the sixth race of the season, the Spanish Grand Prix! :D :beer:
sorry i missed the Euro GP, but i had issues with my psu, vid card, etc, but all is better now. :) all seems to better for Ferrari as well, as Schumie won his second race in a row and Massa was third. the only problem with last week's race from the prancing horse's perspective is that Alonso finished second, so Schumie only gained 2 points in his quest to regain the title.
Alosno has never won in Spain, and he hopes to change that this weekend, but he will have to deal with a renewed Ferrari, as well as the likes of Wurz (Williams) and Klien (RBR). the McLarens were well back, but this is only Friday practice, and cars did limited laps.

Ide has been booted out of F1. he was a slow driver in a slow car and a danger to the rest of the drivers. he needs to gain more experience in an F1 car, perhaps as a test driver: http://www.tsn.ca/auto_racing/news_story.asp?id=165429
JV has been penalized 10 spots since his egineers had to examine the engine for problems, after it was "dropped" (or, Heidfeld was pissed that he was outclassed by a guy supposedly on his way out of F1 so he took a hammer to JV's engine. ;)). stupid rule: http://www.itv-f1.com/News_Article.aspx?PO_ID=35865
JV should never have been penalized for "blocking" Fisichella. it's Fisi's fault that he waited so long to set a fast lap: http://www.itv-f1.com/News_Article.aspx?PO_ID=35844
Button is still looking for his first victory. don't bet on him for this weekend. last year, he was DQ'ed in san Marino and had his finish in Spain wiped out as well: http://www.itv-f1.com/News_Article.aspx?PO_ID=35870
