Ferrari wins third successive year in Istanbul
May 12th, 2008
Ferrari wins third successive year in Istanbul.
Felipe Massa finishes 1st and Kimi Raikkonen in 3rd. Lewis Hamilton gives us a striking race and winds in 2nd position. Istanbul was another fantastic race in this F! season. Ferrari extends its constructors championship lead with 63 points and BMW coming in at a surprising 2nd place with 44 points. McLaren-Mercedes has 42 points. but i have not heard a final decision on whether they will be able to keep points earned this year. Max Mosley is still fighting the scandal that broke earlier this year when pictures surfaced on him with hookers dressed in Nazi uniforms and Nazi flags. If this is really true, then he needs to go ASAP. This is only hurting F1 and he has shown he not very good at managing F1 anyway. The bad rule changes that keep coming are a showing of Max and Bernie’s lack of knowledge of the sport and both should step down to stop the destruction of the sport. Super Aguri-Honda has ceased racing and has been placed in receivership.
