^^ update your sig. Now. j/k
I'm really happy with how BMW is doing this year. They will podium VERY soon.
Unfortunate about Heidfeld, though, he was doing so well, and one little mistake on pit lane ...

Yeah but the rookie Hamilton is leading in points + a podium finish for every race. How do ya like them apples? ;-)

I believe Hamilton is destined for F1 greatness. Sir Jackie Stewart commented on Hamilton in a recent interview saying: "I think he is going to rewrite the book" and "We'll see a new generation of properly prepared professional racing drivers. I don't think there is one who is that."

As for the rest of them who knows, what a cluster. I am not a big fan for customer cars at all. I am for the Williams and Spyker teams and I hope they win the arbitration over Red Bull and Honda/Super Aguri, however I would love to see Super Aguri beat the rediculous budget of Honda with last years car.

100% agree... customer cars are just another step closer to going from Formula1 to Spec1... its already getting there with the tires and the new ECU

I didn't know this thread was on here. Well next race is in Spain and I will be there with my wife on vacation. I will post Spanish F1 pics when we get back. Also I will be at Indy for the race will anybody else be out there? Turn 1 is the best seat in the house I think.

I think Ferrari will win the constructors championship this year with a tight battle between Kimi and Massa. I prefer Massa.

McLaren will be second as constructors with Fernando edging out Hamilton. Hamilton looks great but I think he has a little beginners luck going and is a little to high on himself, however what a great calm first stint against Massa a couple of weeks ago.

BMW will be third as constructors occassionally showing up on the podium with a victory here or there possibly. Heidfeld will beat Kubica only because he hates him and does not want to lose his ride.

Renault will come on strong in the middle of the season and give BMW a run but wil not beat them.

Just my 2 cents, we will see what happens at the end, but there are alot more possiblilities without Michael!

I am real excited about this year. 3 way tie!!!! This is great. I would really like to see Hamilton win a couple. However I am a huge Ferrari fan so I hope they pull it out in the end. Kudo's to BMW as well, my wife meet Nick a few years back he is a super nice guy and deserves it.

Here's the top eight finishers (those who got points)

1. Massa
2. Hamilton
3. Kimi
4. Heidfeld
5. Alonso
6. Kubica
7. Trulli
8. Fisichella

Race details....

The race had a few 'events'. Speed and Button were taken out in the first lap, the other three Red Bull sponsored cars dropped out due to various mechanical gremlins, A. Davidson (Super Aguri) painted a good portion of the track with oil as his engine expired, Sato (Super Aguri) had the best ka-blam-o I've seen in a while....main straight & 19K rpm when it let go. Alonso had a less than ideal day and Kimi struggled with grip at times. Here's the best bit: three drivers (Alonso, Hamilton & Kimi) each have 22 points for the driver's title, Massa has 17 and Heidfeld has 15. McLaren is beating Ferrari in the constructors and BMW is gaining ground.

Now for the bad news: the Spanish GP is on May 13th - one month away :-(

I missed this mornings' broadcast of the race so I've been avoiding this thread and all motorsports news sites until I watched the replay this evening. Great race - BMW is clearly picking up the pace and Nick H. is driving with some fervor seeing his contract is on the line with BMW-Sauber. Hamilton is the real deal and I give him pretty good odds he'll win a race this season.....just gotta wait for Massa to have a bad day. Sato's ka-blam-o was impressive too :-D
