Wow. That does not bode well for anyone else offering any real resistance for the rest of the season. Schumi will continue his legacy as one of the all-time greats.
 
Results look somewhat typical... other than the BAR-Honda in 4th... looks like theyve got their stuff together finally... after 5 years... 😕 McLaren looks horrible on the other hand... 😕

the time difference between Williams and Ferrari ins't much.

I forsee a close season.
 
Are you guys sure?


There's still 3h15m to the race.
EDIT: N/M ... site got the wrong time.
 
Ahh... here's the thread! I swear I searchs {formula1, f1, formula, grand prix} and didn't find anything 😛

Love the live timer at the formula1 website! Good use of java applets 🙂
 
Meh ... not that good of a race. Only 'surprise' was Raikonnen's problem.

And I liked the Java applet ... much better than our race commentator. Thanks! 🙂

Yeah, I miss the old British announcer... he would get so excited at the start of the race. It's a shame he retired 🙁

The front of the race was a bit boring, but there was quite a bit of action in the middle of the pack. Montoya made a couple nice passes, especially that one on R. Schumacher early in the race.

I think I've memorized the German national anthem now 🙂


 
Go Alonso!!!!

i'd like to see Renault (which is considered a middle-order team) to become a dominant force this season. They were close last season, but fell short.

Too bad the R24 is lacking in straight line power. I also thought this would be there year coming in but I guess the engine(though torquey and tractable as seen Alonso and Trulli's unbelievable race starts), was much more lacking than Renault wanted to portray. However, Melbourne is a "power" circuit. Sepang, Barcelona, and Monaco will suit it much more.
 
F1, Champs, Indy > Nascar...LOL. I think I am the only person in my office that not a big fan of Nascar.

I'm happy to see them return. Their engines dominated in the 90's (Williams Renault)
