    I watched it and it was superb. I don't think that Jenson has a chance really to win the championship as the Red Bulls are just too strong under normal conditions. However it was great to see the whiney Spanish lady-boy beached on a curb (lost all respect for him after his season at McLaren when he couldn't stand playing second fiddle to a better driver).

    Allan McNish's crash at Le Mans was pretty horrific and it was amazing he walked away from that... just shows how far safety has come in motor racing thanks to the campaigning by F1 drivers for so many years to improve it.

    If any of you haven't see the crash here it is:



    Audi also had another nighttime crash, so although they won Le Mens they also had some very bad crashes to deal with. It was great to see Peugeot doing well too, and a shame they couldn't win it again in their 908 as I love that car.

    So true about Alonso, he has to be the most important person, not just in a team, but for everything. He needs his ego popped from time to time.

    Regarding winning the championship, I don't think it is quite as black and white as that and it is definitely not over yet. 60 points is only 2 wins and a 5th place finish buffer, and we all know how quickly such points leads can be eroded away. Look at 2007, who would have guessed Kimi would have won that championship?

    As for Red Bull. They have been really strong to date this year, but from Silverstone the FIA have banned the hot-blown deffuser system, and their car has the most advanced version of this, which is why their car has been so strong. They are basically using it as increase downforce and cornering speed. This is being viewed as a moveable device for aerodynamics and so has now been banned. It is believed this system is the reason for their 0.5 - 1 second advantage over the rest of the teams in previous races, so it will be very interesting to see how banning this system affects their car and their performance.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    Oh yes, and i am a big Ferrari Fan, but i hate Alonso. So strange... every race i wish that one pilot wins, and the other gets off road....
