   All makes sense to me...
   
   It's clear that there are no huge surprises waiting, considering neither the team or Fernando are being coy about it...yet at the same time no huge disappointment either. So where we are is pretty much expected, but a 'good' quali would have been a place or two better with the perfect lap and better tyre choice.
   
   These things happen, and there will always be victims to unstable conditions - we just happened to be one of those on this occasion, whereas in other place it was other teams.
   
   Lets see what happens today...as Fernando always says, the race is long.

   Did Nelson start this gramprix using a new engine?
   Or do he use the one from Spain?
   The last option coul be a good thin, as it has not gone for many miles. And therfor might could be "pushed" harder in this second and last gramprix.
   Or did they find it better to change it, because of Fernandos enginefailor?

3. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 12:28:58 by RF1 Paddock Pass

   Nelson's engine is on its second race - the same one he used in Spain. Fernando has a fresh engine.

4. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 12:31:34 by ZackGem

   Thank you RF1
   
   That sound like the good choice.
   Even that he could had changed it.

   Good luck!

   Hi all,
   
   have someone some link on ITV that I could watch outside of the UK? Thanks

   thanks, I have had this one but it works not for me anymore..
   for you it works?

9. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 13:11:48 by Blackmadonna

   @niki yes it does, just give it some time to load, and it will only start to show something shortly before the race.
   
   I was wondering about an article on AS today. Journalists...i don't want to give them too much credit, but they said that for Fernando's soft tyres in Q3, they forgot to change the angle of the front wing fitting to the tyres, and that this made Fernando loose some tenths in his flying lap.
   Actually i hope its true. It means Fer could still have been faster, maybe enough for starting from P5.

    RF1PP, sorry for doubling it, but I wanted to know if possible which countries do the RF1 trucks pass through on their journey from Enstone to Istanbul. It's close to my home country, I just wanted to know if the go anywhere near it.

13. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 13:18:13 by Blackmadonna

    @niki its already running here, the link cannot be the problem, i live in Germany and i can watch it.

14. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 13:21:30 by ThePowerOfOne

    Actually the link doesn't work for me anymore too, yesterday it was fine. Same result as Niki's. Grr...

    Hi The PowerOfOne, the trucks had a five day trek from Enstone to Istanbul. They drove all the way to Trieste in Italy to catch a ferry to Istanbul. It will be the reverse route on the way back with the trucks unlikely to arrive in Enstone until Friday next week. So a very short turn-around for Monaco.

    I'm just watching the pre-race show and they say it's not suppose to rain for the next 45 min. Is rain predicted in the forecast? If so, I think we may have an advantage to that!

    Hi marctu35. We want you to stay on the blog and share your thoughts with us all. If you can write in English it would be much appreciated - that way the whole community can interact with you.
    
    Thanks for your good luck messages - the team appreciates it. I hope that you enjoy the race and look forward to your feedback at the end of the race.

    Very quick pitstop by Fernando...@ lap 15

55. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:30:33 by marctu35

    I wait there is correct the strategy of 2 stops,

56. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:35:21 by f1angel

    Alonso currently in 9th and Piquet is in 15th

57. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:36:27 by loco

60. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:39:15 by adam20692

    and to be quite honest piquet's preformance to far is dissapointing lets hope he's is running a 1 stop strategy. GOOD LUCK RENAULT LETS KEEP THAT 5TH!!! lol

61. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:39:48 by adam20692

    haha just as i say that piquet sets a good lap lol

62. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:41:38 by f1angel

    That pass that Lewis did to Massa was a dirty move!

63. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:42:00 by Niki

    I'm sorry for Fisi but it seems that it was his mistake and for Heikki too..

64. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:42:07 by loco

    uf LH 1º Massa 2º
    Alonso 6º go Alonso!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

65. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:42:42 by Niki

    Fernando P6 - not bad.

66. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:43:21 by f1angel

    Bourdais is OUT!

67. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:44:22 by Niki

    It was really optimistic by Lewis, I wished it more to Felipe but I must say Lewis did it well

68. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:44:56 by adam20692

    i dont think there was anything wrong with hamiltons move

69. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:48:14 by loco

    Alonso !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! go !!!!!!!!!!! 6º go!!

70. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:48:18 by marctu35

    NELSINHO 10º!!!!
    GO NELSINHO!!!

71. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:48:45 by f1angel

    I'm sorry, but I just didn't like that move from Lewis! Massa did the right thing by moving away cause if he didn't, those 2 would've made contact with each other!

72. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:50:53 by loco

    Alonso a 38 second to LH

73. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:51:20 by adam20692

    hamilton had the inside line and was side by side if there had been an incident it probably would have been massa's fault to be quite honest i think he made a good move

74. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:51:44 by loco

    Lucky Nelson !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!go!!!!!!! Alonso go !!!!!!!!!!!!

75. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:56:44 by adam20692

    heikki had a good origional overtake shame about the finish but its bad he is past now come on piquet get past button

76. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:56:54 by f1angel

    What a battle between Heikki and Timo!

77. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:57:57 by adam20692

    YES COME ON PIQUET!! Nothing like proving us wrong lol

78. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:59:12 by adam20692

    Just a question did piquet start on soft or hard tires

79. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 14:59:47 by f1angel

    I believe he started on the hard tyres! Great move by Nelson!

80. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:01:16 by adam20692

    Great move but it meens he has to stop again

81. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:03:53 by adam20692

    well i think were gunna have to prepare for another ferrari 1-2

82. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:04:04 by amc

    really good race so far...
    
    Proud of Nelson and Fernando so far..

83. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:05:50 by adam20692

    well we should end up on equal points to toyota and 1 point behind red bull

84. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:05:58 by loco

96. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:33:36 by Diki

    WELL DONE RF1,ALONSO,NELSON

97. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:33:40 by loco

    Alonso 6º
    Nelsinho 15º
    

98. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:34:16 by Blackmadonna

    VERY WELL DONE Fernando for bringing this home!!! And we need Nelson to improve- they should help each other in the race!

99. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:34:20 by amc

    Good solid race by our boys. That's what we need, race in, race out to rack up the points and positions. A little regret that with the way Nelson drove today, you wonder how he would have been if he had qualified properly; but c'est la vie - maybe he drove the way he did today because of quali disappointment.
    
    Heidfeld did really well, and I was quite impressed by Lewis actually - but Fernando did as much as he could with the car. Only disappointment he might feel is that with Heidfeld starting 9th he might have thought 5th place would have been realistic.
    
    Good stuff though...roll on Monaco!

100. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:36:17 by bwells

     Well done Renault!!! P6 for Fernando... we will improve!!
     OK... off to work...lol... you guys have a great day...

101. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:37:01 by loco

     RENAULT HAVE TO WORK IN THE ENGINE AND AERODYNAMICS IN!

102. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:38:47 by loco

     ALONSO NAW SPEAK IN TV SPAIN!

103. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:39:58 by hah

     CONGRATULATION FERNANDO...you drove a solid race..at 1st stint, you were up there racing & having fun wth KIMI i guess...
     
     More stuffs like this and you RENAULT surely establish as 4th POWER on the grid..
     
     Nelson..for you, i think you need to learn more from Fernando while you have the chance..GOOD LUCK mate !!

104. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:40:54 by f1angel

     I don't think I've seen Felipe this happy in a while!

105. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:41:30 by amc

     well, it's a start, hah...being 4th best team when we were probably 6th or 7th a couple of races ago.
     
     Of course, it always helps having a driver like Fernando at the wheel to confirm that.

106. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:42:46 by hah

     RENAULT clearly 4th POWER on the grid with FERNANDO driving R28...wait for SUPRISE at MONACO soon...

107. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:43:04 by alonsogirl76

     Great job Fernando and the team. Nelson did ok too. I am proud today.

108. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:46:10 by hah

     amc..
     
     Yeah, i'm very happy to see Fernando drove a solid race today...1st stint was very interesting to watch the sector time when he was behind KIMI...FERNANDO really pushing the car to its absolute limit..Great Drive

109. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:52:35 by loco

     Alonso speak : this happy with the race today, Mónaco speak and want to improve more!!!!!!
     Alonso good work!
     Nelsinho lucky for Mónaco !ánimo Nelsinho!

110. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 15:58:39 by em7

     Solid. Good job guys. Both cars made it to the finish. Some nice moves from Nelson. 3 points from Fernando.
     
     
     We're getting there. Keep it up team! Bravo!

111. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 16:00:18 by em7

     @ loco, thank you! because I have to wait for the telecinco interviews to be put on the internet.

112. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 16:02:22 by loco

     Alonso Spain is with you !Never Walk Alone!!!
     Nelsinho you get lucky at the next race!.
     One question : What has happened today Nelsinho?
     
     

113. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 16:03:35 by IceF1Mkd

     Good job, it's clear that the Alonso/Renault combination is the 4th best force on track. We've consolidated. Now are appetites are raising...
     
     @hah, since we're a little bit down on traction, you can't expect too much in Monaco.
     
     Apart form that fact... concerning the rest of the factors, I think we'll be fine.
     
