not a chance :/
Whether what Hammy did was right or wrong, I don't like the idea that the FIA would reconsider the race results days after it ended. Where would it end?

Practice 3:


It was extremely close between the top 4 drivers throughout all 3 practice sessions. I was expecting Ferrari to have a clear advantage in this track. The qualifying session (in 2 hrs.) and the race should be exciting!!!

Why Lewis Hamilton will win this year's world championship:
Bernie Ecclestone says Lewis Hamilton will make a better world champion than his McLaren team-mate Fernando Alonso.

F1's Chief Executive, at the scene of the Chinese Grand Prix, where his 22-year-old countryman could secure the title near the end of his rookie season, said Alonso has “done nothing” for the sport since winning back to back titles in 2005 and 2006.

Kimi Raikkonen, Ecclestone added, “barely talks to anyone."

"It is painfully obvious to me that the right guy to be world champion is Lewis," Ecclestone said. "In fact my main fear would be if he didn't win it.

"If Lewis wins the drivers' championship he will act like a real world champion. He will know exactly what is expected of him and what he has to do."

Ecclestone hails Hamilton as a ‘miracle worker’ following the dramatic retirement of seven time world champion Michael Schumacher.

"But for him I'm not sure where the sport would be heading," he said.
:bad: :bad: :bad:

so what he's saying in essence is that F1 champions will now be scripted...Take a McLaren F1 add a splash of Ferrari...ban anything that doesn't fit into the script, mix for 17 races...what do u get...the new Golden Boy :roll:

At the end of the day, F1 is still a business in his eyes.

Raikkonen may have dominated all 3 practice sessions and both Q1 and Q2 but Hamilton grabs pole position! NO!

Well. There isn't a God.

Kimi hardly talks to anyone because he knows it's better to keep his f'n mouth shut!

Wow, Mr. Nice Guy is now becoming aggressive against some journalists. He's more arrogant every day:

Q. (Heikki Kulta – Turun Sanomat) Lewis, do you hope that the storm comes and the race will be cancelled?

LH: No. Do you know what? I'm really surprised that you've asked me a question because all season you've not asked me one question. Whenever you get the microphone I know the question's going to Kimi. No, I think no, I just want to race. I'm going into tomorrow not thinking hey, this is the championship.
