It's dangerous and totally unnecessary as he seems to be able to overtake anyone on the track. I agree the qualy move was a bit cheeky but there's only one guy who should have been disqualified from the race and he's german, has always been a cheat and looks pretty average these days. Maybe he always was...?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-26625676909131592172010-06-15T12:21:54.186-04:002010-06-15T12:21:54.186-04:00The race was great to see in person!

Tons of passing, exciting moments all of the time and for the first 20 laps it was really anyones race with only 10 seconds or so between the top 5 cars.<br /><br />The tire deal was crazy, it was reverse of what I thought was going to happen. I figured the hards were going to take off after the soft guys pitted and get a good gap while there hards were still not up to temp, but it never happed. Pretty much everyone who started on hards, had a poor race and lost positions and time in the middle sector of the race were they were on the softs for to long.<br /><br />Id have to say that the drive of the race goes to Button. Starting P4 and being a good .4 seconds off per lap compared to Lewis, I was surprised he was able to pull off P2 just a few seconds behind Lewis.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03884358534052232708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-32012141315363300072010-06-15T11:03:09.365-04:002010-06-15T11:03:09.365-04:00Thanks for pointing out the fact that Mclaren has ...Thanks for pointing out the fact that Mclaren has released Hamilton into the side of another car in the pits twice so far this season without penalty. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills here.

We don't know if he had enough in the tank to make it back or if he would have run dry. All we know that there was enough for the sample (1l), which is required by the rules. Maybe there was enough left to make it safely back, but as a precaution they decided to kill the engine. YOu do know that there are only fuel flow senosrs, no measurements can be taken in the tank itself. ;)<br /><br />3. IMHO it was at most 1kg of fuel he had less(if at all) than the others, except if your opinion is that the last straight eats up 2,5 kg of fuel.Bononoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-33638041565939925622010-06-15T05:02:24.710-04:002010-06-15T05:02:24.710-04:00Another footnote, Hamilton complained that with t...Another footnote, Hamilton complained that with the new points system, him being only up only three points after winning two races in a row is "ridiculous". With the old system he would have been only one point ahead of Button.<br /><br />Well, nobody said you have to be able to add to drive fast... :)AChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04209280332953683555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17940643.post-44380223341452356602010-06-15T04:57:02.875-04:002010-06-15T04:57:02.875-04:00Thats a great video review.

There is much I left out for space reasons I figured would be taken up in the comments: Schumacher, Force India's perfomance, Kubica. Petrov's retard start, Massa's wars... Even Bernie's hilarious contention that F1 is just too fast to be filmed in HD!

Passing, dicing, will they wont they tyre strategies, even a bit of good old fashioned rubbin's racin'.<br /><br />It's great to see 3 teams properly at the sharp end, with a few who aren't too far behind.<br /><br />F1 has me hooked again. Thanks Canada!<br /><br />Oh and old Michael - we know you're aggressive, but some of that driving could best be described as "dickish".Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13189420805616096929noreply@blogger.com
