Looks like Alonsette's fans whine as much as she does....

Easy Luis... obviously you are an Alonso fan, but I would wait a few more races before declaring Ferrari is back. Actually, I would caution you to wait until the end of the day before feeling confident. Ferrari may still loose this race when the stewards make a decision on team orders.

The silly thing is that it was obviously team orders today, but EVERY single team this season is guilty of team orders. Very short sighted rule in my opinion.

Oh I forgot, only Schumacher benefits from team orders, no other champion or team ever has, so it's really an insignifigant point.

Ferrari showing their true colors the same way they did before, Massa and Alonso looked exactly like Barichello and Schumi back in the day.

GO ALONSO !
Actually I was not talking about the series...but the race. I felt like I was watching a DE. I know I am not bitching about anything new here (lack of passing)...but the pass by Alonso was missing a "point-by" from Massa (after all FA was "faster" according to the team, and proper DE rules state...)

...then my experience would have been complete.

+1 he should have been alowed to run his race, didn't make any difference in the end for Alonso's chances for championship so why bother taking it away from Massa...

Alonso needs a swift kick in the *****.

What a whiner. If McLaren pulled that stunt they'd be banned from F1.

I just watched the race. I'm a Ferrari fan.....but Ferrari should seriously be ashamed of itself. That was PATHETIC.

Why, no matter for which team she races, does this sort of shameful crap always occur in Alonsette's immediate orbit?

Jesus H. Jones....if she was faster, she should have been talented enough to pass ON HER OWN.

Came here to say this.

Everyone knows that passing in F1 is hard, but that's what one has to do to win. Pass without wrecking. Ms Alonso could not do that, even if she manage to be .1sec/lap faster ever now and then. So Alonso demanded that the team cheat for him. Alonso has a fine history of whining and cheating in F1. This is just more added to his fine legacy.

Isn't it called "racing"? Isn't a faster car/driver supposed to pass a slower one?
That sucked.

Not much of a race after 1st lap. I wanted Massa to fight Alonso, make it a race, for all of us watching.
