Ferrari failed to give a Massa a car fast enough. The Brazilian was forced to attempt a light fuel load strategy which fell apart when he could not deliver in qualifying. Speed was just not there.
Speed was there for Renault with Alonso once again looking strong. After the first lap or so the race was a snoozer, huge track, no traffic to speak of, no rain... glad I did not stay up to watch this one live.
Much yammering will go on about Massa passing Raikkonen, probably from the same people who though it was fine when, year ago, Hakkinen passed Coulthard or even this year when Kovalainen let Hamilton though in Germany and who complained bitterly about Ferrari having a designated number one driver in the past.
Now on to Brazil with Massa and Ferrari surely wondering about that engine failure in Hungary...
