Good race, good result. :y

Missed It! :( :(
-
very good, nice to see Button back on top :y
-
Sorry, I was washing my hair, so missed it. Was it a good race, or yet another pointless one with only artificial overtakes?
-
It was ok, rain affected so mixed things up a bit.
I seem to remember saying that mclaren would take a 1,2. Which they would have if Lewis hadn't been stitched with a drive through.
Vetal fell apart under pressure again. :y

Another exceptionally good race spiced up by the weather again. As soon as I saw the weather at the beginning of the race I had a feeling that Button would more than likely win it as he revels in such conditions. He might not have Lewis's aggression but the guy is cool as a cucumber. 8-) Lewis was a little unlucky but these kind of track conditions just don't suit his aggressive style, but I think the drive through was a bit harsh. :-/ Well done Paul Di Resta for bringing the Force India car home in 7th too!! I think he might be offered a seat in a top team in the not too distant future.

I think that this race demonstrated yet again why the Mclaren team should be praised by motorsports fans the world over. Despite the fact that Hamilton whacked into his team mate in Canada, the team still allow the drivers to race each other.
They were banging wheels with each other on the first corner of the first lap, and overtaking each other later in the race.
Whne you compare this sporting attitude with the disgraceful cynicism at Ferrari - where Massa has to allow Alonso past if he wants to pass him, and the team orders at Red Bull which always favour Schumacher mk2, but they dont have the guts or honesty to admit that he is he number 1 driver. I think Mclaren should be allowed to write the rules for next season on team orders/ track ettiquette etc. :y
They seem to recognise the importance of not just winning, but the fact that the sport itself is important. Long may it continue. 8-)

Agreed, it was nice to see them having a go at each other,plus they seem to have enough respect for each other not to go too far :y
