the last new rookie i recall making such an impact in his first few races was a certain jaques villenueve
whilst never being a fan of jv you cant take away from him he won only his fourth event and but for a problem would have beaten hill fair and square in australia
whilist it could be deemed unfair to compare lewis to jaques as jaques had the indycar crown under his belt and also ten thou plus mileage lewis has to be the best prepared rookie to date as mclaren have not only funded his career to date, with that funding they have brought him up and developed and honed his skills
maybe this will set a trend in developing youngsters earlier in there careers as a young 22 yr old showing a two time world champion the way in the same machinery aint a bad investment for ronnie and co

massa was very impressive in this run form the back but i think will be dispointed because with the pace he had in the car he could have beaten at minimum lewis and likly alonso as well
a fabulous race showing overtaking is possible at the great circuits, but a missed oppurtunity for a ferrari one two

why not make every driver submit in an FIA sealed enevelope his starting race fuel level if he makes it into the top ten shootout
in q3 each driver has to set 2 timed laps or go to the back of the grid
after the session ends the FIA can supervise the addition of fuel(easily checkable by weight) as the cars are impounded anyway
this way we see who truly is fastest out there and we go back to having the quickest man on pole so pole means something again
and as for the argument of sucess ballast with a modern car its technically dangerous to add ballast s the car has been designed to race at 600kg with balanced fuel consumption
to introduce ballast would alter the symmetry and centre of gravity and basically fundamentaly need the cars to be re-designed as most teams would opt for a longer wheelbase chassis

forgive me if im wrong but didnt the ferrari fiasco of austria force the fia into introducing rules against team orders and also they did hand ferrari a substancial fine with a suspended ban if memory serves
