The Official F1 2009 Thread

Dammit, I need to stop reading this thread before I've watched the damn race... lol

I'm so pissed that Vettel was knocked out in Q1, he's usually so good in the rain!

Kobayashi was pretty entertaining to watch.

Sadly, Vettel and Barrichelo will be fighting for 2nd place at the last race. Button finished 5th and with that he is the new World Champion. A slow puncture on a front tire killed Ruebens chances in teh waning laps and he finished 8th. Brawn is also the Constructor's Champs.

The begining was the wildest I have seen in a while.

Anyways: 1st:M.Webber(RBR) 2nd: Kubica(BMW) and 3rd: Hamilton(McMerc)

Now onto Abu Dhabi...........

boo

ill give credit to Button for putting in a great drive today. Poor Rubins cant win at Brazil no matter how good his chances are

He had the wrong car setup going in to the race, but he put in a good drive. Rubins that is.

Glad to see BMW going out with style

Holy CRAP who saw the start of the race? Crazy pit stop w/ Kovaleinen

Just like Massa at singapore last year, cant believe they didnt penalize McLaren for that release. Very sporting of Brawn to help him out.

What a GREAT race. So much better then road course races

Sadly I am reading text... but sounded interesting.

Still hoping for something to get Vettel up at top.

This should be a great race. I expect a lot of passing with the mix of wet setup and dry setup cars that will be on the grid starting the race.

I would like to see Barrichello pull it out. I can't believe the way Jenson has just continued to melt down/lose focus/back off/whatever.

[E30Kaiser]

Correct, Rubinho 81 and Button 85, should Rubinho win and Button not score.

[quickervicar]

IIRC, if Rubens wins & Button scores no points it is down to 4 going into Abu Dhabi

[E30Kaiser]

I will be glad to eat my words about Rubinho getting a win here! Anyone but Button 2009! My boy Vettel is going to need a miracle, but this track has seen stranger things.
