A double finish finally for Force India but still no points

Adrian Sutil’s heroics at the Monaco GP had greatly albeit briefly breathed hope in Force India http://www.sidepodcast.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/sutil.jpgfans and the teams camp, its all but gone now, the French GP saw them taking the checkered flag 18th and 19th. On this day (actually that day yesterday) Fisichella was the better of two, 18th. To be honest, no body - not the fans, the broadcasting channels/producers, commenters really care for what Force India is doing, having a team named “Force India” (”why force india” “why force india” “why force india”?????!!! :|) has changed nothing in F1, the battles at the sharp end are much more fun whatwith so much going on:

  • Massa in great form
  • Two new teams becoming competitive; Toyota and BMW
  • Then there’s the new twist of Mclaren struggling
  • Also, it remains to be seen what the reining world champ Fernando Alonso will be able to do in his home team, Renault.

As far as Force India and its drivers are concerned, its important to understand that they aren’t racing against the other teams really, view it as Fisi and Sutil racing each other and then maybe it’ll be some fun.

Anyway, here are the results of the French GP 2008:

1. Felipe Massa Brazil Ferrari-Ferrari 70 laps 1:31:50.245 –> Winner

2. Kimi Raikkonen Finland Ferrari-Ferrari +17.9

3. Jarno Trulli Italy Toyota-Toyota +28.2

10. Lewis Hamilton Britain McLaren-Mercedes +54.5

11. Timo Glock Germany Toyota-Toyota +57.7
