He wasnt the only one to play about in the pit lane run off! You have to hand it to the guy he did one hell of a job even with the stop go! Although
no one made a joke about Alonso benefiting from a safety car again teehee!
The one who dies with the most toys wins!

Best over taking move in F1 since Hakkinen stuffed Schumacker and the back marker at the same time.
Good effort, even though he is a cock

i can see his point that if they wernt team mates then it wouldnt have been such a big deal, but it wasnt really racing, he pretty deliberately forced
his team mate into a dangerous position alowing him to 'overtake', looked like something you'd see on the roads between two drivers
going from a double to single lane in traffic.
had it been between two non teamates i bet the loosing party would have something to say.
but maybe driving like that would make f1 better? anyway, he's a cock.
away from cars, now cycling and building TT bikes

Well at least I seem to have some agreement out there even if it is only about character rather than technicalities 
It looks like the Midget is winning at the moment......

Well if Massa doesn't have a problem with it then I don't see why anyone else should have a problem...
Massa himself said that he made a mistake and Alonso took advantage of it. Massa didn't know Alonso was pitting at the same time or he might
have taken a different line.
Also, Alonso has been careful so far this season not to upset Massa or Ferrari with any rash overtaking moves on Massa despite being held up by him on
several occasions. In my opinion it is about time that Alonso took the initiative because Massa this year is "okay" at best and not many
people think he can win the DC. Too early for any form of team orders but Alonso needs to start building his DC position even if it means risking
putting Massa's nose out of joint a bit.
Personally I find Hamilton to be far more of "a c@ck" than Alonso and I think most of the drivers would tend to agree. Alonso is
intelligent, focussed and utterly relentless and will take some stopping this year I think. I just hope Ferrari don't screw up on strategy or
reliability too often.
My ideal top 3 DC positions at the end of the year are:
Alonso
Button
Vettel

Massa isnt exactly going to admit if he has a problem is he? It was pretty obvious that Hamilton and Alonso didnt get on in Mclaren. If Massa started
telling Alonso where to go, one of them would be out of the team at the end of the year and it probably wouldnt be Alonso.
How long can i resist the temptation to drop a V8 in?

Actually the Massa I know is very likely to complain if he feels aggrieved by Alonso. Remember last year when he said something along the lines of
Alonso knowing about Piquet's crash plans. This was not long after Alonso had been confirmed as a Ferrari driver.
Of course, Massa might have realised already that Alonso is the real deal in the same way as the Ferrari engineers who are more than impressed and
might be less likely now to rock the boat. I think Massa will already be benefiting from the development skills of Alonso and has copied his setup on
at least one occasion.

well, its a race, ok, there's no overtaking in the pits, but where does the pit lane officially start? isn't it where the speed limit
starts? i think its still part of the race track, soo.....

Correct - Brundle has often commented that the drivers must "race" right up to the speed limit line. Some have lost it in the pitlane in
the past.

Didn't Lewis Hamilton pull the same move on Vettel?

Perhaps he was just trying to stay as far as possible from the kitty litter he got stuck in a couple of years ago...
