| I usually find out about road rallies the morning after when someone says "Did you go watch the rally last night?" to which my reply is "What rally??"  |

| F1 for me Ferrari fan, i reckon Alonso may have a good shot this year, but Would love Button or Vettel to win Not sure on Massa at the moment, liked him since he was at Sauber but after his crash not sure what he will be like |

| I'm backing Hamilton, I reckon he's a properly good driver, considering last year in the first race he made up 17 places in a below average car.
I'm also backing Force India, 'cause they're a relatively small UK team and have improved a lot since the beginning of last season. And also Lotus, but after todays performance I don't hold much hope for them,
I never really liked Raikkonen, but I've gained a lot of respect for Massa this season - it must take some balls to get behind the wheel again after that crash.
I wasn't sure about Schumi's return, thought his driving would be a bit outdated, but he preformed quite well today.
I agree with Mim, the regulations are strangling the sport, I wanna see a return to stupidly big V12s and V16s! |

| Buttons the Man ! Amazing if slightly boring drive - But that's what everyone used to say about Schumacher when he was dominating races ! Looked after the tyres and it paid off, Wont be the last time his driving style pays off this season. I really do enjoy seeing Hamilton whinge like a big girl when things dont go his way ! I was laughing at him moaning over the radio towards the end because he couldnt pass Alonso, even on fucked tyres !  |

| I think the whole pukking Hamilton in and leaving Button out was a bit of a publicity stunt.. Mclaren wanted their new boy to show the world what he's got and that it wasn't just Brawn's (awesome) car that won him the championship last year. I still think Hamilton deserved better!
Force india and Lotus let me down again! |

| Dont agree there - Hamiltion is Hard on tyres, He wouldnt have been anywhere if he'd had to make them last the race. He pretty much knackered up the extra set he had put on anyway, granted he was gunning for it though !
Theres no way Mclaren would Jepordise a chance of winning the world championship to prove a point. |

| its a point jenson got the choice when to change his tires and they just pitted hamilton for the hell of it they`l still win the championship its just they wanted to prove jenson can pull his weight in the `claren , hamilton finished 6th from 11th nd he lost half his splitter and was kamikazied by webber - still a good turnout considdering but it could have been better. remember last season his "tire change" incident when he got to the pits and there was no one there to change his tires  its almost like his team are doing it delibrateley |

| But surely an early win is good for Button's morale? And psycologically puts him in a good frame of mind for the rest of the season? |
