smooth race today. the bmw's are looking good despite kubica bowing out. Hrm... the mclarens didn't break. This may be the year they contend for top spot.

sato is still racing? i'd thought he'd get thrown out along with his buddy from a year ago ... :rolleyes:

Well, I think the race was quite boring... Kimi did a very good job. His Ferrari was the fastest today. And Lewis was great too. Third place in his first F1 race is fantastic!!! I'm a bit dissapointed about Kubica not finishing but hey, it's only start of the season... ;)

Good race, this season is going to be a classic.

It is a shame Davidson was a bit unlucky today, he could of scored a point or two.

[Shibby 1]

Was a nice safe race to start the season. And i must say BMW did very well. If they keep on the back of the Mclaren and Ferrari heels then they will score some nice points.

I agree, good race, Lewis Hamilton, WOW , great performance, a podium on his first race. I'm impressed.

Should be a good season, unpredictable I hope. Ferrari and Raikonnen should win.

McLaren Mercedes Power :p

The crash involving David Coulthard was something where he flew over someone's nose cone, quite near to his head! All in all, a good race and congratulations for Kimi Raikonnen for a solid drive!

So.. who do you think is going to win the Formula 1 World Championship 2007?

I think this year witht he single tyre supplier it is going to be mighty intersting as was the first race.

Thanks

Crazysah

BTW - Can someone pin this?

EDIT: In the poll... can someone change Raikonnen's name to his full name?

[Fozzieb 0]

cool, first vote.

I can't believe how well Lewis Hamilton did on sunday.

[Crazysah 7]

Yeah. He did mighty well on Sunday I must say. Kimi Raikonnen drove a perfect race too except for the fact that he had no radio throughout the race. That was quite funny.

Sad for Kubica to go out that easily.

[Fourjays 106]

I don't think Kimi will win it unless Ferrari keep a massive lead over McLaren car-wise. His attitude never seemed to be right in 2005, and I think it ultimately cost him the champ.

I'd really like to see Hamilton win. Yeh, he's a rookie, but he did win GP2 first time round. No reason why he can't do the same in F1 if he has the car under him.

[Martyn 5]

Didnt you see we already have one Crazyah? With loads of posts in already, use this:

It would be nice if a mod merged these threads and pinned the one I just posted.

Kimi is a good driver, but these past few years the Mclaren's have been poor. Later i will have to find the stats of Kimi at Mclaren later.

Hell.... :o

That would of killed him for sure...the momentum of an F1 car is so big.

Are the races being recorded in HD yet?

[Skiver 1,958]

awesome race, im quite new to F1 but that was a pretty good race:)

i think kimi is gonna have this season but i wouldnt say for sure... i think even hamilton could give him a run for his money... it was interesting to see that hamilton was only 4 tenths of a second slower then alonso in the qualifiers but was carrying more fuel... id like to see him beat alonso next race :p

im still a button fan unfortunatly... i hope honda manage to sort out the aero dynamics problems so we can see a better race from him... dont think he can win much this year but id like to see him come close

and i think mclaren are definalty gonna win the constructers this year, two awesome drivers who i bet will see many podium finishes this year

[Shibby 1]

I feel sorry for button. I think honda had nothing but problems and he is not really gaining much out of being with them.

But then where would he go?

[Kerm 51]

Hamilton was the man!

Astonishing performance for his first F1 race.

He might just get me watching F1 again.

[Crazysah 7]

I saw that crash too. Luckily they are both fine.

[BroChaos 1]

i'm new to f1. always appreciated it, but never watched it. managed to watch all of this race, and i enjoyed it. hope to catch more this year.

[Shibby 1]

As far as i'm aware the only way for the lower teams to be competive, is for them to drive well and sort out aero stuff.

I'm sure this season there is an engine freeze, so they teams have to work even harder to get speed.

[Martyn 5]

Any chance of this being stickied like last seasons thread please?

[Martyn 5]

Malaysia this weekend :)

I hate three week breaks in between races which they sometimes have.
