FORMULA 1 GRAN PREMIO SANTANDER D'ITALIA 2010 (Monza)

So.... with everything to play for, Ferrari finally delivered when it matters most. Given that it's been since Brazil 2008 when Ferrari had pole (I know... amazing isn't it?), it was crucial to grab as many points as possible. As we all know, F.Alonso didn't exactly have a good start, which is not surprising since this is not the first time this year. Even more surprising is that F.A has always been a good starter during his time in Renault, but somehow, perhaps Ferrari's starting/traction is simply crap.

Nevertheless, J.Button got the better of FA at the start but as we also know now, it was the pitstops that made the difference. Apart from that, there's of course good ol 'I can't wait to get in front' Lewis H, which got him to the gravel trap instead. By then, he had barely even completed half the track! The other interesting event was S.Vettel literally used just 1 set of tires till the end of the race & only made his mandatory pit stop at the very last lap! Which kinda of proves that the tires can actually last that long especially when Monza is considered to the be fastest track in the whole F1 calendar.

It should be noted that both the current championship front runners did not score well today which also means that the competition is still far from over. This is especially true since the points scored for 1st-3rd is a lot different than before. The next few races will be very interesting indeed....

As for our little league... again, not much have changed other than the points difference between 1st & last is getting bigger & bigger!
