F1 Digest - Brazil GP

Published

By Christine Blachford

Sidepodcast F1 Digest logo

They've been working all season for this championship and it literally came down to the wire, closer than any of us could have expected. The last F1 Digest of the season fills you in on everything that happened in those 71 laps.

The Race

It was just epic, right from the start. Only two retirees, and just two bouts of rain, but a lot of pitstops later and it came down to the very last corner of the entire race. We also saw some interesting strategies, with mixed results.

Conclusions

Coulthard and Massa are both understandably miserable, one's F1 career has ended in dismal style, and the other has had a rotten end to a tough year. However, there are always two sides to every story, and we have the joy of Vettel, Alonso and Hamilton to balance it all out.

    I'm curious about what Kubica said - they started on the wrong tyre because they had duff information. How come Heidfeld's data was okay?

    Best finish to an F1 race ever!. All fair and square. No favours for Hamilton from any of the other drivers. F1 at it's toughest...great stuff!. Roll on next season.

    I don’t buy the supposition that if Massa’s engine hadn’t blown in Hungary he would’ve been Champion. For that matter any other mishap or penalty in the first two thirds of the season. If things were different in the last 3 races Lewis & MacLaren would’ve pushed as hard as hell rather than go conservative
    What happened, happened. And the teams reacted to it

    That intrests me, mainly because I'm a BMW fan, but also what he could have impacted on the race had he started on inters, as in on the parade lap

    Agreed. The butterfly affect would kick-in. If's and but's are whimsical as far as i'm concerned. It's best to accept what has happened rather than doing your head in thinking things could have been different. Other dynamics would also be a factor.

    isn't that what bernie invented the off-season for though?

    The FormulaPod guys made a funny comment about Bernie walking on the grid (unusually) on his own like some lost, Alzheimer's adled old-timer.

    Either that or it was because he's taken everyone's money :D

    I think they were splitting their strategies and thought there'd be a semi-dry line to risk

    The rain was bouncing off the road so hard that they had to postpone the start of the race and announce that there had been a change of climatic conditions. What other info did they need?

    I get the feeling that BMW were trying to split strategies and ended up wrong on Kubica's part.

    I have to thank you me and Christine. This stuff was so helpful, because of the time difference and all that jazz, I miss a lot of thing over here on the left coast of America. Without you, Maurice Hamilton's podcast, and the checkered flag podcast, among other there is no way I could track everything for my own interest and the stuff I do for an another F1 website.

    Anyhow thanks again, and what the heck are we going to talk about for the next five months?

    ... I am curious to understand why Kubica, 1 lap down, decided to pass Vettel and Hamilton, then hold up Hamilton to let Vettel past.
    Perhaps in the confusion I have the incident wrong, but it did seem the right thing to do.
    Maybe I misunderstand the rules or etiquette of the back markers.

    For the off season.

    1. We can practice pretending that there is ANYTHING green about Formula 1.
    You know green strips on the tyres and saving a few gallons of fuel with restricted practices or KERS, compared to the 100,000 of gallons consumed by all the large transports of support trucks and shipping, flying, fans to races etc.
    There is NOTHING green in F1. Repeat F1 is not GREEN - ever.

    2. Dream that we need cost cutting.
    Already this season we could see the compromise on performance by the two engine rule.
    Did you notice that every second race, especially with the Ferraris, they were considerable slower -saving their engines.
    F1 should be about maximum performance or at least allow a new engine for the last race with no penalty.
    Back to cost cutting, agreed there needs to be some restraints, but Max Moaning with his dire warnings are pathetic and with his visions it will soon be Formula_Uniform_Zero_Interest.

    3. Thanks again to the Sidepostcast team. You make the F1 season so much more fun and interesting.

    don't think so (but this year has been a blur), can do though.

    Hallo, lads and lasses!

    The wombat was nowhere to be seen in the last few days, I know, but as always the wombat was watching you. I had some unfinished business to take care of: those animals at RF1 blog were getting out of control, I had to make sure that the order was restored.

