Now that the reply has aired...

Great day for Ferrari. Kimi leading the championship, Ferrari right there in the constructors.
Hamiltons shunt was great, still trying to figure that one out... <shakes head>
DC, again. I don't know why he still bothers?
More points for Trulli.

Now a three week break til Spain.

Great weekend for BMW. Been a Kubica fan since he debuted in 2006 and thankfully the BMWs are picking up the pace.

I have to say tho... GO FERRARI!!!

I think it's a bit early to count Hamilton out or seriously question his skills. He has had a charmed life in F1 so far..it was only a mtter of time before he had a crap weekend. He'll bounce back.

grats to Ferrari, Kimi climbs to the top of points

It feels weird to not have Alonso in the hunt.

Interesting weekend. Gotta love how much more interesting things are getting w/out TC on the cars. BMW leading the constructor's ... who'da thunk it? So far it's stacking up to be a great season.

This just shows where a driver places is very dependant on how competetive the car from the manufacturer is. They've been saying Alonso has been driving the wheels off the car but the Renault just can't keep up with the Ferraris, McLarens and the BMWs. I'm actually glad the FIA is doing more to equalize things and restrict the cars. Next year there's going to be more aero restrictions, which should equalize things further. Then we'll really get to see who is the better driver

^50% less downforce next year, and all the cars will have Kinetic Energy Recovery Systems on them. Next year should be very different in many ways, but the more things change the more they stay the same.
Renault will still be off the pace next year. I do agree with RichC though, it is strange in a way.

my man did it again, congrats to Kubica, too bad he had that wheel spin right of the line maybe it would be a different race. I think the pit-stops would determine who would win the race. But it is what it is, 3rd is a great result as well. I think he will win his first race this year, his time is comming.

I'm so mad right now... I DVR all the Friday practices since I'm at work and not home to watch them. So today I get home from work and I turn on the TV right of way only to realize my F-ing DVR didn't record them! WTF!!! Lately I've been setting it under manuel recording because if you go by the guide it tends to cut off the last 10min or so. Yeah so what did jackass me do, I set it for 8pm instead of AM, *shakes head* I'm such an a$$hole...

Either way Kimi leads both Friday sessions, so I can't complain to much.

I'm double checking my alarm for tomorrow morning.
