Alonso and Ferrari made a big rookie mistake with their pit strategy!


Most of you know what I actually believe that happened in Abu Dhabi. In any case, it was a Ferrari “mistake” not an Alonso’s one.

Ferrari DOESNT drive itself :hehe::hehe::hehe: it is in the drivers hands to capitalize the best result! everything else is an EXCUSE!

"Now that the rules are a bit clearer i can state that only the British think that Lewis was not favored which just shows how deep their ignorance is."

So your parents never had a favorite child????????????? Being favorite and collecting points by TEAM ORDERS is not the same thing!
I have a favorite movie,but I dont watch it 24/7 :hehe::hehe::hehe:

When Lewis tangled with Web,people called him inexperienced,rookie,etc etc.(at least he tried) when he plays it safe,maximizes the points,he doesnt have it!

I just didnt see enough from FA given what was on the line.If he ended on the wall along with Petrov (or not) I'd say (he tried)

I never said anything about team orders and am not claiming that there were team orders at Mclaren in 2007. Just saying that Lewis would have had more of a comfortable time and been more motivated to win at Mclaren knowing that everyone was behind him 100%.

Its the same as this year with Vettel and Webber, Vettel had the team behind him but Webber didnt.

PS. My parents hated me and my sister equally.

You really are blinded, the Renault was faster in a straight line, Petrov "drove well and didn't make any mistakes", it wasn't reasonable to expect even a two time WDC to pass in those circumstances.

Vaptin's correct. With the speed of the Renault, Nando needed Petrov to make a mistake, or, for the Renault's tyres (which were older) to go off enough to let Nando get past. Nando would have needed the Merc of Nico to have it's tyres go off as well (or Nico to make a mistake). To expect an F1 driver to put his life and another driver's at risk by crashing into wall trying to pass at 300Klms is ... well, I'll try and be kind - rather a silly thought.

Also, though Ferrari has a stronger engine, the Renaults were running the latest and most efficient editions of F-Ducts while Ferrari was still using their original F-Duct.

The point of Alonso not passing Petrov or at least trying some desperate move to pass him is that it would have done him no good... he needed to also pass Kubica and Rosberg and there simply was no time or tires left for that. His race was lost when he/Ferrari decided to follow Webber instead of Vettel.

I agree with you. I believe that he must follow Button and try to overtake him at the pit stop or just copying Vettel, still easier.

Alonso is s***, and didnt deserve the title anyway so its a justice Vettel won. Alonso can wank off all he likes but he will end up a nothingman at Ferrari.

Daym bud thats alittle harsh, here's a cold one mate :wink:
