Ferrari Mailing List: Re: GP Japan (spoiler)

All the drivers out there were awesome for that race, I reckon.

Very very brave stuff. 

Re the tyres, I was wondering the same thing...email or no email, it was
never going to be the right tyre to start on.

Steve,

That was my exact same thoughts.  Ferrari really looked stupid today. (Even
if Ferrari was allowed to be on Inters, it was obvious to everyone that
Extreme Wets was the correct choice for the entire day.)  But, I will say
that they finished pretty good for starting out with their heads up their
butts.  Imagine how they might have finished if they hadn't started out dead
last.  And I also didn't like that fake pit stop method of getting Kimi past
Massa.  Why not have Massa run wide off of a corner (just like Kimi did at
least 10 times today) and let Kimi pass that way.  Then you can hold onto
your 3-4 finish instead of the 3-6 finish (which was almost a 3-7 finish).
I think the team looked stupid today and the drivers turned what should have
been a lost day into something almost acceptable.

Damn. I felt cold and wet just sitting on my couch and watching it on TV.
I'm glad Steve Cook and I didn't stay in Japan the extra week in order to
catch pneumonia and watch a Safety Car enjoy a lapping day... Not a fun race
to watch, but glad that Kimi clawed his way back to the podium, and any time
Alonso gets a goose egg is awesome. Hmm... maybe not such a bad race after
all. :)
 
But WTF was up with the Ferrari tire situation? You're telling me that the
guys in the SPEED announcer booth thousands of miles away from Japan knew
that everyone had to be on full-wets, but the Scuderia didn't? HOW DOES THAT
HAPPEN?????????
