Belgium 2010 GP

And then there were two... Spa in the wet is one of those races which separates the men from the boys. Red light for Alonso, Button and Vettel, green light for Hamilton and Webber! In the treacherous conditions of the majestic Ardennes race track, it took massive mental strenghth to successfully overcome the various pitfalls, and while you could say that Alonso and Button were "unlucky" to get hit from the rear, truth is that they shouldn't have been there: wrong place, wrong time... Destiny has its ways, but there is always some personal responsability involved as well. The three challengers are nevertheless ferocious racers, and they certainly haven't given up on their bid for the crown; coming races will be hot!

In a world where merchandising goals are fast replacing all other human values, one domain still has a special meaning, a place apart, the world of sports. The beauty of the sporting act lies in its purity, a battle against oneself and against others, where organized competition requires the key element of fair play. Frankly, it may be a bit of a lost battle, yes, but the child in all of us wants to believe that fair play will continue to remain the cornerstone of sports. That is why, when it became obvious that the race in Hockenheim had been rigged, the overwhelming feeling was one of outrage, anger and disenchantment. Forcing Felipe Massa to give the lead and victory to his teammate Fernando Alonso, was in itself a scandal, but doing that one year exactly to the day after the brave little Brazilian hero nearly got killed in a freak accident in Hungary is a total disgrace that will haunt the Scuderia Ferrari for a long time, regardless of the cynical comments that were made to justify this indefensible plot.
