Any info on the rest of the results, and the race?
I can't reach the chat room, and www.formula1.com's live timing doesn't work on this computer. |

You have to say... if it werent for the safety car SCHU would have taken it by more than 20 secs.. once again some fantastic strategy by the Ferrari strategists

Another strategy game by the Ferrari team. Can't take it away from them. Mickey had pace even with a third more fuel and worn tyres! Definitely driver of the race.
Kimi's Macaroon was working very well but the Ferrari package is obviously the most efficient out there. Button couldn't live with RB. Its either outright power or aerodynamics. |

Wonderful results!
Not just because of a Ferrari win...but because we have a Mclaren back on the podium... Kimi fully deserves this wonderful result after the hell he had in the first half. mclaren finally seem to put their car right, and matched expectations Satisfying result overall. |

A huge step forward for Raikkonen and McLaren nonetheless, even if they cannot match the speed of Schumacher & Ferrari. Also very pleased to see Webber in the points again.

While I don't think it was a great race, I also don't think it was as horribly dull as some of you would suggest. Sure Michael won again and thats dissapointing but they are fully deserving of their results. Kimi gave it a strong fight, and for this Mac fan it's heartening to see them back. Bad timing for Kimi to get stuck behind Sato, too bad he couldn't have thrown it off as he did earlier.
Sato may be quick and aggressive but he consistently screws it up. BAR also seem to have stalled in regards to their development. Button never looked to be a threat. Williams as well seem to be suffering, but with all the personnel changes I imagine that is affecting their performance. Gene really has been underwhelming in his two race drives. Nice race for Webber and Jag; sure wish Ford would enable them to develop that car at least a little. Glad to see Trulli come out unscathed. All in all a good race, not great but good. I noticed that there is another thread with a lot of moaning and groaning. Maybe this thread can be about the good quality's of the race and the other can be for the dissapointed fans. |

Too bad McLaren, Williams, Renault, BAR and Sauber cannot be as consistent as Ferrari. It almost seems as if they take turns to be competitive.
