Sato's nuts. He pulled off part one of that move and got inside position without locking up or sliding into RB. But it was way to late, RB had the right to the line at that point. Sato has a ton of talent, but he needs more F1 experience; I think he still gets too excited/aggressive. Leads to mistakes.
It was an entertaining race. Button's pass on the outside of DC was awsome. Honda would be looking so much better if they could give Sato a car that wouldn't blow up. That's the 3rd or 4th race that he's blown up while in a points position.
Freakin JPM??? Another race, another incident. Wipes out his one teammate. [Red Foreman] Dumbass! [/Red Foreman]

The minute Sato pulled out behind Rubens you just *knew* something was going to happen. Sato has good speed, but has yet to mature as a driver - it's flat out all day for him with absolutely no subtlety. Don't think that stuff would go over well in 'cup either

Glad he didn't take RB out. Based on RB's interview, it seemed like he almost expected Sato to get by at some point, he just couldn't believe the stupid move. Sato forced it in an impossible situation and it cost him.
There was some speculation that he might have damaged a radiator or cooler with debris from the front wing that caused his later problem. We'll probably never know.

I didn't like the pit exit, some drivers were driving entirely over the white line (in the pit exit) while they were on the race track (not leaving the pits). I guess it's legal, I saw they wave a flag when someone's going to come out, but it seems like a bad accident waiting to happen.

You really should put a SPOILER WARNING on future threads regarding F1 results.
Many of us don't have the time or energy to get up and watch the first showing of the race and wait for the replay later this evening. I knew I shouldn't have clicked on your thread...now I don't even need to watch.

You were right to complain about result in the title. But if you are looking on *race day*, whether the originator of the thread gives results or not, someone is going to talk about it. I record on my ReplayTV and I wouldn't go near a thread about the race on race day. Let's get real.
