imagine thats an odd sensation for MS, being chased by a ferrari

Alonso vs Schumacher.

Sounds exciting but then you remember that it'll probably just come down to Alonso being close enough at DRS activation and then breezing past with Schumacher completely helpless and unable to defend.

Problem with Rosberg's car ?

utajoker · 17 Apr 2011 at 08:42

MS is just doing what we expected of Webber, he's in a faster car than Ferrari should have qualified top 10 easily.

Do you mean the ones that look like stands, but are massive advertising hoardings?

Edit, JINX!!

Flibster · 17 Apr 2011 at 08:47
