Counting back to the lap before it was stopped. Lewis drops a place too.

Oh I see now, man how lucky is Heidfeld.

Great start to the season for Brawn and Toyota.

Button looks to be the man to beat for this season and Brawn to be the constructor that will dominate, but i reckon Toyota will have a strong season this year,

anything less than 1 race win for Toyota and the season will be deemed a failure

I agree, but 2 podiums in the first two races is nothing to sneeze at. I think Timo could've won this race...

Well that was interesting.

Praise to BBC1 for their coverage. I can only imagine the amount of advert breaks we'd have had to endure after they stopped the race had ITV still had coverage.

What you have to realise is...is that trying is the first step towards failure.

...so who is behind the Brawns and Toyotas in the championship now? Fernando Alonso! I don't quite know how he's managed that one in that crappy Renault.

What a huge dissapointment, all thanks to Bernie as I have already said. We were having a good race with plenty of passing and cars following closely before the rain came down. It then messed up Nico's and a lot of people's race as he was driving brilliantly and on course for a certain 2nd place!

Let's hope for a more sane race in Bahrain without any thunderstorm, darkness mayhem from Bernie pissing about with different race start times!

...China next isn't it? We've had a decent bit of rain there in recent years.

Today was a bit of an anticlimax in the end.
