Melbourne 2009: Double diffusers, Cideralla GP's 1-2, Vettel and Kubica's wreck (Vettel got a penalty for apologizing over the radio to his team, haven't heard anyone do that since...)... and of course Hamilton and Trulli behind the safety car--almost forgot about that!
Malaysia 2009: Monsoon, dusk, half points and Jenson Button made Nick Heidfeld laugh during the post race interview: "We are going around at running pace, that slow. The safety car was pulling away from us. All I had to do was drive around and stay on the circuit. But how slow it looks. It is embarrassing..."
Korea 2010: Webber crashes, Vettel's engine dies handing victory to Alonso--thanks to an off by Hamilton
Korea was a great microcosm of the whole season. The track was brand new and unfamiliar track just like the regulations. The event was in doubt for a while as was F1 for 2010. Webber came in as championship leader and crashed. In 2010 the championship leader never won a race! Also Webber's 2010 will be always be remembered for his crashes (with Vettel in Turkey and with Kovalainen in Valencia). Vettel suffered unreliability, Hamilton was impressive, but F'd up (ran wide surrendering second at the time to Alonso) and Alonso was handed a victory...
