What's the point ... if the results get scrambled by officiating?

Might as well play it safe. After all, the race is in Italy so no car that isn't all red can win:

1. Massa
2. Raikkonenn
3. Hamilton

Bourdais and Vettel again in the points.

But I bet you can be just as arbitrary and capricious!

I really don't want to participate, so remove me from the list....

Sad but true. Ferrari are just purely manipulative at the core.

Monza will be Kimi, followed by Massa, followed by Massa again.

I've put Massa down for 2nd and 3rd only because the idea that FIA will make him 1st, 2nd and 3rd is a bit out there.

True.........except that Massa wears Ferrari red so it's not as far-fetched as others would think.

Oh and breaking news.................the U.S. Grand Prix....could be back in 2010. And Bernie "cryptically" told Peter Windsor that he's looking at several places (didn't say yes or no to Indy) but I wonder what other tracks it could be at??

My guess is one of the "new" tracks being built recently:

Miller Motorsports Park (Tooele, Utah)
Barber Motorsports Park (Birmingham, Alabama)
New Jersey Motorsports Park

Or an established track like Road America in Wisconsin.

Or they may even go back to the past.......Watkins Glen (Watkins Glen, (upstate) NY)

Yeah ... after all of that WOT time at Spa, that might be a factor.

i think they put spa and monza back to back so the announcers can have the opportunity to yell "KAHBLAMMO!!"
