6 the same as usual

The SpeedTV guys blamed Raikkonen for it, saying he checked everyone up. While I like Ferrari/Kimi, I was definitely rooting for Fisi, I mean who knows when he'll get another chance like that.

Yet everyone's whining here.

Massa managed to score 22 points in the supposedly rubbish car, so I don't know what the problem was for Raikkonen.

Kimi lost garunteed points due to Ferrari inepititude in Sepang. Don't know what happened in China with his engine but has been solid since then.

Scored the first points for the team in Bahrain. Ferrari dropped the ball Q1 in Spain. Podium in Monaco. Turkey was his own fault messing up his start and he admitted it.
However since Silverstone he has been great. Strategy conspired against him in Silverstone and favoured Massa who got outqualified. Would have finished 3rd or 4th in Nurburgring if his car didn't fail and has finished on the podium for three straight races. Including a victory.

If the Force India was so great he has also managed victory in a car that wasn't the best around the circuit. The car has been no better than 3rd best for any of the last three weekends either.
People complain about KERS but the KERS system is avaliable to all teams. The fact that only Mclaren and Ferrari now use it isn't their fault. They suffered with shite cars initially but have steadily improved throughout the season to get to the point where KERS is an advantage.

If Raikkonen's drive was ALL the car then so was Fisichella's. Oh well its cool to bash Kimi huh. TBK never changes.

if if if

Massa also lost at least 5 points in China when his car packed up under the SC. Spain was entirely 100% Raikkonen's fault, and the man himself admitted as such in the interview afterwards.

Silverstone was unlucky for Raikkonen relative to Massa, but he should have qualified better, or, if he knew the car wasn't fast enough to qualify any better, he or Ferrari should've tanked it up. He qualified 9th and was only the second car to pit.

Nurby was pure bad luck and he did get short-changed out of 5 points. And from there on he's been a better driver to an extent. But we don't know to what extent as he hasn't had a yardstick.

I´m glad slow ass Button finally got DNF. And it wasn´t fully Grosjeans fault.

With that speed Button doesn´t deserve to become world champion. Vettel is the man atm.

1. boring boring boring, I keep saying this but why are FOM not using all their gimmicks they introduced over the years? Even Brundle mentioned there was no more fuel calculation graphics after a pitstop, I don't think they've used that graphic all year.

8. best race of the season, we actually saw a decent amount of overtaking. And there was a fight for the race win untill the end.
