He said: "McLaren was simply much faster than us and we did the best we could under the circumstances. Honestly, Lewis was in another league. He was driving perfectly, fast, consistent and we couldn't even think of attacking him 'We can't fight for the title in Brazil if our car isn't competitive' - Stefano Domenicali .

A Modena court has confirmed that sabotage against Ferrari did take place prior to last year's Monaco Grand Prix. The development is the latest in the protracted scandal of 2007, involving accused saboteur and spy Nigel Stepney. British engineer Stepney, who was sacked by Ferrari, was named by the Modena magistrate as most likely to have instigated the sabotage, which involved placing white powder in the fuel tanks of the Monaco-bound F2007 cars.

"I'm very optimistic, for sure, and we need to be, everybody in the team." He believes he will get a boost from racing on home ground in the decider. "Always when you play at home you usually play better," said Massa, who won at Interlagos in 2006 and would have done so again last year had he not had to fall in behind his title-chasing team-mate Kimi Raikkonen.

Yet the California looks good as a coupй, too, with just the few joins in the upper metalwork to give the dual-purpose game away. It's truly two cars in one, and a rousing drive in either guise. There were those who didn't believe this would be the case, the same purists who thought the California ugly when the first pictures were released and feared it was a feminised Ferrari with the sharp edges and the perceived need for skill removed.

"You can imagine a gentleman has bought a new Ferrari at $507,000. If he was to sell that car to me today, I would be paying probably $370,000 to $380,000 for that car if it's 12 months old, only because... who am I going to sell them to? That's the problem.

New York is more straight forward, though they do bring a rusher off the slot occasionally and do some zone blitzes. But mainly they like to get it done with their defensive front. Although they started a little slow on defense, the Giants really came on in the second half. What impresses me about the Giants is what a tough team mentally they are. They are battle-tested and everything you would expect from the top team in the NFC East.

England had the XKE. Germany, the 911 and the 230 SL. In Italy, Ferrari introduced the stunning 275 GTB, and here in the States, we had Cobras and big-block Vettes. But back in 1965, there wasn't much automotive excitement coming out of the Land of the Rising Sun. Then someone at Toyota had an epiphany: If we want the world to know that we can make great sports cars, let's build one for the Tokyo Motor Show that'll knock their socks off. That car was the 2000GT, and socks went flying.

One final qualification: We fudged a little. This isn't precisely a top ten list of the most expensive cars. That would basically be a bunch of Bentleys and Rolls-Royces and only a few other makes. So instead we picked the highest-dollar cars of each of ten carmakers, so no manufacturer got two slots. After all, even if you could afford a garage full of Rolls, you'd probably like to have a Ferrari or Lamborghini, too.

Hamilton's display suggested as much, but the argument to the contrary was the pathetic performance of Heikki Kovalainen in the sister McLaren. Was Hamilton very good or was Heikki very bad? The truth is probably - as it generally is - somewhere in the middle. The McLaren is not necessarily a faster car than the Ferrari but Hamilton was at the peak of his powers this weekend and out-drove every one of his competitors in a piece of machinery flattered by the circuit's characteristics.

We've done this for the future because facilities like this mean we can get a bigger piece of the pie. The latest addition to the Ferrari range is a $450,000 convertible called the California, which had its debut at the Sydney motor show earlier this month. It's just one of about 50 Ferraris -- including many rare classics -- generously displayed over three levels, but the brand expects it to attract a new sort of buyer.

Kovalainen. Usual role. The only problem for Lewis is the fact that throughout the season most of those cars have been slower than him all season and it is unlikely that Hamilton will have to struggle to overtake them. Leaving him alone against a grid of cars that aren't his best friends at the moment. However, I think the chances of Hamilton and Massa slipping up are very, very slim. Although Hamilton is on his second engine, the McLaren has an excellent reliability record.

In the post-WW II period, the US has experienced dramatic increases in the growth of money and credit. One way to demonstrate the erosion of the purchasing power of money is to look at the change in the behavior of the prices of used Ferraris. In the 1950s, 1960s, and even the 1970s, Ferraris depreciated rapidly. Well-to-do playboys attracted by the unique cars wanted the latest model, and few other people wanted the maintenance expense associated with the high performance machines.
