As a reminder for all US members of TFP, the race will not be broadcast on Speed. Rather it will be taped delayed and broadcast on Fox in the afternoon. Check your local listings.

And sleep in!

Shaping up as another RBR vs Brawn match up with the white cars having two laps more fuel on board.

If Kimi has luck on his side (which he rarely does) a podium doesn't seem out of the question.

I'd like to see Lewis make another storm up through the field but he seems to have so little comfort and confidence in the Mclaren that it may not happen.

Gotta love Turn 8.

Stunning race, plenty of drama. Loved it.

It's great to see this fantastic sport actually have some racing and strategy going on.

Strange Famous · 06-07-2009, 08:56 AM

Another terrible result for Lewis. Jenson is running away with it at the moment.

Craven Morehead · 06-07-2009, 09:24 PM

Loved the Piquet and Hamilton dicing. Wish there was more of this kind of action.

Certainly wasn't Rubens' day, was it?

Jetée · 06-07-2009, 10:25 PM

Yeah, it was a surprise just flipping the channel to Fox and seeing F1 speeders.

What baffled me was why they were showing it so late as it would be well into the 9-10 o'clock time there; tape delay was my response.

A nice race from beginning to ..well, I didn't catch the end, but it was exciting throughout my viewership.

They position it so more people here will watch it I believe.

Still getting used to this new order of things after the last few years haha. I didn't like to see Red Bull pulling driver order, Vettel was faster.

He was very taciturn in the interviews after, but is too much the diplomat to say quite what he was feeling.
