Indeed.  He always has been too.

Still, I'd like to see him at least win one race this season.

Really shame about Moldy. Wink
 
Actual shame abot Schumi. What was his penalty? Good for Webber though! Hopefully he doesn't lose 4 spots on the start and can do something with this stroke of good luck.

^Driving into the back of Senna at the last race, earning him the distinction of being the only person to have ever knocked both Ayrton and Bruno out of a race.

Yeah, well, giving him a drive through penalty at the time would have been useless since he was out of the race, this was the only other option.

6 from 6! I wish that rain had come a bit earlier though, the last part of the race was the most interesting.

Not from 6 teams sadly, but still epic.

And Webber's joint second in the title hunt,  looks like he'll get another good crack at it this year.

Championship still fairly open I think. Good to see Webber push his chin...err nose higher into the fight. Still no real standout through six. And with Canada's history I think we could definitely get a 7th.

And oh Sato...your succulant b*****d! Just a little more patience and I think he could of had it. Dario may have been able to pass him again though...but he (Sato) definitely seemed to be in the catbird sit.
 
But who can't be happy for Dario victory. With his recent running I can definitely see him getting a 4th 500 and soon.

Dario won I take it? Thats good to see, he's had a terrible start to the season so its good to see him back on track.

Also, do you know if the Lotus powered cars were parked? I see neither Alesi or De Silvestro made it past 10 laps.

Yes he did. Very good race by him as well, as he got spun early on pit road and drove back through the field. Pretty darn exciting race overall, with a record number of lead changes (at times it almost seemed too easy to pass). Certainly the most exciting one I've watched.
 
And Alesi was for sure (they interviewed him), so I assume the other lotus car was as well.

Quite a boring race. Needed more rain at the end. Bet the guy who changed to inters felt a dick.

That was a snoozefest.  My mate put it on live record and fast-forwarded through much of it and we missed very little!

Yes, the rain was bucketing down at the end.  I wish either it had come earlier, or the had been yellow and/or safety car out for a bit longer, so to delay the ending by 5 or 10 minutes.  The rain would have made it far more exciting.

I feel terrible for Button.  He got stuck behind Kovaleinen on a track that was difficult to overtake on.

Also, I missed the post-race interviews.  What exactly happened with Schumacher?

And also, what on earth hit Hamilton on the head?
