This is going to be one of the best years in F1 in a long time. Great race today for Ferrari, but more importantly, a great finish for BMW. I think they are on the brink of thier first win. First time they have lead the constructors, and seem to have a very reliable car. The points after 3 races are sooooo close. Can't wait for the Euro stint. The best is yet to come! Go get em Robert!

Yeah definitely,
During qualifying i was slightly disappointed to see that massa didn't get pole, but i was overjoyed to see that kubica got it.

It was quite a strange feeling.

The race was spectacular, (as long as you aren't a lewis fan) and i think that passing is a lot easier this year. It's going to be great.

British journalists are such idiots. They kept saying "Alonso brake checked Hamilton" when CLEARLY that's not what happened. Hamilton got a run, and was too excited to realise that Alonso wasn't just going to pull out of his way. When Alonso held the middle of the track out of T2, Hamilton ploughed straight into the back of him. Thats becoming a classic Hamilton mistake, making a bad situation worse by getting over excited. If he's not lucky he'll end up throwing a 2nd championship away because of it unless he can cure that little habbit.

Other than that, it was indeed a great race. Weber in particular was fantastic I thought, that Red Bull clearly isn't where it's suposed to be but he rung its neck and got the absolute best out of it, and unlike some others, didn't try to get more than it was capable of, and ended up with another solid points scoring position.

And how rubbish is Piquet? :P

Yeah scott, I thought the same thing, only i watch the race on SPEED where the announcers are more sensible.

It was pretty clear what happened. You could hear the engine notes of both cars clearly too.

I thought the same about piquet. Drivers in F1 are the best in the world and surely renault thought it over before accepting him? they must see something in him that we don't.

EDIT: thinking about vettel too.. he's a fantastic driver, but this season has been horrible for him. Thoughts on that?

yea looks like more people are going to have a chance in the spotlight this year, other than Ferrari and Mclarin

I think Ferrari had plenty in hand tbh. BMW aren't there yet, and no other team has even the slightest chance, but it is nice to see more than two teams involved in the podium fight.

Vettel is my favorite driver, simply because I value his talents higher than any other driver on the grid, he's the real deal IMO. Its really hard watching him have such a shocker of a season though, I hope it turns around soon, but I'm certain he'll end up in a better team before too long.

"they must see something in him that we don't"

Yeah mate... pound signs.

Tis the sad truth Jon. Well said.

Yea great race.

When Hamilton is at the back, he s such a wa**er... : drives crappy, makes mistakes, blames other guys for not moving away when fighting for possition... Too much was handed to him when he entered F1, should start in some crappy car like most of them do.

I agree Janko, Hamilton's true racing ability comes out when he is actually put behind other cars. I'm not a fan of lewis, but I have to say that its impressive that at least he didn't play the blame game today. He blamed himself for his issues and then shut his mouth.

Have to give him that.
