what a blah race, however, it was good to see a sauber up there!

Really? I kinda liked it... there was rain to mix everything up (always nice)... some of the favorites had problems (Vettel & Button)... and a complete underdog came out of nowhere (and should've won the race - Perez). Figuring Alonso probably won't be much of a factor the rest of the year, the finish was okay with me.

I really like races where everything gets all f'ed up and weather wreaks havoc (although the red flag blew). I figure I've got a bigger chance of seeing this in F1 than NASCAR where its the same every week (although this week was the WORST race I've seen in years, maybe ever... good thing I watched it from a DVR pause at 60x speed).

I guess it's because I like the underdog and hate seeing the same people win every week (although I have my favorite drivers and if they won it'd be no problem... although it appears Massa's time at the Scuderia is about to come to an end). Also, I like freak shows. The U.S. GP in 2005 (?) when only 6 cars started the race? I was glued to the TV. Daytona 500 with a jet fuel explosion? Hooked. The 2011 F1 season when Vettel was walking away with every race? Yawn.

I guess i was just getting into the race, and then there was the rain delay, and i got impatient lol. I usually watch the races like 4-5 times anyway to get a feel for everything. Guess i missed the fun parts of the race lol, time to watch it again!!!

It's going to be bad every week for the Tifosi unless it rains. The car is trash.

And I hope Michael can get some luck in the race...

that was a hell of a race! and i'm excited for Bahrain as well, despite the political situation going on. hope everyone stays safe!

and i predicted a ROS pole and a BUT win for last race...pretty close.... Going for a RAI - BUT this time... i must be crazy lol

[Metal]

Well Vettel jumps back on top, and BOTH Lotus' on the podium as well! haven't had a chance to see the race, but congrats to Lotus and Congrats Kimi and Romain!
