Probably the difference in series. I think Bourdais probably just is better in low downforce situations and long braking distances.
But I'm wondering if we could blame the engineer for this. Who was the engineer on his car? Does Buemi have the same…

Do you think he still has the funds?
Just two years ago his personal fortune still was reported to be 186 million USD. I'd say it depends on how much he's still willing to waste.
He could definitely afford a couple more …
I'm just saying that I doubt you need to run a windtunnel at all to be able to run a mid field F1 car. Especially when you look at how many Minardi's ran at a respectable gap from the field without wind tunnels or CFD.

I read somewhere that their car will be a totally CFD design. That can't be right can it?
You old, old, old, old, old man. ;)
I doubt anyone will ever be able to point out CFD designed cars from their windtunnel counterparts. Hell, half the time Mi…

Fisichella did very well indeed. Too bad there weren't any points to reward him.
I thought one of the BBC journalists made a striking remark too. "The new regulations made the cars run closer together, yet they still can't overtake."
I wouldn't give up all hope yet. If Stoddart has some loose change left he might pick up STR next year. Your enthousiasm may vary though, depending on whether or not you're one of those Gian Carlo fanatics.
Good news. Although, I think it must be said that they basically had no choice. No one seems to want to buy the team as it is right now.

He was quite pissed after that race as well. He insisted that Doornbos made more than one defensive move, he even refused to shake Doornbos' hand during the podium ceremony. I don't think I've ever seen a funnier ceremony than that one.
I'm a bit o…

Don't you think KERS has been an expensive blind alley? There doesn't seem to be enough benefit to offset the weight of those bloody batteries. (+ did you see how quick Kimi jumped from the car during damp practice?! It is…
[offtopic]Where was the topic on Jos winning the LMP2 championship? Nevermind, this is way more interesting of course![/offtopic]
Anyway, I wouldn't be surprised if this turned out to be true. Jos has a history of violence. But it could also just b…
I think you could be right there. Seeing how much trouble Hamilton had to finally take the championship, makes me wonder if he'll ever win it again. He's great at mixing brilliant races with disappointing ones.
Best Driver: Hamilton. Compared to Kovalainen's results, I think Hamilton got the best out of a car that in reality hasn't been better than the Ferraris all season.
Most Improved Driver: Massa. I thought he was extremely average last year, besides …
