I think the best part of the Canadian GP is.. The Synchronised Spinning..   

You mean they "Synchronised Drifting" by Rosberg and Trulli?
That was hillarious!! 

Nigel Mansell believes Lewis Hamilton has "rattled" McLaren team-mate Fernando Alonso.

World champion Alonso indicated there is friction between the pair on Tuesday when he implied Hamilton receives extra support from the team and admitted he has "never felt totally comfortable" at McLaren since the 22-year-old was confirmed as his team-mate for the 2007 season.

The Spaniard's remarks came in the aftermath of Hamilton's maiden Formula One victory in Montreal on Sunday which extended his lead ahead of Alonso in the standings to eight points.

And Mansell believes Hamilton's win in Canada represented a serious psychological blow to Alonso.

"I don't think anyone can compete with Lewis at the moment. Alonso drove from the start of the race as though he was rattled.

"His mistake on the first corner was very uncharacteristic and later in the race he broke the car.

"I wish Lewis all the luck in the world and so does all of England. It will be a remarkable achievement if he wins the championship this year.

"The only person he's got to beat is Alonso and he's already done that. What impresses me most is that he has Alonso rattled and that is remarkable."

Mansell does have reservations, however.

"Everything is going for him but motor racing is a fickle sport," he told sportasylum.com.

"He hasn't made a mistake yet. He's only human and he will make one - hopefully not this year.

"If he keeps his head then the percentages of him winning the world title are very much on his side.

"He has done marvellously so far and it has been brilliant for British motor racing. But I am not going to compare him with Ayrton Senna or Michael Schumacher. There's a long way to go before anyone can consider that."

"I am with an English team-mate, at an English team, which is brilliant. We know that all of the help goes his way. I've understood that from the first moment and I'm not complaining about it."

He meant that he's taking it as a challenge and not complaining

Former Grand Prix winner John Watson has slammed Fernando Alonso for claiming that McLaren do not treat him and Lewis Hamilton equally.

Watson believes that the World Champion, who joined the Woking-based team this season, has disappointed his team principal Ron Dennis with his comments.

He also argued that the Spaniard is struggling to cope at McLaren because he is no longer the golden boy.

"I think Alonso is missing being the centre of attention," Watson told The Sun newspaper.

"He has been the centre of attention at Renault and in Spain but obviously he's not anymore. He feels that because he's in a British team Lewis is getting favouritism. That's bollocks.

"The only thing that is happening is Lewis is generating so much excitement at the moment that Alonso doesn't know what is happening. It's not Lewis' fault he's doing well and Alonso isn't.

"He just has to stop, take a breath, move on and grow up .

"I think Ron Dennis will be disappointed. He'll want to talk to Fernando right away and find out what he meant by it. It's disruptive and negative and Alonso needs to explain it."

The former McLaren driver also said that Alonso has been taken aback by the hype around his team-mate and with results failing to go his way, the former Renault driver has begun to vent his frustration.

"If you look back to Monaco, perhaps Alonso expected the status quo to be formed when the team allowed him to win," explained Watson.

"He thought he'd established himself as the No 1. But there was only one name on everyone's lips in Monaco. It wasn't Penelope Cruz or Jude Law, everyone wanted a piece of Lewis.

"I think it's just emotion and frustration from Alonso. McLaren are one of the few teams who don't operate a No. 1 and No. 2 driver policy. Alonso started the season as the best Formula One driver in the world by a long margin. But McLaren will always give both drivers equal opportunity to win.

"Maybe he's struggled to adapt to the team. McLaren has a different outlook to Renault, it's not as emotional and is a different environment. He's also learning a new car and has different tyres. He's probably never raced on Bridgestones before, so it's all getting under his skin."

Former McLaren driver David Coulthard, meanwhile, rejected theories that Alonso is failing to cope with pressure.

Rather, the F1 veteran and Red Bull racer said the Spaniard is 'still making mistakes' as he adapts to the Bridgestone tyres.

"That's not easy," Coulthard wrote in his column for ITV. "They give you a totally different feel, a different balance. It's like a man learning to wear high heel shoes..."

BMW Sauber's Sebastian Vettel will make his Formula One race debut at this weekend's US Grand Prix after FIA medical staff advised Robert Kubica not to race following his high-speed crash in Canada.

Kubica suffered only concussion and a sprained ankle in the Montreal accident and told Thursday's press conference at Indianapolis that he was feeling 100 percent. However, athough the FIA doctors largely agreed, they felt it unwise for the Polish driver to risk the chance of a second concussion in such a short space of time.

The decision means Vettel gets a race call-up, while fellow German tester Timo Glock becomes BMW Sauber's reserve driver at Indy. Vettel, aged just 19, made several impressive third-driver outings with the team in Friday practice sessions last season and this season is competing in the World Series by Renault.

"Of course, I am looking forward to my first F1 race," he said, "but I wish it had come under different circumstances. It's never nice if a team mate can't drive because he had an accident. For me the Indianapolis Speedway is unknown territory, but I have prepared myself for this situation and tomorrow I have two 90 minute practice sessions. I know the car very well as I have quite a lot of testing miles under my belt."

Kubica is expected to return to the cockpit for the French Grand Prix on July 1, assuming he is given the all clear by medics ahead of the Magny-Cours race.

"Naturally I'm disappointed because I felt absolutely ready to race," he said. "But I respect the decision. It was made because there is too much risk to let me race in this Grand Prix in case I have had another impact so soon after Montreal. I will go home now. I wish Sebastian all the best. It is good for him and I am pretty sure he will do a good job."

BMW Motorsport Director Mario Theissen added: "We respect the decision of the medical personnel. The team was prepared for this situation. Sebastian will receive all possible support from us and we hope for another good race here."
