According to Marc Gene... Massa noticed he could took advantage of the tow of someone in front of him... and he did, beating Alonso, Alonso who had this strategy with the team to benefit from Massa tow last flying lap was left alone in the dust, after all is said and done he just missed his towed-team mate by 0.010 and managed to beat a Mercedes... ah well, Alonso is really infuriated lol.

edit: Alonso so salty, first thing he said was "100 qualifications, I beat Massa 88-12" hahah is he really counting those ? and he said the "stupid" thing was about RIC messing the Ferrari couple and blaming the team for not noticing before letting them out that RIC was going to get in the middle, and yes Massa was towed, too bad he will be eaten alive by ALO tomorrow in 2 laps.

 

[ramparter]

Also Alonso should focus on his driving, not where Massa is. If Massa went ahead then you could follow him too.

 

[Wax Free Vanilla]

what happened to Hamilton?

He drove like an idiot.

 

[Addnan]

Alonso will probably be up to 2nd and finish there by the end of the first lap. Hulk going back, Webber going back obviously and Massa will move.

Vet, Alo, Web.

 

[Shaneus]

He drove like an idiot.

Why? Has he been dumped by his dog or something now?

 

[olore]

The fastest Ferrari is a Sauber

 

[Kassu]

Hulk to Ferrari please. He really deserves better team than Sauber..

 

[DrM]

No wonder Lewis said that, his late Parabolica gravel excursion was costly - dirty tyres and lost time due additional lap and quick floor inspection in pit lane. So he ended in traffic and he met Sutil.

 

[theignoramus]

what happened to Hamilton?

Adrian Sutil

 

[Ce-Lin]

Also Alonso should focus on his driving, not where Massa is. If Massa went ahead then you could follow him too.

the team messed and let the Ferrari duo out wrong, with RIC racing between them, so Massa of course didn't slow down to wait for Fernando to overtake RIC and when ALO finally did Massa was too "far" to benefit from a tow, Ferrari can't even look at the cars' position on track.

 

[DrM]

Imagine that Massa and Alonso collide in the first chicane tomorrow.

 

[Psychotext]

Massa's gearbox sounded a little off...

Adrian Sutil

In fairness, Sutil isn't responsible for his excursion into the gravel. Wouldn't be surprised if 1 problem out of 100 is affecting him...

 

[olore]

Imagine that Massa and Alonso collide in the first chicane tomorrow.

Imagine if Vettel and Webber... Nah, too far out.

 

[Ce-Lin]

Imagine that Massa and Alonso collide in the first chicane tomorrow.

could totally happen, same as Webber and Vettel, YOLO right ?

and LdM saying if Alonso isn't ahead of Vettel tomorrow they will switch focus to 2014

 

[John_B]

Why? Has he been dumped by his dog or something now?

This thread is pretty enjoyable to read at most times. Could we please keep it that way?

The fastest Ferrari is a Sauber

Just like last year
I think Monza just fits the Sauber which is noticably narrower than the other cars.
Good way for Nico to put his name out there.
For Sauber's sake I hope he stays but I can't blame him if he goes somewhere else...

 

[massivekettle]

Disappointed for LH; reckon he had a top 3 in the bag.

Also, his streak of 60-ish consecutive Q3 ends.

Sutill will definitely get a 5-place grid penalty, though. Blatant impeding.

 

[Ce-Lin]

LdM admitting Ferrari talks with Kimi, most probably next week Ferrari will confirm Kimi as a 2014 Ferrari driver... the incredible stuff is when asked about ALO he said "we'll see.." lol wth ??

Yeah, he's gone to Q3 since Malaysia 2010, too bad the run ended today.

 

[mclem]

Heh. Nice one, Lee.

 

[Addnan]

Massa looks well happy.

 

[Psychotext]

Sounds like lolonso is being a drama queen again.

 

[Deadman]

Not even stopping to have a whine to the press, he must be really mad

 

[NHale]

If Sauber 2014 driver lineup is Gutierrez and Sirotkin as expected they might as well close the team.

It's a shame that teams that have the heart in the right place like Williams and Sauber have to choose drivers based on money they bring.

