Just had god knows how many laps under the safety car, as it was too dangerous to let them loose. As soon as the safety car came in, everyone was in the pits for inters as the track isnt wet enough for wet tyres - rather disgraceful. >:(

excellent race, Button was brilliant, hate to say I told you so but put Vettel under a bit of pressure and he cracks without fail  ;)

Had the old ticker racing at the end.

Good driving by Jenson (apart from the collision with Hamilton).

Four hours, that's nothing.. I spent 20hrs in front of the telly for LeMans ;D (I caved at 5am and got 4hrs sleep, promptly missing Audi taking the lead..)

Good GP, though.

A great race and a great finish.

In fact, close to perfect, a Brit in first place and Scumacher in 4th so no podium! Great!

As for the 'incident', Hamilton was a little to hopeful there (he was still half a car length behind button), racing incident 'six of one and half a dozen of the other' as my gran used to say.

I think he knew he was there, and tried to squeeze him - Hamilton had room, but would have meant going on the grass.

I suspect McLaren feel similar, as they kept repeating that both drivers had agreed between themselves that it was a racing incident, which I think was more a message for the stewards than to anyone else...

much as i admire Lewis Hamiltons racing instincts, skill, aggression and bravery i think he does need to dial it back a touch - taking mad lunges in the first lap (webber) or nearly taking out button early on - and all you see is spray in the mirrors, so no, Jenson couldn't possibily see Lewis......and if you think he could that means that you also think Jenson deliberately pushed Lewis into the wall risking finishing both their chances??  :o

doubt it  :y
