Congrats to Button, Barrichello and the Brawn team - that was pretty amazing.

I'm SO annoyed. Three laps from the end! THREE! If Kubica had just WAITED for the next corner, where he would have had better track position, both he and Vettel would have been on the podium. ARGH. Where did he think Vettel would be??
I'm aware I sound a little over-the-top, but I was just looking forward to seeing SV on the podium again

*fumes*

I'm gonna be in a bad mood for the rest of the day, lol.

EDIT - oh, and great job from Buemi

Chuffed that Jarno Trulli got on the podium i thought Hamilton (who put in a great drive himself!) had him with the KERS.... Trulli proving his defensive driving brilliance again. Kubica was impressive too, despite the incident at the end.

What happened to Rosberg? If it was tyres, they dropped off a hell of a lot.... And Massa? I noticed Raikkonen ended up retiring as well, but no explaination was given.

I want to know how Nakajima crashed, it didnt look like he did anything wrong. Terrible luck got the best of Webber...again.

It was when he took the kerb. I think it just gave him some pretty poor traction, the wheels span and then he hit the wall. Interesting that, when you listen to the sound in the clip, it sounded as if he was still on the throttle as he was heading towards the wall.

Here's a thought - JB was on about the car bottoming out in the SC period, surely that won't have worn the plank down too much will it?

I don't think so, it would be a shame if it had. But that is an issue that needs to be addressed quickly - these twilight races WILL cause problems like this.

Stewards are looking into if Hamilton should be 3rd, by the sounds of things he well be upgraded to 3rd

[big ron]

Did Whitmarsh just confirm that the FIA are investigating Trulli's pass under the safety car?

Where did you hear this?

Also, absolute LOL at Fisichella in the pits

EDIT: Trulli passing under yellows doesn't make sense, Hamilton was behind him

yep, it looked like the race control and tv directror were a bit lost during the race. 1st safety car came out in wrong position.

Rosberg had problem with tyres, and i think he had a touch with someone at the end, they didn't replay it on star sports.

Raikkonen spinned or lost control. Was only showed in one replay after it had already happened, but you could see him coming into additional pit stop just after (I think it was) Button was coming out of last pit stop. Kimi ended last after that. Funnily again the star sports commentators didnt notice or explain that at all.

The whole situation is entirely dependent on whether Trulli went completely off and Lewis went through, or if Trulli went wide and Lewis passed him, I think. I do think that Lewis may end up with the 3rd place, though.

Trulli went of under the yellow hamilton went past him, that was fair move but then trulli took him back witch is illegal.

They just had mclaren man on BBC red button part and he said that its being investigated

Yeah, saw the spin, that was replayed after he'd been in to change his front wing... Then i saw a brief shot of him in the garage at the end!! Poor form from the directors.
