The 3rd round of the Formula 1 season is in China this weekend, I’m really looking forward to it too.

The diffuser issue that has been hanging the championship in the balance has been sorted out, I notice that Mc Laren, the team that was opposing the diffuser were quick to get one fitted to their car.

Lewis was quickest in 1st practice with the new diffuser on-board, come second practice it was Rosberg and Jenson, you can read the practice 2 article over at itv-f1 http://www.itv-f1.com/News_Article.aspx?id=45573

I’m hoping Ferrari will be getting their act together soon, I cant remember when they were so on their back foot, maybe pre Schumacher. 

Anyway, we’ll see I suppose, I’ll keep you updated with views over the next few days.

If you want to put your money down leave a reply and let me know who you think will on the podium this weekend.

Later, kushtee.

Is it just me that thinks the half point system is well, erm, stupid.

I mean come on, Jenson finishes in 1st, normally 10 point but gets 5 so currently sitting on 15 points for the 2 wins.

Hamilton finishes 7th, normally 2 points but gets one, you see where I’m goin with this, he’s only 14 point behind the current leader instead of the 18 points that he should be, basically a win and a podium would see him back at the top.

No-one thought this through did they, the leaders get compromised while the back of the pack dont.

Stupid? let me know.

At last a decision that didnt go the way some people in f1 wanted it too.

Ross Brawn was always confident that his as well as Toyota and Williams diffusers were legal, he has this awesome knack of getting the most out the the rules that are dished out to the teams.

By masterclass I am of course referring to Valentino Rossi, there are 2 groups in MotoGP, Vale and the rest. Yes I hear you “Valentino Rossi didn’t win” and I know BUT, yes theres a but…

The pace of the Ducati is mighty and with the straight blasts on the losail circuit the only guy that could half hang with Stoner on the day was Rossi, see where I’m going with this, even from the start you could see the Ducati power, and yes, I love Ducati’s, alot, but, yes another but, put Stoner on another bike and he’ll  be back with the has been’s like Gibernau etc etc. The Ducati just seems to suit him sooooo much, and no, I’m not taking anything away from Stoner, he’s a cracking, neigh awesome rider and I wish him all the luck for the rest of the season.

So, we’ll have to see I suppose, Losail just seemed to suit the Stoner Ducati package, I’m sure there will be other circuits that are coming up very soon that will also but I’m gonna put my money where my mouth is and say “Stoner will not be World Champ”.

Did you see the move that D’Angelis put on Pedrosa, jeex, nearly clean took his front wheel out, I hope one of Pedrosas heavies paid a visit a few garages down, if not drop me a line Dani.

So, there we have it, the 1st one done and dusted, all be it a day late, cracking race for the 3rd, 4th, 5th etc etc placed guys, at the end of they day they couldnt hang.

See you soon.

p.s if you don’t agree, leave me a message.

kushtee.

The Moto GP season kicks off this weekend in Qatar, the normal suspects are up the front, Stoner, Rossi & Lorenzon but there is also a bit of a shakeup towards the back of the grid. Former World Champ Nicky Hayden had a crash while trying to improve on his qualy position of 16th, someone else who seems to struggle with the Ducati.

Sete Gibernau makes his returm to Moto GP and is making his debut from a lowly 17th position.

There has alse been development with the Moto2 calss which will replace the 250cc bikes with a single engine manufacturer, sounds good so keep your eyes out for that.

Looks like its going to be a bit of a runaway race for the 4 or 5 front runners, we’ll have to see I suppose,  whatever Im really looking forward to it.

Eeasy now.

Will he wont he.

After the lying that Lewis has done I should hope not, anyway I doubt he’ll be able to get in the car becasue of the size of his nose…lol

See what James Allen has to say on the matter.
