The grid in Sepang is up side down! I asked Stephen Hawkings what he thought about an all Renault front row and he said the universe no longer makes sense to him!

Congrats to Fernand and Jarno. I am truly happy for you.

:-? Weird or what!! Just what the organizers wanted; looking forward to the race; will reserve judgement til then. :-o

Congrats to Kimi on his maiden victory :-W
Kimi is also my DOD although MS did a fantastic carve through the field after all his problems. Fernando deserves credit for keeping it on the podium.
So two different winners in the first two races - That hasn´t happenned in a loooooong time. Did you hear David´s comments after losing his engine and retiring? He doesn´t mince words!! :-]

:-( Bit disappointed with MS today - great drive to finish where he did, but ´though I hate to do it - MS = Twit of the race!!

Still not sure about the new qualifying rules, and the overnight ´lock-up" I think it takes away the setting-up skills from the driver that used to be an essential part of either winning or losing. Also I really miss the buzz I used to get towards the end of qualifying, "will he or won´t he come out at the last minute and snatch poll."

I do see that, for the general viewing public (not the obsessed like me) the new rules make for a more unpredictable race.

Now, having been so intelligently reasonable - "Shit!!! Michael LOST111 :-Y

Actually, most of those F1 jockies are little guys to be able to fit in the cars and keep the weight down Besides, isn´t it usually the insanely richly-backed guys that make it to F1? :-|

Actually no, not always, Justin Wilson earned his drive from F 3000 and is well over six feet tall! (If David Coulthard heard remarks like that, he would have a fit). Firman is by no means "insanely richly-backed" - he too earned his stripes through the Brit system as did many of the drivers today, including Kimi who was spotted by Ron Dennis as being the best driver to take Mika´s place in the team - how right he was. F1 is the one all race-drivers aspire to - Montoya, Zinardi, DeMatta (can´t spell, sorry) have all joined F1, however without much success, as yet. IMHO F1 drivers are the "big boys" of racing!

Of course, the more "lowly" teams have to rely on their drivers bringing huge sponsorship with them, which is one of the reasons why the powers-that-be have made so many rule changes to prevent such teams being at a total disadvantage: so far this strategy appears to be having the desired result.

I do appreciate that the US, on the whole, has little interest in F1, but judging from the huge attendance at the US Grand Prix over the past two seasons, a large number are very interested indeed.