     
     

114. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 16:03:38 by loco

     @111 em7:Thak you!

115. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 16:15:44 by Lengskee

     Solid race for Alonso today. I guess we can safely say that we are now 4th behind the 3 front row teams. It was great start for FA from 7th to 5th. Kimi was just too quick , yet Alonso was able to secure the 6th place behind the 2 BMW drivers.
     
     Nelson again had a very difficult race but it was nice to see him overtake Button. Obviously.he is still learning but I really wish he could end the race in the Top 10.
     
     RF1, will there be new improvements in the car for the coming Monaco GP? It seems that we are heading in the right direction in terms of the car's performance compared to the first 3 races. Slowly but surely we are getting there.
     
     Good Luck on the next races.

116. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 16:18:25 by Blackmadonna

     Don't expect too much of Monaco. Traction is important here, and more traction for the R28 might still mean less speed..otherwise, i would see a podium possible for Fer, he drove a fantastic race there last year.
     

117. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 16:19:09 by hah

     @IceF1Mkd...
     
     We will see what will be at Monaco..
     
     Maybe R28 lacking traction, i'm very sure the team will be working hard to prepare for this track...because this track should be one of possible track they are able to make a different...
     
     Anyway..still without TC...we can expect more mistake from drivers...like LH, last year he was lucky getting away without broken car with his agressive drive thru curb & walls..
     
     This year i believe only true driver will survive at Monaco and FERNANDO will be one of the driver possible for PODIUM..
     
     Maybe i'm a little OPTIMISTIC but its because i belive FERNANDO have th skill to make a different with IMPROVED R28 and 110% backing effort by RENAULT TEAMS..
     
     GO RENAULT & FERNANDO & NELSON

118. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 16:21:03 by marsiandeneersten

     Nice one today. Nice race to see - ex. Nelsons passing manouvre - a good race for Fernando and good strategy. I'm looking forward to Monaco.
     Go Renault Go

119. Sunday 11 May 2008 at 16:26:37 by theBlueOrangeLion

     Points, aye? Not bad. And Nelson made it to the finish. It looks like we're back to last year's situation: Ferrari / Macca / BMW / Renault.
     
     And Massa didn't spin, nasty, nasty. At least Kova provided some entertainment.
     
     Monaco - my favourite, thank God, finally. And if it rains - umm, yummy!

     Sadly but I have to say that it is time to say goodbye to further development of R28 and focus on 2009 car. The sooner the better. Renault isn't in F1 to pick points but to fight for championship.

     mate..it too early to say & even suggest that...i cant agree
     
     RENAULT will be there to improve & fight with R28..

     He-he, Manchild, Fern has a different opinion.

     Besides, the prize money are quite important (constructors' champ), I don't think we should throw in the towel.

     I hear Honda are running a version of KERS on their cars, that sounds like a good idea for us. Dunno, maybe RF1 knows better?

     To support manchild a bit, I am too a bit scared that Renault must not miss the starting point for develeping the 2009 car. It's LOTS of changes, you know. Simple evolution won't do the job this time. And that CFD center, it probably takes time to make it function properly and only then one can start benefitting from it. Not to mention perfecting all the procedures.
     About KERS... yeap, I read 'bout Honda putting such a device to the test too, BOL. I doubt that everybody will be using such a system. Some because of its development cost, others will find it's just to small of an advantage to prove its worth. According to Briatore developing it will costa som extra 20 million (not sure of the currency, Euro I thin)
     Hope I don't sound like an i-know-it-all punk, just thoughts, just thoughts...

     Or is KERS obligatory?

     Improving R28 instead of working only on R29 is like watering dead tree instead of planting a new one. New package Alonso mentions is probably already finished. So, the engineers have done what they could for R28, let the team use what it has and let engineers work on 2009 car.

     We'll see, remember "pundits" were saying in Melbourne we're slower than STR, where are those pundits now?

     manchild; with all due respect I don't think its as simple as saying they have done all they could for the R28. Practically speaking that is never the case - anything can be developed, and even though it's bounded by lots of rules, the possibilities are endless.
     
     Also, in any engineering establishment, you will find that teams are created to cater for engineering projects for both current enhancements and new development. That would mean they have allocated engineers for the 2009 spec, and separate engineers dedicating their work on the R28 - and it is a waste of resources if they allocate ALL their engineers into future development.
     
     They can learn alot from developing the R28 further...as it is never an absolutely clean sheet for a new season's development.

     The F1 world is not as easy as you can imagine...i hope you are able to see the big picture...as RF1 fan, honestly i feel insulted by your comment/suggestion
