So nice to see Rubens get a good result
WTF were Ferrari's strategists thinking??

When Ross Brawn (the Ferrari brain) left this was bound to happen. It will take time for Luca to become as good a strategist as Brawn but these mistakes all add to his learning process. As long as this is a one time blip then Ferrari fans don't have too much to worry about

outstanding drive by Lewis.

[przemo]

Wow, another hectic race. Well done Lewis - no mistakes now, impressive . He kicked Heikki's butt. Very good race for Heidfeld this time - some good passes there , but I'm mad at Kubica for his mistake . I didn't exactly see what happened, but I think he was trying a risky pass in the worst conditions and it didn't pan out. I was like ... Anyway, I think it was a very good decision for Rubens to go on full wets, it gave him a podium finish, and I think everyone was confused by the first Ferrari pit-stop, with them not changing the tyres . Oh, and well done for Massa "the Spinner" for taking the last place...

[Denthúl]

I think I agree, bud.

Heidfeld's drive was also brilliant and, once again, his big results seem to sneak up on everyone. I still can't get over the fact that Barrichello almost had a second-place finish. I'm going to be highly disappointed when we hit Hockenheim

Also, what happened to this guy (on the left)?

i must say i was very happy to see kimi stay on his first set of tyres, as for Massa i think surely something was not right with his car, you could see he was hardly putting any power down on a straight line and would still spin

I think it was just the Ferrari in general, because Raikkonen had his fair share of moments like that. Which is a shame, because we saw last year that both Raikkonen and Massa can have some great battles in the wet.

yeah possibly what ever it was, it affected Massa worse than Kimi,

Bet youre happy with the podium Denthul pitty Rubhino couldnt get 2nd, it seems his son has psychic abilities

[Denthúl]

Very much so. Having watched him lead the Canadian GP and get on to the podium here, I'm thinking that he's definitely going to be much more motivated towards the end of this season. If Honda build a race-winning car next year, I'm sure Rubens would take a few of them. I honestly think that, with a car that isn't so horrible to drive as the RA107, Rubens is driving better than Jenson is. Which makes me happy.

Also quite happy with Piquet's performance. Despite his retirement, he pulled a legitimate move on Alonso and made it as far up as fourth. I'm willing to bet that he'll do well in Germany, too.

Will Silverstone get a slap on the wrist for the amount of rabbits running around? After all, Istanbul Park were told off for dogs...

[bud]

i think Rubens will be loving the slicks next year, on another slightly off topic note which makes me surprised about DC retiring just before a big tech shakeup which no doubt will change the status quo quite abit, im starting to think DC was told he wont be getting a seat to make way for Vettel at RBR and Senna at STR.

yeah Selcouth Feline i wonder that was very dangerous and race ending.

[al4x]

good race
good by lewis, err, and rubens, very good

np had such a good chance today, so did alonso,
people making the tyre decsions, [driver or team] poor!!

Hamilton's start was brilliant, and did very well to limit himself to just one very small trip across the grass. Ferrari's tactical error ruined the race for victory though - Raikkonen seemed like the only guy who could have challenged at that point.

Chuffed to see Barrichello on the podium - if only he didn't have the fuel problem and if Jenson had stayed on the track, there could possibly have been 2 Honda's of the podium.

Felipe Massa is an absolute joke, last in the best car and it's completely his own fault.

ITV's commentary was frustrating again. James Allen annoys the hell out of me whenever Hamilton has a chance of winning.

All in all, a crazy race - i had to check the results after cause it was immensely tough to figure out who was where!

Ahh, but he was very Senna-esque in today's race

[Hanwombat]

Heikki should of won

Well Done Lewis, I suppose I should be happy considering you drive for me team

I am happy yes, as my Mclaren boys but a 1 - 5 but Heikki should of won and Lewis should got 5

Ferrari, well Massa was a joke today really and Kimi had plenty of ups and down also

Well done Nick, always the best man but never the groom

Poor David also, and I thought that Vettel would of had a chance

Real shame for Piquet, hes beginning to show us a bit more now of his potential

[scotty]

No way should Kovalainen have won today... he was so slow in the wet.

Haha, hopefully he'll never use that one again, although i doubt JA has the capacity to realise what a prick he makes of himself with those sorts of comparisons!
