Massa!

I think the championship would look different today if FM did not have to start from the back of the grid during the first race of the season.

Oh and I loved the flexing silver wings!

I'll admit I have been gone for a few days because I was at a driving school, and then wanted to watch the recorded race before I came here and found out who won, but I'm shocked there are not more threads on this race!

Felipe Massa- Ferrari
Lewis Hamilton- McLaren-Mercedes, +6.7 secs
Fernando Alonso- McLaren-Mercedes, +17.4 secs
Robert Kubica- BMW, +31.6 secs
David Coulthard- Red Bull-Renault, +58.3 secs
Nico Rosberg- Williams-Toyota, +59.5 secs
Heikki Kovalainen- Renault, +62.1 secs
Takuma Sato- Super Aguri-Honda, +1 Lap

FM, proving to be very capable without MS...
LH, this kid is breaking all sorts of records and will be a winner soon
FA, I bet he is pissed to be behind the rookie teammate of his
RK, holy crap, BMW in the top 4, I would never have guessed, but am happy to see
DC, all I can do is smile, I'm a big DC fan and it is nice to see the elderly gentleman doing well
NR, amazing results for Williams
HK, oh how the champion team has fallen without FA
TS, all I can say is holy shitt, the factory Honda team has really been shown up by Super Aguri now

I really enjoyed seeing super agur get their maiden point! At the start of the year I decided that I could not support Honda and their goofy livery this year, and put my full support into Super Aguri. I always supported both, but this year Honda is just terrible, and being out done by their own B team that has been in F1 for a year shows just how bad things are at Honda.

I was wearing my limited edition, one of 300 made, Super Aguri Seiko chronograph while cheering on Taku!

It was a great race, Massa did a fantastic job and Taku with is 1st point for a underdog team is unbelievable. Also glad to see DC back on the top in 5th. It's too bad for Kimi, bad luck seams to follow him around. Ham was fantastic as well, beating the local favorites Alonso. There were definitely a lot of Alonso fans there, I couldn't image what it would be like if Alonso won the race.

And the timing is great, based upon all the talk that he has to prove his worth to get a ride next year.

DC's finish makes me so happy. I'm glad to see the Newey car starting to succeed up to the level that was predicted pre-season (they were looking for podiums). Hopefully RBR has some talent in development for the few years and can be challenging for a championship soon!
