    looks like it could be a more competitive season and the domination of ferrari and maclaren could be seriously challenged this year,looking at the top 5 of this mornings grid,you have 2 brawn gps 1st and 2nd,red bull,bmw sauber and williams in 3rd 4th and 5th,the 2 ferraris occupying 6th and 7th.starting grids like that have been unheard of in recent years.

    and with bbc having the rights there are no adverts !!!
    so lets hope its worth staying up for hehe.

    Backed Hamilton for the world yesterday at 13/1 McClaren have said it will be a race or two before they will have the car in good shape.

    He got 4th today after coming from the back of the grid.

    Brawn GP have a good chance looking at this mornings race, however it goes to show that no matter how good a driver you are, its all about the car. Most people thought Jenson Button has disappeared and there is today winning a GP.

    Who did you get the good odds with? 13/1 sounds tempting!

    They expect rain so I'd say it will be a very messy race.

    spot on mr weather man,barely got through half the race before the red flag,was exciting as the rain started to fall,but it turned into a monsoon lol,lightning struck the stadium three times,but button wins again even though it was only half points,dont think he would have been beaten had the race continued.
