We'll have to get Went in here, he'll go nuts talking about it.

I love how the underdog new team won in there first outing. I have to give massive props to Brawn.

Actually the results might change due to penalties, Trulli got penalized.

That was one of the most interesting races I have watched in a while.

To begin with, I didn't expect less from Ross Brawn. After all, when he worked for a team (Benetton, Ferrari), that one ended up getting Constructors' Championships (8, from what I know, between all the ones he worked for). And since he has been working for it during all the last year, Brawn 1-2 didn't surprise me the least. They say they can do better if they want. I want to see it.

Toyota- another big surprise. The diffusors? Who knows. But Glock and Trulli started from the pits and ended up 3rd and 5th (before Trulli's penalty... well). Trulli screwed up overtaking back Hamilton when he legitimately lost his postition because of his own mistake, but Hamilton also helped him braking down when he saw him coming back. Still, not something undeserved.

Vettel and Kubica. I'm expecting a lot from these two guys, even if their teammates are lost in the nothingness. The reason of the accident between both was more Vettel's crappy tyres than his driving, and I think his penalization for next week is undeserved. But they'll do a good season, I'm sure.

The Kers. What the heck is it? Alonso didn't help Glock overtaking him. The Ferraris... well. Worst start EVER. Kovalainen... what a disaster. Heidfeld, tried to get into the top 10 while his teammate, without it, fought for the win. And when everybody has it, it won't make any difference. So seriously, what a disappointment.

I seriously hope Renault, McLaren and Ferrari can install their improvements soon (specially the diffusors), so we see a funnier season.

The tyres, horrible system. Hard ones, and then ultra-soft? That makes no sense. Look at the poor people who had to wer them for longer than 15 laps. Massa and Rosberg. Ugh. They had no tyres in the end.

And three people: Hamilton, most amazing drive from him ever. Barrichello, crashing against three people and he managed to finis second. Stunning. And Virgin's owner, probably most lucky sponsor ever XD
