As you all know motorsport is my thing and I have to congratulate Mark Webber on his second career win, throroughly deserved and a massive congratulations to Jenson Button who has finally become world champ and to the entire Brawn GP team, resurrected from the ashes of the never succesful Honda team, led by the finest team prinicipal F1 has ever seen.

 :D :D :D :cool: :cool: :cool:

It was a splendid race, true class shown by Button, even though he wasn't on the podium

I hope we don't spoil our Oz friends enjoyment of the rerun with this post though  :mrgreen:

I thought the race was great. Button looked like a racer again, and I had my tenner on Hamilton for a podium at 10-1  :mrgreen:

Yes, congratulations to Jenson and Brawn.

Think Honda must feel a bit sick having designed the car then pulling out only to find it was such a winner.

I wonder how the i30, of course a supped up one, would perform as the Safety Car?

Congratulations to button & Mark Webber, if it was easy everyone would be doing it!

i don't get to see the racing as it's always on at very late hours here , & i don't pay for TV coverage ( too cheap)

i don't know if any of you got to watch the Australian bike GP @ Philliup Island on sunday but it was very exciting to watch Casey Stonner win his third in a row round there, he has been having problems and looks like he is back, him and Valantino just left the field behind, i could not beleave just how hard Stonner was pushing it in the last laps, Rossi just could not catch him. phillip island is also a very beautifull place must be one of the nicest settings for a race track and also best quality air you could wish for.

You can watch the F1 on ONE HD.

I managed to catch glimpses of the pre-race but then got vetoed from watching it by wife and kid :/