    Now, I decided to experiment with the last race of the season and was following it on my mobile and watching Sky News at the same time to tease myself, they had some former McLaren or Jordan bloke in the studio who nearly had a heart attack when LH lost his top 5 spot near the end of the race. They were also going live from Silverstone and BRDC pub or whatever with Damon Hill, J. Watson and J. Scheckter sweating and all looking very nervy. It was so much fun, ladies and gentlemen! And I adored celebrations by Massa and Hamilton family at the same time, German TV tried to interview this singer Nicole Schle-something-lh's-girlfriend and she was just screaming some meaningless phrases, there's a video if you click on my name. Then Kai Ebel ran towards HAM's brother and poor fella (the brother, not Kai) fell on the floor and was like having convulsions, I've never seen anybody roll on the floor because of an F1 race. Amazing! Ron was trying to discover hair on top of his in his head, I guess he lost some during that last lap. I want more of that, please.

    Then two Eddies gave their views on the phone: Irvine and Jordan. IRV said he needed a cup of tea to calm down and called the FIA decisions this year "stupid". Jordan gave an interesting opinion and said McLaren were a bunch of fools because they didn't put Kova in front of Ferraris in the qualifying to slow Massa down, well, he's right you know, I think Kova with light fuel load could've been on the front row and would've helped LH.

    Of course people like feel sorry for Massa but it has to be said he lost the title all on his own with his Sepang spin and Ferrari had some embarrassing engine failures this year, plus he didn't deserve that Spa win now credited to his name by Ferrari International Assistance, so don't you cry tonight, Felipe. Schu acknowledged that F2008 is fast but too difficult to drive, hence the Silverstone spin fest for both MAS and RAI. McLaren did a better job and LH was more consistent, all hail Lewis.

    Now for next year I'd like to see night races in Australia, Malaysia and Japan and China to save us from waking up early, wet races in Barcelona and Valencia to save us from siesta and possibly the announcement of Portuguese GP for 2010.

    the wombat will be back.

    Had to deal with some out-of-control animals, albeit not on a blog. I’d decided (foolishly) that the best way to ward off a feline interloper which had been helping itself to our cats’ grub would be to set the flap to “in only”, thereby temporarily trapping it in the house and giving it a fright. Things didn’t go according to plan…

    You need an “invitation” from a government agency (in this case the circuit) as part of the paperwork; the problem this year was that said invitation didn’t arrive at the visa agency until a couple of weeks before the race...

It's from 2007 and Lewis and Fernando literally fight over being No.1 :D See who else you can spot in it too :P

    If this calendar stays as is, I’ll probably have to do the first four GPs – this is going to be very costly (in terms of palliating Mrs C). There’s also the nigh-on impossibility of getting the Chinese visas in time. {Stuart C - 17 comments ago}

    That sounds really rough. As if not seeing your wife for ages wasn't punishment enough...

    Though I will say getting a China visa cannot possibly be as impossible for you as it is for me. The Chinese have a rule that stops me from even applying for one because they consider my Asperger's Syndrome to be a mental disorder, and any foreigner with a mental disorder is banned from entering China...

    What a peculiar classification and an unnecessarily draconian rule...

    I just re-read the calendar and spotted a glaring error in it. Who in their right mind would plan a calendar that has a 4 week gap after Hungary which is always dull. Of course it gives us 4 weeks to look forward to ....Valencia. OOPS.

    Errr... hang on, isn't that what they did last year? Hehehe. Maybe they're miraculously expecting Valencia to suddenly give us a good race next year. Or, more probably, they're betting that the new cars will produce better racing there.

    As a footnote to the above, I hear tell from a chap who was planning to cover the A1GP at Chengdu that the visa procedure/rules have changed – again!

    yeah, the article's a waste of bandwidth, but i love the forum entry:

    "Was truly disappointed last night. Saw and heard the fireworks and assumed it must be a victory parade for Lewis. Duly went out intent on inviting him for a beer... Turned out it was just some 400 year old tradition."

    An enterprising director could probably have conjured the events of ‘flap-gate’ into a Scooby Doo or Benny Hill-style chase sequence, that’s for sure
