There is no reference to the Hungarian GP or about Massa's condition and this is supposed to be the landing page for F1 on Rediff...and we are talking this 90 minutes after the race was over...delayed news is news denied...we have better places to go for fresh news !!

Y the champions are struggling? I feel the answer is ...
F1 requires the cars to be up to the mark to put up a good show. A small but significant diffuser change in Brawn cars has let them stay ahead of the champions including Ferraris and McLarens. When your car doesnt have in it the power to get past the other car, very little is left with the able drivers. Brawn reached stardom with its sincere effort (for the last one year) in designing its car. (resulting in diffuser change) Other champs are not fast enough as their cars are not fast enough as the Brawns or the Red Bulls.
Once the Ferraris and other champs come out with similar design change to their cars(may be later this year or next year) its gonna be a different ball game. We may see the champs at the other end of the points table.
So far, Button has had his day!!! Thanks to his team principal Mr.Brawn.
Sadly, Narain had an underpowered car which couldnt match his driving skills. I wish he gets back into F1 circuit with a good team and does well.

Dear Madhav I am quiet a follower of F1 but I could not understand this diffuser design change and its effects in the ability of a relatively new car to overcome the mighty ferrari and maclaren. Can you please explain the technicalities.

Bad cars dude!!!!! And Ferrari is badly missing Brawn. Even when Kimi won, it was Brawn's development the year before. And not to mention two other greats, Schumacher and Jean Todt. The new Ferrari team is just an infant. Poor Alonso has a bad car. Lewis is not used to an under-performing car. This is his true rookie year.

A real ferrari fan, you Vikrant...Loved your optimism...and I hope you like my sarcasm...
One of my friends thinks that F1 drivers are given NAVIGATIONAL instructions about the circuit, like those given to WRC drivers throughout the race. I know for sure that radio communication between F1 drivers and their teams are not even remotely navigational, but rather are more of updates and discussions about race strategies, and race incidents.
Can you reply with the clarification regarding this? I will be able to clear my friend's misconception, that way.

Hi Nikhil,
F1 drivers do a recce before driving on the track. I've also heard that some of the teams use virtual circuits to know them better. I do think navigational support is in the terms of who's behind one driver, the difference in lap time, the car ahead of him, his speed etc., but not similar to the WRC where the navigator states each turn, corner and the like. I'm not an expert either. I think it's easier to understand if you are a regular viewer of the races.

Hi, Also in WRC, every info is required because the terrain is uneven.In F1,tracks are pretty even and teams are already familiar with them over the weekend before the race.Also, there is a warm-up lap before the race actually starts... So they know the structure of the track and they only need to know about the other drivers near to them and the team strategy over the radio.
