What happens to Enge?
On these three last races Tomas Enge went off the track many times and had also many spins, but he ever finished the races in points zone(the only positive item). In Magny-Cours he was sorpassed by Wilson but was forced to going out of the track and return, finishing 3rd. On Silverstone he had a battle with Wilson, first Wilson must going out when he tried to pass Enge, and later Enge went off of the track and lost the lead in hands of Bourdais; and on the last lap his engine stalled but finished 5th. And now (Hockenheim) first he made a spin and lost his 3rd place moving to 6th, he recovers and on the last lap in his two tryings to pass Ricardo Sperafico (who defended his 3rd place as his life and he WANTS to be in the podium), Enge went off of the track and on the last lap he lost his 4th position and finished 5th.

It just sounds to me like Enge is a very determined driver who really wants to finish in the highest position possible. It makes a nice change to see a current driver who is not content with sitting in a precession behind a driver and car which he knows is slower than him! It definitely makes better television viewing!

that battle on sunday was a cracker. as rumple said, it's great to see a couple of drivers who want to race, and damn well want that podium like it's the most important thing they'll ever do.
perhaps there should be some kind of rule that they should always start next to each other on the grid or something.... tomas is obviously trying very hard to get that championship. |
