Massa pits from the lead...........8.5 sec. stop, he should be good for fuel the remainder of the race if the race ends prior to 60 laps

Speed's Peter Windsor w/an interesting quote(paraphrasing), "Taking a cue from Murray Walker and not tempting fate or the kiss of death, isn't it amazing that both Renaults are running still at the moment." :lol: :lol: :shock:

Lead commentator Bob Varsha went one further, "I don't think it's going to rain again today." :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hamilton being shown the blue flag as Massa approaches from behind; Hamilton lets him through..............

One of the wheel covers is off of one of the cars; who's is it, though?

Now we know; the wheel cover came off of Fisichella's Renault......... :shock: :shock: :shock:

Alonso narrows Massa's lead to under 5 seconds; Webber still third, but over 40 seconds back of Alonso

Weather reports are that rain could be less than 10 minutes away........way to go, Varsha, saying it wouldn't rain again! :lol: :lol: :shock:

Renault figures, we're out of the points, let's gamble!

Kovalainen radios that "it's starting to sprinkle now"; that was before Fisichella passed him for 8th

Race control reporting that there is a drizzling rain, but where is it?
And more importantly, who will bite first and pit for intermediates?
