One of Alonoso's complaints last season was that Hamilton was coasting by getting Alonso's setup to start with at each track.

They've also brought back their mass damper system. I don't know how they got around the rule... - snoogins 2008-04-26 16:58:20 (91 views)

Not so sure about that, McL is known to pull blankets over our eyes so I'd expect a long first run - Rally_nutcase_1982 2008-04-26 18:44:37 (88 views)

Yeah, good point. And for sure, I think Alonso was very very light on fuel to pump up the home crowd - jbchinoca 2008-04-26 19:04:22 (72 views)

It turned out he had 1 less lap of fuel than Massa did, and out qualied him!!! - ddg 2008-04-28 15:24:52 (67 views)

They were pretty quick during winter testing there. Just a bad day I guess, - jbchinoca 2008-04-26 16:47:01 (82 views)
