All the teams are a lot closer this year than almost ever before and it has made for a truly exciting season so far, 7 different winners in 9 races. 20 or so years ago you were lucky to see more than six cars finish a GP, now its rare for six to fail and the racing is closer than ever. The first four or five laps today were edge of the seat stuff, it settled down a bit in the middle but was still exciting racing.

Good day on the box for motorsport. GP boys were at it big time ,poor old stoner threw it into the kitty litter on the last lap:eek: That pleased some of the other title contenders. That Button is a good lad signing all the autographs at the end of what was a shit day for them.

Got our portable dish here ready to set up for the race live via RTL as Beeb only showing highlights later. Missed qualy sessions and don't even know much of the placings other than Alonso on pole and Vettel second? Looking forward to it though, should be a good race.

That was a decent race. looks like ferrari`s earlier pace was for real and not just a freak couple of wins. They might be the team to beat unless the others get their fingers out.weird how the merc can put in a fastest lap but just cant keep it going. Looked on F1 website and Norbert whatever his name said merc need to do catch up because they were half a second a lap down on the leaders. Half a kin second, less than a blink of an eye and it means they were 25 seconds away from the leaders which seems like a country mile.

Thats it for a few weeks but that was a good race. Lewis and car as one and on top form. lotus on top of their game after a long time out of the sport, kimi doing the biz and that young french lad showing a lot of promise. Cant wait for the second half of the season to get under way.

Bob.

no one here impressed with the race today then??????//

Could not believe the Coulthard & the other idiot were leaning to wards blaming Lewis for the accident, (bring back Murray !!!) pretty obvious to anyone watching it was Grosjean who was at fault. Great come back for Jenson, hopefully the McLaren boys have finally got the car sorted with the new upgrades.

Cheers

Another exciting race and a brilliant drive from Jenson, he seems to have better focus now perhaps. The accident at the start was totally down to Grosjean and it was pure luck that Alonso didn't get serious head injuries from it. As for the commentators well all I can say is when that accident first occurred it was not obvious what had happened. Until we got the replays it did look like Lewis had cocked up but it very quickly became clear that he was just an innocent party that got tangled up with someone else's accident.

Nearest thing the spaniard has had to a haircut this year:eek: . FMB that was all a bit close. Yet again no one hurt, how good is that!!:cool: Jensons on a mission, good luck :)
