Congratulations to Lewis Hamilton on his first win!

My drive of the race goes to Takuma Sato - on track passes of both Kimi and Fernando! Took 6th by passing Alonso!

the two passes by Sato at the end were great! Alonso had a horrible race and it was only fitting that he was passed at the end. haha!!!

the race was crazy. four safety cars. a big disgrace by Honda, getting RB up to third but making him pit in the last 5 laps because he never used his supersofts. they said Kubica has a broken leg...that's a bummer.

Ditto. That wrong side pass on Alonso was outstanding. The entire podium was awesome for F1 - was really happy to see Nick up there as it was well deserved.

First read of Hamilton back in 2001 in F1 Magazine - then he disappeared from view. I've got recordings of him from GP2 last year so this has been pretty cool to see this development thinking back to that first mention in F1 mag.

Amazing race, but too bad for Kubica. I'm glad to read that he's OK though. Well done Lewis, he a future multipe world champion for sure, he's amazing. Great result to Heidfeld, who I hope stays with BMW, and good for Alex, nice to see him on the podium. Sato did a great job, his passes on Kimi and Alonso blew my mind! Great job Taku!

Thing is though, Kubica probably woln't be ready for next week at Indy, so I guess Mario is going to put Vettel in the car? Now we get to see what he can do, although I don't like the idea of either Robert or Nick sitting out.

Ferrari needs to cut their losses with Massa. They aren't gonna win anything with him at the wheel. Bring back "The Chin"

You sure about that? At least "that guy" finished the race and scored points.
