A bad day in Hungary

gwaevalarinFirst and foremost: I'm still waiting for any real news on Massa. We do already know that he's conscious which is good news. But it is somehow anounced so cautiously that I rather find it even more worrying.
What a terrible coincidence that Rubens loses such a heavy part and it just happens to hit Massa at such high speed. Damn! That's the things you don't see coming.
The other thing I'm waiting for, regarding the sport, is the fuel loads because I still have this slight hope that things might not be as bad for Jenson as they seem. But if I'm honest I don't really believe that the fuel load will make the quali result look much better. Jenson already said in an interview that this wasn't the plan. Of course he has fuel for about 4 more laps now since they spend most of Q3 checking his car to make sure it was save. But I guess all their plans for the race are pretty much ruined. And unfortunately they weren't as quick as I had hoped for in the first place.
So if Ross Brawn doesn't come up with a truely brilliant plan I'm afraid Jenson's race will basically be over before it started. Then again, sometimes Jenson does some amazing things when you least expect him to. Just think about the very same track 3 years ago.
Hungary. The track I don't like but still the race I was hoping for, that kept me somewhat optimistic over the last few weeks.
Such a perfect start into the season. And now it looks like it's just suddenly falling apart. Like the Bad World is back. If things don't change again very soon I don't have much hope for the championship. Which is probably a rather odd thing to say about a driver who still leads by 21 points. Thing just is, it was 32 points just two races ago and we still have eight races to go. You do the math...
I'm not saying that it's over. But right now it's just not looking good.
Edit: Fuck! That doesn't sound too good:
"Following a complete medical examination it emerged that he had suffered a cut on his forehead, a bone damage of his skull and a brain concussion. These conditions need to be operated on after which he will remain under observation in intensive care."
I really hope everything goes well and he'll get better soon.
Edit2: "Felipe Massa has unergone surgery this afternoon at the AEK hospital in Budapest and the outcome of the procedure was positive. Now, Felipe will remain under observation in intensive care."
It also seems that they're confident that there will be no permanent damage. *is relieved*
Oh, and fuel loads make things look a tiny little bit better, too.
