I know the cars are in Parc Ferme, I never said anything about changing anything to the car.

I think Ferrari should have
a) brought the car in after lap 1 to check if the car is safe, and either go back out to put in a timed lap or just accepted P10 on the grid
or
b) if the car felt safe enough to do 2 more laps on his first Q3 run, why couldn't he go for his timed lap at that time rather than coming back in & wasting tires on a second run?

Either way, with the car's damage taken into consideration...he just ran too many laps that could have been better managed. Maybe Monza isn't a tire-hungry track like some places, but I would just expect better from the best minds in the business.

I'm praying the 2 McLaren's knock each other out (counting on Hambone to really assert his diva attitude) and Massa pulls a victory =D

I'm praying that Massa divebombs into turn 1 & takes out himself and the McLarens...then Schumi gets his first comeback victory in front of the Italian crowd.

That role for Massa works for me, but instead of Schumi, Kimi takes the win =D

Button's out...sad sight for him. This will probably relegate him to a teammate for the rest of the season rather than a championship contender.
