So, there was an Australian National Anthem after all

On another note, Webber prayed for a boring Sunday, and a boring Sunday we got.

Wow! What a race! Kudos to Webbo for making light of the (unjust?) drive-thru penalty. Nice going by Vettel, Felipe, Rosberg. Bad luck for Sutil. It's the 2nd time Kimi has rained on his parade.

You are unfaithful to your Church.
Yes guys, I feel todays race was the best race so far this season.
Webber really spat on the stewards' faces. He was given a totally unwanted penalty... In my opinion Sutil deserved it.

Agreed about it being best race of season.
I thought it was Kimi's fault. Oh well, let's see what the stewards say about it.

Sutil didn't see, You cant expect Kimi or anyone else for the matter slowing and allowing him, Sutil didn't have to slow down either, could have given him some space.
Shame that Lewis and Sutil blew away the hardwork their Mechanics put in.
I still have understand what exactly wen wrong with Lewis, so far it looks like its entirely his fault.

For those who cant hear.
Rubens Barrichello on what went wrong: "I guess the strategy... it was a good show from the team on how to lose a race today. I'm terribly upset with the way things went. I did all I had to do. I went first on the first corner and then they made me lose the race. If it is really what's going on, we're going to end up losing both championships. I feel sorry for myself, the team. To be very honest, I wish I could get on the plane and go home. I don't want to talk to anyone in the team. It will be all 'bla bla bla' and I don't want to hear that."

And I actually think he might be RBR's better bet for the WDC. Not that Vettel is a bad one, mind you! They have a great team

Fantastic race!!!One of the bests,if not the best of the season.
Poor Barrichello...he deserved to be at least 5th...*whistles*
Alonso's start spoiled what could have been a much better race...his clutch was broken,perhaps he broke it when he span on the warm-up lap?
Rosberg,the invisible man,who ended 4th!
Sutil could have made history,again...
Hamilton made his own luck...
Kovalainen disappeared into the back..well,he managed to grab 1 point...
Good,solid Massa,better than the overpaid Raikkonen again...
Go BMW!
Bye Bourdais.
That's all folks.

You have to assume the consequences when stating a controversial opinion And I'm assuming them. Actually it's harder to type it out loud than to defend it afterwards

Damn this feels a lot like Hungary 2006 only much more sweeter after the winter. Hilarious that so many were going on about Vettel vs Button missing the obvious. Loved his comments in the press conference "there are a few people who doubted me as well so hello to them"
Sweet, so sweet. This season is the best. I really hope we fan see a Webber and Button battle, I might have a heart attack at a young age but boy...
