My take is that Alonzo is suffering from a severely bruised ego. For two years he has been a world camp and was lavished with praise and attention. Suddenly everyone is looking at Lewis. That's a shock to the system.

Massa is doing much better this year. Is it because he is being coached by Schumacher? It is interesting that Kimi had the same opportunity but refused.

Assuming you have the right car, I think that to win yoou need to be a total professional. The era of natural talent is over. You need both the talent and a lot of disciplined hqard work to be a winner. Schumi showed it, Hamilton is showing it and the rest ,,, well they better get with the program or be left behind.

Good points. We know McLaren has the best car on the grid right now. Ferrari had the fastest car to start the year, but the McLaren's have the total package right now (speed, reliability, versatility regardless of the track).

What will Hamilton look like when he doesn't have the best car on the grid? We may not find out for a long time.

What we do know is that Alonso has the best car also, but is more concerned with his teammate than his own performance. Not typical of a 2 time WC.

Concur with Joe's post Montreal race statement. He should submit his CV for consideration.

LH was amazing today, but why not realize what SV accomplished today in the media??

19 yr/old going to Q3 on his first visit? 2nd fastest in practice? Crap Ralphie boy should be so lucky!

Hell I was looking for a place to buy beer when I was 19

Tomorrow is going to be great if Fred doesn’t take LH out on the first lap

I am looking forward to reading this week that FA thinks that the team gave LH better brakes, thus allowing him to outbrake him at the end of the straight entering T1, thus relegating him to a 2nd place finish.
