Sorry... I'm a newb here, but I'm just glad to find a forum with some reasonable posts.
Anyway, here's my two cents:
-Of course Irvine and Barichello were there to promote championships for Michael - not that he needed that much help - but they weren't the first guys in that position.
-The pass on HK was obvious. Don't get offended, it just was. This is F1 today, love it or hate it.
-As a die-hard Ferrari fan, and it makes my skin crawl to say this, McLaren has the better car this year.
So McLaren fanboys need to get off this kick like Hamilton is the second coming and realize that he is a participant in the sport as it is today (I think he'd be even better if his daddy would get out of his spotlight a little), i.e: in '05 and '06 McLaren couldn't drive 2 laps without blowing an engine and suddenly in '07 they're as fast as Ferrari... ask Fernando, the sport has changed.
AND,
Ferrari nuts need to stop acting like we're entitled to championships just because the car is red. When you have the greatest driver in the history of the sport, you win championships... when you don't, well, you have to actually work for it.
So, after all that.... what the hell is happening with Kubica?
