2008 FORMULA 1 Belgian Grand Prix
Re: 2008 FORMULA 1 Belgian Grand Prix
You can look at the first post to see live stream options.
First turn in Spa is not the same with Hungary's in that the distance from the start line is too small to be able to pass a car. Massa may have a chance after Eau Rouge if he takes slipstream of Hamilton's car for Turn 5, Les Combes, which in turn will be a real Turn 1 for Felipe. Otherwise, looking at the lap times and differentiation, it will be Hamilton's race knowing that Hamilton and Massa will be at the same fuel level but Lewis seems to be 0.4s quicker than Massa. It's really a huge advantage even if Massa passes Lewis at the start, Lewis may not let Felipe to go away.

I don't see Massa passing Lewis at the start or in the first lap, he is on the dirtier side of the track at the start. However, Massa's starts have been very good so far.

Re: 2008 FORMULA 1 Belgian Grand Prix
I think Massa should overtake Hamliton as soon as possible as the race starts so that he can have hope to win the race or else Hamliton will be create a long gap since he is faster than Massa or Who knows if Ferrari gets there setup right then Massa can be faster then Hamliton

Please may there be rain,or we're in for another dreary race with the aerodynamics stopping overtaking and the leader at the first lap winning the race.

yeah. D'Ambrosio was unlucky at the end but great drive by Maldonado. Valerio = Spin-a-race. Senna = noob.
Re: 2008 FORMULA 1 Belgian Grand Prix
I was watching it too. Great move on the last lap.
