Ferrari is Back! but fined $100K

Finally, Ferrari is back with a 1 and 2 podium finished at the 2010 F1 Germany GP. It was a remarkable drive by Massa leading the race from the start overtaking both Vettel and Alonso in lap 1 before the first turn until lap 49. Follow the in-depth race analysis in the clip below.

Only after 11 races, the red prancing horse are now showing more pace in their cars to otherwise a Red Bull and McLaren duel thus far. Ferrari has certainly geared up their game by one notch for a 3 way fight for the constructor’s title. McLaren is still leading the pack with 300 points, Red Bull with 272 points and Ferrari with this 1 and 2 win is at 208 points.

With the new point scoring system and 8 more races to go this year, it is still too early to call who will take the world championship title. I have a feeling it can only be determined during the final race of the year in the Abu Dubai GP, 12 to 14 November.

clipped from www.formula1.com Felipe Massa handed Ferrari team mate Fernando Alonso a controversial victory in Sunday's German Grand Prix as the red team scored their second one-two of the season and the win they were under so much pressure to achieve before the summer break, beating Sebastian Vettel’s pole-winning Red Bull into third place. Lewis Hamilton held on to his championship lead as fourth place brought him to 157 points ahead of McLaren team mate Jenson Button, who moved to 143 points after finishing fifth. Red Bull’s Mark Webber was sixth after a race in which he was held back by an engine problem. He and Vettel are now joint third with 136 points, as Alonso closed up on 123 and Massa climbed to 85.
