Michael Schumacher tried to cutoff Nick Heidfeld too late:mad:!
I don't think so. There was more to it. Cause the tv camera just cut to them when Heidfeld hit Michael. If we saw about 5 - 10 seconds before hand, we would know better.

But the FIA better be VERY careful with the engine penalties after Schuey and Sato's stunts where they did't bother to qualify and change their engines ...
Thats pretty much legal - The FIA has the change the rules about retiring a perfectly fine car before the end of a gp. *points to BAR* apparently Jenson was really embrassessed.

yeh about sato and schumi retiring was alright... cuz i mean they crashed as it is... did massa change engines as well?... though if schumi/sato/massa did finish their first qualifying they shouldnt change engines just cuz their last....

massa / schumacher and sato all changed engines. And all three had reasons. Massa and sato crashed and schumacher had electrical problems associated with the engine.

From now on, if theres a fast car towards the back of the grid - its kinda obvious that the team will change the engine, and really, theres nothing to stop them.

i doubt RBR or sauber can afford to...

and massa didnt crash... he only got fucked over by the weather and his dry tyres..

Sauber aren't that poor but they aren't that rich either. After all they are using ferrari engines - god only knows how much they charge them. Although, theres a rumor about bmw becoming saubers engine supplier.

RBR are loaded. The Austrian guy who owns the team is like a billionaire.

Not a billion - maybe a few hundred million. Anything to get promotion. I dunno though, haven't really read much about red bull. After all - i'm supposed to be doing my geology homework ... not sitting on here talking about f1 - oh well. Maybe there might be some figures soon that come out showing what they spend.

kimi had a lighter first stint than michael. But kimi took less fuel on than michael during the pitstop - hence he managed to overtake him. But the second round of pitstops michael came out infront of kimi.
