Lewis, Kimi and Massa are supposed to be the best drivers in the grid (going from the drivers standings), yet all made made erros during the race. Now even after all that, they still finished pretty good (except Kimi in the end). This just goes to show how much their cars saved the day.

What does everyone think would have happened if Kubica and Webber drove a Ferrari or Mclaren after driving a faultless race like they just did?

In this era of f1 it is all about the cars, i think there should be just one race a year with equal cars like A1 an GP2 just to see whos really on top. Hopefully next year it will be alot more even with all the new rules coming in.

Both of Kimi's impacts happened at the end of a heavy braking phase, so there wasn't much speed left in the car, meaning the impact was only enough to damage the front wing and not any part of the suspension. Lewis only clipped the barrier, puncturing his tyre. Massa managed to stop before anything bad happened to his car. Had he locked his brakes, it probably would have been a different story.

If Kubica, Webber, Sutil, Barrichello and Vettel were driving Ferraris and McLarens yesterday, then each would have been capable of winning that race. Though, with Barrichello, that's already proven.
