Hill: McLaren move right for Alonso

[raphael123]

Who knows, the cars might have been equal, but the drivers? :

True, I think that was definately the case in Malaysia. Ferrari, and in particular, Massa, cost Ferrari the chance of a 1-2.

However I think even though Alonso had a bad day, the McLaren didn't have the pace all weekend to beat Ferrari.

I don't think many people rate Massa above that of Alonso. And so far this year, Hamilton and Alonso have been near faultless all year, compared to the Ferrari drivers, with Massa making rookie errors, and Kimi being rather conservative so far.

No, I think sometimes things are as simple as they seem - Ferrari had a better car

It's 2:1 to Ferrari.

Ferrari quite easily had an advantage, albeit a small one.

They qualified 1st and 3rd. McLaren were 2nd and 4th.
They finished 1st and 3rd. McLaren were 2nd and 5th.
Fastest laps was 1st and 3rd. McLaren had 2nd and 4th.

Only the biased would claim McLaren were equal to Ferrari in Bahrain

Now your turn, try telling this to Garry,

Now your turn, try telling this to Garry,

lol trust me I've tried - and failed haha.

I find it a shame, Garry is usually quite accurate concerning F1 matters when Ferrari aren't related, or he is neutral, but when it comes to giving an opinion on Ferrari, Schumacher, or Montoya - he talks the biggest pile of BS ever!

However according to some canadians here, it's not a stupid opinion, it's just an opinion. I think some of what Garry says (who I quite like as a forumer in fairness :up is proof some opinions are stupid.

Yeah, more different opinions spice up the forum to be more than delicious sauce.

I'm not sure whether this has already been mentioned somewhere, but arguably one of the reasons, why McLaren-Mercedes is so good this year, is the 19 000-rev limiter. Mercedes failed to build as competitive V8 engine as the rivals had and reducing revs has had a smaller negative effect on them than on rivals.
