Sure the car failed but he was sloppy. Now Massa is getting so much critisism for spinning out in Malaysia and there are even calls to replace him, now he only did 1 mistake more than Raikkonen :!: :!:
Massa is a very good driver, but we are still waiting to see him raise his game. I would not see him winning a championship with the current competitors for example.

At the moment I do not think he should be replaced at Ferrari BTW

I agree with you jido on Massa but it is the media that really bothers me. Sure Massa hasn't done himself any good but take it easy on the guy!!

I wonder if Hamilton spins twice would the media call for him to be replaced ??

Having said all that, now that Jean Todt is no longer running the Ferrari team, I would love to see Raikkonen and Alonso head to head ..... as long as there is no favouritism
I'm back and yes supporting Alonso "The Cute" in the Ferrari!

:shock: :shock: I have to agree with you JayVee :shock: :shock:

I think that all the facts have not come to light either. When it comes to Ferrari, the drivers will always have to take the blame for this type of incident, even if it was caused by something else.
Massa initially said there were other factors which caused the spin. I am not even sure if he has actually admitted to driver error on this one, but you will never hear Ferrari say there was a problem with the car.

As for the head to head, well we can all dream cant we.
I'm in shape

Round is a shape...........
