Even if he didnt, it'd take a brave man not to give him one

I'm not convinced he'll actually race again though.

OK, old saying - once a racer, always a racer

But.........

Head injuries generally shift the goal posts to the complete opposite.

I like Massa, and I'd hate to see him go.
Not just because I'm a Ferrari fan, but because he's a good down to earth bloke.

Well I have to say I'm massively surprised that Michael's agreed to drive, especially after all the PR willi weber's been spouting

Leaving aside your "issue", given that on recent form the McLaren is the better car, the fact that Hamilton out drove Alonso in the same car in 2007, and the fact that Alonso beat Schumacher to the title twice in a Renault which was at best on a par with the Ferrari at that time, I suspect you may be disappointed

Yes, I agree - Massas recorvery is very encouraging.
I hope it continues at the same pace.


This thread is not the place for my "issues" - so I apologise and shall take them with me.

I didn't like the guy at first, but I think the scandal after Melbourne, combined with him having to put up with a **** car for the first 8 races, has done him a world of good. He actually seems to realise that it is not 'all about him' anymore.

And that drive in Hungary was truely awesome.

I see Hamilton as a top class clean driver, he is a young bloke and deals with the publicity and the media as well as any of the star drivers.

His drive in Hungary was very good indeed.
