So it looks like Michael is way on his way to winning yet another championship.

I read it was a tough one for schumy tho...... Montoya gave him hell.

But I'm going to watch it today at 9pm on Speed.

[Hawk]

Yes montoya gave a good fight!

[MattM20]

man i was pissed to see the P84 blow, but i'm glad montoya was able to finish in second. also, next time i dont think it wold be a good idea to post the winner in the title since the replay hasnt aired yet, and not everyone stayed up till 3 (or 4 eastern) to watch it.

[M-technik-3]

It was tough only in first few laps according to F1 offical website.

What a cocky bastard :P lol j/k

I'll see the race at 9pm and then give a final answer on how much pressure JPM put on Schumy.

I don't really mind that BMW doesn't win the races.

I am a fan of the fact that the BMW's turn the highest RPM and have the most powerful motors!

after JPM got around rubens early in the race he gained on MS amazingly fast in the first lap but then started to trail off, which was partly due to the sudden downpour. jpm's first two pit stops were considerably faster thans MSs' but i guess there's a good reason why MS is 6 time world champ

[Erick]

JPM did get the fastest lap time tho

[Jon325i]

MS did put on a flawless performance....no surprise. JPM was putting in a good fight for Schuey but I don't think he would've ever caught him.

I was glad to see Jenson Button get his first podium. BAR has clearly made some strides since last year. If their engines can survive an entire weekend they will be another team to watch.

I'm stumped about McLaren. Those guys need to get their shit sorted out and quick or they won't even be a contender for the world title. You've got to wonder what JPM is thinking seeing he's going to this team next year.

did anyone catch Kimi pissed off

[Jon325i]

did anyone catch Kimi pissed off

Yep....not very professional of him either. I know he was all ticked-off given what happened, but in F1 there are cameras EVERYWHERE. If you need to vent, go back to the team motorhome and do it there.

I'm sure Ron Dennis had a "chat" once Kimi returned to the garage.

i saw him do that several times last season too :? :roll:

[Stu]

I liked Montoya's 1-liner to his pit-crew over the radio, after Raikanon cut him off (last season).

"Fucking Raikannon....what a fucking idiot!"

[325 eta]

Montoya is a funny basterd, i like the comments he made about the comment Ralf made in Austria( how he had cut ralf off). if there were any whinny bitch in f1 it has to be Ralf. good thing bmw lowered there offer and gave him a deadline. his living off his brothers fame.
