Fernando Alonso takes no prisonners, a well known fact, and his opponents in the Spanish GP will testify to that. A perfect, agressive start (as usual), and the Spaniard was right at it, devouring the opposition, one by one. But after that, victory depended on very well executed a four pitstops strategy (five sets of highly degradable Pirelli tyres...) by the Scuderia Ferrari. All very well, but is this racing?

To race or not to race?
To disobey or not to?
To betray or not to?
To win at all cost or not to?
Are you Vettel, or Webber?
Is Formula 1 a sport, or not?
To be or not to be...
Pandora's box is now open.

Sisu. Great Fins, with true Finnish spirit, are endowed with sisu. "Bravado and bravery, ferocity and tenacity, the ability to keep fighting after most people would have quit, and to fight with the will to win" (Time magazine, 1940). Yes, this is our man, Kimi Raikkonen. "Leave me alone, I know what I'm doing!". And sure enough, at the wheel of an amazingly well balanced Lotus-Renault machine, Kimi destroyed the opposition in the Australian Grand Prix. If 2012 showed what a strong comeback the Finn had achieved, 2013 may well bring us a surprise of epic proportions... I think there are a few nervous team managers in the paddock.
