Kubica's drive was one of the best of the race. I really like his car control. He is terribly overshadowing Heidfeld.

Yeah, but it was only the fault of one of those two people. And he wasn't the driver from Force India....

Yeah, I don't cry for KR. He'll get many more cracks at top finishes and world champion status. Sutil has to be devastated. I can't believe how well he drove considering how his races went in the past. Maybe that's the effect of much less aero and a wet track, equalizing the cars. If so, he's a better driver than I gave him credit for.

This certainly was the most exciting race in quite a while. Just how many noses got replaced?!

Enough to keep a Beverly Hills cosmetic surgeon in business that is for sure.

I am really surprised by Kimi's driving of late. He is so defensive nowadays its just not his style and what the hell is up with Alonso? Just because you are faster the guy in front should give you way?
Kubica was very good and I feel Hamilton, Massa, Kimi and Alonso were extremely lucky to be able to finish the race.
