Good race while it lasted
Raikkonen is the coolest guy alive. He's like the PS3, you see? Could win easily but it's not even trying in fact. He's also the only one able to ride last place with style.
OK, now I have more time. What a race!
Incredible, and proves that the F1 organization is severely fucked up. I mean, in Australia you could see wrong things (the time of start, the fact taht the safety car was deployed wrong and had to make signs for everyone to pass them), and this proves it. Seriously, the commentators said that since Wed EVERY SINGLE DAY a monsoon started at 18:00, punctually. Why did they race at that time? 50 mins waiting to see if it launched or not is crazy
Speaking about the race, Button is a fantastic driver, even with the bad start, he knows he has the best car but he's driving at his fullest too. Toyota are very strong too, and I dunno how Heidfeld scratched that 2nd spot, he must be in heaven now.
Ferrari pathetic (are they so desperate that they had to do that screwup with Kimi, I mean, that's a maneuvre of a team that feels everything's lost, are they in such a bad situation to make that last ditch effort).
McLaren is sucky too, if it weren't for Hamilton they'd be worse than Ferrari, you could see how everyone was quicker than him (how many times you see a Red Bull passing a McLaren?).

Yeah, it was really stupid to start the race at 5PM, but having rain involved does always make the race more exciting (my dad proposed that they should spray the track with water at random points during the race)
I'm not sure about Button as a driver, he is good, but that car is awesome, it is just way faster than the rest out there
The big question is what the hell has happened to Ferrari and McLaren, why are there cars so slow?

Yeah, I love rain, it always makes races exciting, but they knew this rain would be too much to handle, I mean, I'm always against suspending races, but the track was completely flooded, it was absolutely impossible to drive. Though the spray thing sounds good 
If I ranked him, he'd not be in the top tier (which would have Alonso, Hamilton and Vettel, and maybe Raikkonen and Kubica), but he's definitely one of the best of the 2nd tier. The only time he had a good car (2004 season), he finished 3rd in the championship, after the Ferraris that had a car that was out of the world that season.
I think the less test rule definitely screwed him, maybe they've become too dependant on doing a lot of tests. Or, I read somewhere, that since they were contesting the championship till the end last year, they couldn't start developing seriously for the next year, while teams like Toyota and Brawn (then Honda) had given up that season and started developing the car early, which gave them the advantage. But other than that, I don't know

Interesting ideas, I guess the late development of the car, combined with tons of rule changes meant that they could not really get it right in time for the new season, but I am sure the rear diffuser that they are inevitably designing will give them a boost in the upcoming races
Yey the Brits are best again!.....
(do a get a warning for saying 'Brits' as I would if I shortened another nationalities name?)
P.S. I am a 'Brit'
When does anyone moan about people saying Brits? Apart from the Scots of course
