all i can say is - thank goodness that 4 week break is over!! boy i have missed the F1.... Kindof thought that Alsono would be racing as he is a GOD to the spainish :s
Anyway good luck to lil Heikki and our McLarens - they will do well - the car was just ace at Budapest - i could feel the great energy from Lewis driving at Budapest - he was loving it & how the car was feeling  _________________ I NEED AN OTHER GP - I MISS BEING AT THE TRACK TOO MUCH - SILVERSTONE - GREAT BDAY PREZZIE TO MYSELF - BUT BUDAPEST - WOOOOW FREE TRIP & LEWIS WINNING WHAT MORE COULD I ASK FOR?! LOL |

Rubens is on the clean side, but still - Heikki has KERS, which makes it almost impossible for Rubens to come out of T3 better then P3. Heikki is on the dirty side, so Lewis will probably be first after start. Kimi just might be 4th, as he has KERS, and I think that 5th will be Button, and 6th Vettel from dirty side.
How the race will turn out it's hard to predict, as Barrichello showed some great speed. But still, I think that Lewis will win, and Heikki will be probably 2nd, unless Barrichello will gain enough with the pit stops. |

I think:
1) Hamilton
2) Kovalainen
3) Barrichello
4) Button
5) Raikkonen
6) Vettel
7) Rosberg

Lewis lost 3 or 4 seconds, just as much as he was behind Rubens after pit stop. So it would be extremely close, but still, I think it would be Rubens today. |

i think lewis would've easily had a chance at winning if it wasnt for that pit error. i dont care what whitmarsh says, lewis had the pace.
good race overall though, shame heikki couldnt manage it onto the podium though, if he had managed 3rd place then that might have silenced a few critics.
i wonder what his contract with mclaren will look like at the end of the season? |

jenson lost points today but he is still ruling the wdc by a margin so that goes to show the brawn level of commitment
as bad as today was (for brawn) they still have the best position on the grid
i hope that heikki can continue to put in top 10 (and possibly podium) positions because i reckon that given the right situations he can perform equal or better than hamilton
and heikki really needs to put in these performances if he is to prove that he is worth a drive at a top team
good luck heikki, please prove yourself to us, we believe you |
I couldn't have written my thoughts better! In this case I agree with everything. |

Having spent a lot of time reading various F1 boards and comments on F1 articles, I don't think anything less than Heikki outperforming Lewis will silence the critics. And, even then, I wonder. There seems to be a great deal of people who just want someone to pick at, and Heikki is their target.
McLaren had a lousy car for the first half of the year, and when upgrades were being made, the whole of McLaren could only produce one mystical example of it, which naturally went onto Lewis' car.
I just hope Heikki has a decent ride next year, regardless of who it is with. Silly Season is starting to get to me. |
