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.
Ta Willie just put it on, flicked through earlier and never seen it. Too much corn has me going blind
hamilton stripped of australian points and suspensions could be pending. http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12433_5133456,00.html

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.
glad i didnt get up for this one turned on the tv at 11am and it was still on, they were all there sitting on the grid in the rain
what a mad race before the rain stopped it. glock putting on intermediates was genius. button did very well to hold on.
