Alonso/Raikkonen at Ferrari...???? to weird !!!

xoxoxoo

The battle on track between the two top teams in Formula One continued this afternoon at Spa Francorchamps and as was the case last week at Monza, it was Fernando Alonso and McLaren Mercedes that led the way at the close of play on the opening day.

Alonso recorded a best lap of 1:46.654s and was able to lap within a few tenths of this on a fairly regular basis this afternoon, while team-mate Lewis Hamilton did not seem so comfortable with his MP4-22. Hamilton would close the gap by half a second late in the 90-minute session, reducing the deficit to just over a tenth of a second.

Felipe Massa was back on track after his incident this morning in his F2007. The Ferrari driver was third fastest while Ferrari team-mate Kimi Raikkonen had to be content with fourth on this occasion, half a second off the ultimate pace

...........Go red !!!!


Kimi Raikkonen and Felipe Massa proved closely matched in qualifying for the Belgian Grand Prix as they locked-out an all Ferrari front row this afternoon. Just 0.017s separated the two over the 7.004 KM circuit, but it was Raikkonen who claimed the all-important Pole Position.

It was a relatively trouble-free run for the Ferrari duo, although a problem on Massa’s F2007 right at the start of the session was a concern for the Brazilian. Over at rivals McLaren, Fernando Alonso had it all to do on his final timed lap of the session after a spin at Rivage left him sitting provisionally tenth on the grid.

Alonso played it cool and his final lap was good enough to move him third fastest ahead of team-mate Lewis Hamilton who has not really got to grips with his MP4-22 this weekend. Hamilton starts fourth, but will be disappointed to be three-tenths off the pace of Alonso.
