I've decided to stop my bløgg due to the uncertain future of this forum. The reason I started writing these was to share my passion for Formula 1 and I hope I have sparked an interest in the sport in at least one person. If that has happened, I have fulfilled my mission.

If you want to follow the sport (apart for the TV broadcast specifics for each country (say hello, [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernie_Ecclestone"]Bernie Ecclestone[/URL]!)) you can read news, features,...

Jenson Button drove superbly and made a very important overtake in the first corner. He totally deserved the win. Vettel was held up by Trulli who was on the medium tyre compound in the middle stint. Both of them drove well, but couldn't match Button and the strategy of Brawn.

Hamilton was mind blowing off the line, he overtook so many cars. I think the McLaren KERS is the best in F1. Barrichello should have been on the podium.

Räikkönen must feel some satisfaction....

Excellent work by Vettel and Webber, Red Bull's first win and it's a 1-2 on top of that. Red Bull destroyed Brawn today, Button beat Barrichello who had balance issues and was not fast. They ended up 45 and 63 seconds respectively after Vettel.

Kovalainen beat Hamilton, both drove well, but Hamilton had an eventful race with many spins and off-track excursions.

Glock too was in the wars and he collided with Kubica in a race incident that spun Kubica around.

Q1:
Kubica is the big player here and he starts in P18. BMW are always very late out in qualifying and maybe this time it bit them. Piquet is a bad qualifier, he may lose his drive soon. Alonso have beat him 21-0. Bourdais made a mistake and the Force Indias lack downforce.

Knocked out thus far:
P16 Bourdais - Toro Rosso
P17 Piquet - Renault
P18 Kubica - BMW
P19 Sutil - Force India
P20 Fisichella - Force India

Q2:
What...

The race was exhilarating for as long as it lasted. The start was very interesting, Button and Trulli were overtaken by a storming Rosberg and Alonso came charging up from P9. However, Alonso's car is not the best and he turned into a mobile chicane for Barrichello and a lot of other people. Rosberg led at the start from Trulli and Button.

Kovalainen once again retired on the first lap and Robert Kubica's engine sounded sick and he retired too.

The Red Bulls were great...
