I think ham needs to let kimi go in the first turn! and if Alonso is running good let him go too!!! I hope he doesn't try and go for the win.

If last week is indicative, he will race for a win. Guy is a racer.
Me thinks there will be heavy blocking on the Bonkey's part, coupled with far too agressive manuevering from the Donkey. This will bind up the second row, and BOOM!

The Bonkey will take it!

I think the dream is over. No 3xWDC for Donkey... I hope Bonkey has a career in reverse just like Villenueve.

I think Massa and Hamilton are running lower fuel than Kimi and Alonso. I think Massa's team job is to hold up Hamilton during the first stint to avoid a gap to be opened to Kimi, so that Kimi (and possibly Alonso) can get by on the the pitstop. After that, Massa will run his own race depending on where Lewis sits.

yeah, you are probably right, but i get the feeling that massa will deliberetly open the gap between himself and the rest of the field if he gets the opportunity. and that is obviously not in the favour of the team.

there also is the probability of massa being overtaken by any of the title contenders during the 1st couple of laps. it is a difficult situation for him, but he ought to understand that the team has the priority not his home win. Plus i m sure that he understands that he is their #2 driver and always will be.

Lewis has showin in the past that he can force Massa into mistakes. Lets hope he owns him.

I'll actuallyl be watching at noon Pacific time with Splinter from the board.