 

[Zeppu]

I know Alonso is a fantastic driver but I find him incredibly unlikeable. The team basically bets their everything on him every single time and he keeps acting like a drama queen and like Ferrari isn't doing their utmost for him.

 

[Addnan]

Kimi + Massa partnership again. Woo, let's do it. Maybe Kimi and Hulk!

 

[Psychotext]

Funny thing is that even at his worst lately he's no-where near as much of an unlikeable arsehole as he used to be.

 

[Shaneus]

Nice response from Webber: "If I needed the tissues then I'd know I made the wrong decision".

 

[theignoramus]

really hoping it rains tomorrow

 

[Omiee]

Totally acting like a drama queen. When ever it does not go his way its the teams fault and vettels luck or what ever.

Bullshit

 

[olore]

His in-car tirade against Petrov back in 2010 told me everything I needed to know about his character. Still, I admire his skill behind the wheel.

If the smug finger wins tomorrow, I predict a happy and applauding audience

 

[Deadman]

That mclaren video bbc are showing tomorrow looks like fun

 

[Wax Free Vanilla]

A cheat, blackmailer and a stroppy cunt, what's not to like?


Looks like a nice McLaren feature tomorrow on BBC, Mika and DC driving with Button as the engineer.

 

[Psychotext]

The boos will be legendary. Vettel should blow them a kiss.

 

[Zeppu]

The boos will be legendary. Vettel should blow them a kiss.

I'm sure it'll be because the Occupy movement will be hanging banners for Santander or something.

 

[PdotMichael]

Did Alonso say "we are stupid" or "you're stupid"?

Alesi translatedit as "you", which would be a no-go imo.

edit: was a different message. Classy Alonso!

 

[Zeppu]

What sites do you guys go to for the post quali afterglow news?

 

[Addnan]

PR has taken over Alonso's twitter account right.

 

[Zeknurn]

Haha. Worth quoting.

Did Alonso say "we are stupid" or "you're stupid"?

Alesi translatedit as "you", which would be a no-go imo.

@F1PitRadio: Alonso, spoken in Italian, “So you have to let him go, really *moment of pause* You are stupid! Mamma mia guys!”

I want to see Räikkönen and Hülkenberg at Ferrari next year. New engines, new drivers. Go for it Ferrari.

 

[TCRS]

No way, I need to see Alonso winning a title with Ferrari, I am too emotionally invested in this!!

 

[Omiee]

I wish vettel would start using a twitter account and post pics and stuff.

Dislike alonso but he def gives his fans a insight in some of his days

 

[ramparter]

Alonso clearly doesn't get it. It's his ego that causes all of this. Even Schumi that was a jerk behind the wheel knew that he needed the best relationship with his team to succeed.

Who knows, maybe Kimi has already signed and Fernando is a goner. I still hope they replace Massa too. Regardless of what everyone thinks of him, it's now a time another driver gets the opportunity to drive for Ferrari. And I really like Hulk. Actually I respect him so much that I think he deserves a better team than the current Ferrari.

 

[DrM]

could totally happen, same as Webber and Vettel, YOLO right ?

and LdM saying if Alonso isn't ahead of Vettel tomorrow they will switch focus to 2014

This cannot happen, because Webber goes backwards everytime he do a standing start lol

I really wonder, how Ferrari and their engine will cope in 2014

 

[Addnan]

@alo_oficial
A good qualy finally after the last saturdays so so... Tomorrow we must try to be close to redbull in first part of the race! #forzaferrari
I'm so confused.


and is Gutierrez the shittest driver on the field or is Hulk just getting a piece of shit car on the 2nd row. The guys didn't make it out of Q1 and his teammate stick it in 3rd.

 

[paskowitz]

A Kimi & Hulk combo would be great at Ferrari.

 

[Seanspeed]

A Kimi & Hulk combo would be great at Ferrari.

Would far prefer Alonso+Kimi or Alonso+Hulk.

Speaking as a Ferrari fan at least.

 

[Diablo Rosso]

Where the hell would Fernando go if he left Ferrari? I learned a lot about the type of person Alonso is when he was at McLaren.

 

[Road]

Wish I had recorded in HD.

 

[Addnan]

mmm

 

[Shaneus]

mmm

The girl to Kimi's right has a fairly long left arm, it seems.
