drivers are within 20 points, there's a terrific 3-way battle for 6th place, and RB's constructors' lead is just 8 points.
It's always fun watching the middle of the pack to see which drivers are outdriving their car... Kubica is definitely one, Rosberg is more consistent than he is spectacular, and well, Massa... race fix aside, I don't think he gets as much out of the car as his teammate.
So who is going to win the big prizes?
- straight line speed (McLaren)?
- top aero (Red Bull)?
- whiners/crybabies (Ferrari )?
you can download the bbc, rtl, etc coverage (even an HD feed but its like 9GB)
you don't need to waste your money on usenet to watch F1. all the free practices, qualify, race, and red button forum (all BBC coverage) is released on torrents everytime.

this 2010 season has made me hate what Ferrari are doing. I don't see them stand a chance at winning the drivers championship or constructors. So i don't know why they would do something so stupid as to take away Massa's win. The guy is making a steady recovery and having the best race of the season and "the team" all of a sudden decides that Alsono should be the one to pick up the points??? wtf??!! ok... so Alsono won that race.... does he have a chance at being world champion? NO... not even close. Alsono needs to stop being a whiny little bitch and accept that fact that Massa out drove him. Big deal if he was fastest in quali. He fucked up the start and couldn't recover from it. Massa jumped 2 ppl at the start and was throwing down fastest laps through out the race. I give major props to Massa for the performance he put on. "yes it was my decision". everyone knows that was bullshit and he even showed it on the podium. And the fact that Ferrari was only fined a lousy 100,000 for giving team orders???? what kind of punishment is that??? thats like being busted for a grow op in van... its nothing .... a slap on the wrist!! the FIA needs to hand out real punishments or teams will just do it again cuz they know nothing will happen. Alonso should've had the win taken away from him ... lost his points... and be moved back 10 grid positions on the next race. $100,000 fine....pffffft.... isn't that what they pay Alonso a day? i mean ... seriously....
I agree, the fine is pretty much nothing. moving them back the grid should be the right call.

Team orders? Big deal. Not saying it's right, but every team does it.
So when Hekki let Lewis pass in 2008, it was ok?
Ferrari couldn't afford to have its drivers taking points off each other at this stage of the championship. If Massa had a more decent shot at the WDC and he was able to run away from Alonso, he would be allowed to keep the position.

Spa isn't the same without the 1200hp Ferrari & Honda V12's going flat out through Eau Rouge in the late 1980's driven by Senna, Mansell, Prost, Piquet, etc...

The 1200 horse motors of 1987-1988 were 1.5L V6 turbos...
The V12's came out in 89 and only made about 600-700 horse.

Finally got to experience f1 live this year it was great but i kind of prefer the tv for the coverage but experience wise wow my ears are still ringing i wish i could be at this weekends race
as for Schumacher he even said this is where he put the car he gave barrichelo a choice of what he wanted to do and people h8 schumi for it
But look at Senna he was far far far far far far far far far far far far more dangerous a driver and what happens? he gets praised for nastier tricks and moves (case in point that top gear episode where they gave a tribute to senna)
I guess if Schumi died racing he'll get praised too for everything people hate him for
i don't know what is wrong with Vettel lately. he's making so many stupid errors. he's very quick when he's out in front. but when it comes to passing someone, he needs to learn to have more patience. thats twice he's wrecked the race for another driver. and both times he says "i was faster than hiim". he needs more experience before he can actually fight for the championship.
