For those of you who don't get Speed Channel it's your chance to see some F1 action live. The Canadian GP this Sunday will be shown on the Fox channel at 1PM. And next weekend the US GP at Indy will be on Fox channel also.

My boy,Lewis Hamilton.

It was a very exciting race.

Pace car was out on the track,4 times.
Very SEVERE accident for Kubica;last report said,he should survive;but they don.t say much;he has been carried to the hospital,by helicopter.(last news,they said broken feet.)

Felipe Massa,and Fisichella,have been diqualified;Black Flags,for both of them.

Nick Heidfeld finished second in front of Alex Wurz, Heikki Kovalainen, Kimi Ra

That sounds like the most action in an F1 race in a VERY long time.

What a great weekend for open-wheeled racing. I watched the IRL, F1 and Champ. F1 was by far the most exciting, IRL second, and Champ... was, well Champ.

That was a VERY VERY bad accident for Kubica. I can't believe we've heard the full extent of his injuries. Congrats to Lewis. I wanted to hear him speak but they never showed him talking; I've yet to hear him. He is outstanding, for sure, for a rookie. This was the first F1 race I've been able to see this year (let my Speed channel expire when they raised the rates and I got sick of NASCAR non-stop on it). I would love to see the LeMans stuff next week but I live without it.

Definitely a wild and weird race today but very entertaining.

I was off on family obligations, so I missed the race. I'll be looking for a replay. Go Hamilton!

Dave, I feel the same way about Speed! NASCAR sucks --even if they didn't saturate the channel with it. Still, I have to hang onto Speed, for the other occasional offerings -- makes many things easier to receive.

After the race ,they interviewed him.
This guy,is very clever,he has a very good head on his shoulders.!!!

He thanked his father,for all the sacrifices,he had done to give him the chance,to get,where he is now.(not a very good translation,but,I hope you get the meaning.!!!)

He admitted to his bad start,(his revs were too high,then too low...)and he said,it was very difficult to maintain the pace,after so many stops in the race,(pace car outings...)wich made him lose all the advance he had...
But he said,it was,his best G.P.ever...
This guy,will beat,all the records of Schumacher,(and Fangio...)in a couple years..
very good pilot,and don't forget;he is still a ROOKIE...

I saw some of it until the cable went out

Maybe I can catch it on repeat.
