F1- The Ferrari Obsession

What happened last week at the Belgian Grand Prix goes to show the obsession F1 org has with making Ferrari the winner. No doubt its a great organization which makes some of the best cars the world has seen or will see, but what Hamilton did in Belgium was bring excitement back to a sport which was otherwise becoming more a " Pole Position" game.
Even as a rookie he impressed last year and put up a brave fight but for his failure to hold his nerves towards the end. Some may call him brash in his driving but i believe this is what makes racing what it is. Its about how man can challenge the machine he has created and pushes the limits.
I donot have a bias for any drivers for any car makers but i do feel that at this point of time in the present lot i dont see a better entertainer on the tracks besides Lewis Hamilton. He brings an element of unpredictability which makes any sport exciting. I hope that this interference is minimized in future and "May the Best Man Win".
