Thanks for upgrading me Jabba.

Well, as far as F1 races go, this was one of the better ones this year other than the fact that Villeneuve did not finish in the points. I didn't get to watch it live, so this is the next best thing. In the qualifying session, i think its the first time in a while, Schumacher made such a big mistake. I can't stand him. Wish he was still int he Benneton. Great start for Raikkonen and Trulli. One of the commentators did a great job pointing out that Barrichello wasn't really paying attention at the start. It was great that the safety car came out. Helped close the field and really benefitted Button. What the hell was Pizzonia thinking stopping after the restart? LOL, "Oh my, Oh goodness me." What the hell was the idiot on the track thinking. And how about that tackle and the safety car again. Could you imagine if someone had hit him? It would have been like Randy Johnson nailing the bird. Again the safety car made things interesting and i think it changed quite a few team's pit strategies. With all the yellows, it was almost like a NASCAR race. Barrichello and Ralf's battle was awesome. Great pass by Barrichello. Its been a while since i've seen this much passing in an f1 race. Its brutal how much faster the ferrari is than the BAR. The camera angles for the race were great especially the helmet cam on the crew members. Barrichello was passing people like it was nothing. Very impressive drive. Raikkonen on the other hand was making mistakes all over the place. Too bad he couldn't take advantage of Michael's bad qualifying. Coulthard and Trulli was a great fight as well. This was a great race with action all over the place. Ecclestone hopefully will bring the race back to Silverstone next year.
