But I agree with you. Massa is clearly a real gent, as his behaviour at Interlagos in 2008 thoroughly demonstrated.

Had no idea.

Y’know, every time I try to really, really admire one of these guys, something like this comes along. Schuey stops for a sandwich at Rascasse, Lewis tells a whopper for trivial purposes, Rubens whines about his team, Jense boasts of being “#1, bay-bee!” a little too loudly… And it all vanishes in a puff of smoke.

Massa’s currently my ‘ethics’ point leader, but his career is young. Vettel’s on the podium as well.

Re Kovi, isn’t it strange how it works? To pass through such a finely grained filter of tests and challenges, arriving in such a rarefied field of competition, and then to demonstrate an absence of fire… When you’re already receiving the big paychecks!

Algusuari made some comments that we’re a little weird this week too, something about how the drivers in F1 weren’t very friendly. And I’m thinking, Hell no they’re not friendly — They’re risking their lives in the face of immutable laws of physics for money and glory, kid! It’s not about Christmas cards!

I think the Planet-F1 article is referring to the fact that Fernando Alonso threatened to go to the FIA with his evidence that McLaren was in possession of Ferrari data unless he was given number 1 status over Lewis Hamilton.

As for Heikki Kovalainen, it is indeed notable that he does not appear to be in the frame at all. From what I gather — and this is totally unsubstantiated and may be wrong — Kovalainen has motivational issues.

The Driver Dance is coming to a close. But how many weeks has it been since you’ve heard the name “Kovalainen?”

The fact that Ron Dennis had gone to Max Mosley himself to inform him after Alonso tried to blackmail the team at the 2007 Hungarian GP seemed to be overlooked.

What’s meant by that — “Alonso tried to blackmail”?
