A weekend at OTTODROM!!!

A race to forget for Ferrari. Especially MS.. Never mind... he has seen worst. I am disappointed but as other ardent Ferrari fans, I have already started looking out for the V8 and 2006.

First the Track!!! One of the 3 anti-clockwise circuits.. with steep gradients.With non-landscaped sides.. the track was very dirty.. and the gradients made the car to swing out of control in turn 12 with a huge amount of Tail Wind. The only car not affected by this was the Mclaren. When you lose the greatest Car Designers to a team like Mclaren, this is what happens. Ferrari... MS's... had a huge tail spin in the qualifying. But he was up into 11 from 19 in 2 laps... if it hadnt been for Webber's nasty overtaking move... he would've finished in points for sure.

The track is a challenging one... and its going to be tough even next year for most of the teams.Hope the officials bring it up to the world standards by then.

Kimi rocked the race right from the turn 2 of the starting lap. He was caught napping at the start by Fisi and a raging Alonso. But he on to his nerves and shooed off both the renaults. Tyaga... did I hear about Team Orders??? It went on live in AIR when they issued the team orders.They called it HELPING BY FISI for Alonso even when he was in a comfortable lead in the championship. Atleast Ferrari commented straight about the Team Orders and the Contract for No 2 driver always comes with it. Poor Fisi!!!

I think its allover for Narain. Might be out in 2006 or will have to settle for a test driver position. All the best.

I just hope Ferrari will bounce back at home in a couple of weeks. Nothing much to say about Ottodrom. See ya all after Monza!!!!

Hey KD,

Yeah... but i expect them to be stronger in Monza in a week's time... where they test almost all the time. Hope for the best.

Felippe Massa is replacing Rubeno. He is not new to the Red camp, for he was a test driver till Sauber switched to Ferrari power couple of seasons back.

There are also rumours that MS might switch to Mclaren. Man... i really dont want to see his red helmet in that silver car!!!

And i hope Ferrari can buy their former Designer Nicholas back from Mclaren... else 2006 is also gonna be a 2005-revisit!!!

History is repeating as it was in the past!!1

Me starting tomo to cbe. Will be in college for the function on sunday!!! Gonna come to the college after 1.5 years... Man.. i already feel so good!!!

Hey, Which college did you study in? And I think you would be the only person I know who says it's gonna be good to be back in colllge. Here we are all waiting to burst out of the college cos- and I mean it.

BTW, I heard that Kimi might switch to Ferrari(CNN).

There is no way Schumi is going to go anywhere he has almost constructed the entire team around him. Till he came to Ferrai, it wasn't doing well for quite some time and the man's loyalty won't let him switch to any other team... I guess he is like Lance.
