That was a great race - overtaking on corners that people were thinking no overtaking - load of action so much that it looked like FOM missed so much judging by all the replays!

And rain expected for next week.......

As a general rule, I can just about tolerate cutting to the Pit Wall or the Garage every now and again, but I'm afraid all the shots of "who the hell is that?" sundry "celebs" is totally unnecessary - Motor Racing is about Cars, so let's watch the Cars.

Ditto with Rugby etc. - Let's watch the Ball.

FOM do it at every Race, sadly - but I know what you mean.

Your comment about the US reminds me of a Cartoon on the back page of today's Sunday Times Review Section: A certain US General was pointing at one new addition to the rows of Medals on his chest >>>>>>>> "That one's for keeping my trousers on"

Yes congratulations to [poiler] Lewis [/poiler] certainly the best race of the season, indeed a great show by the American hosts, I do think Jenson excelled considering his starting position and being blocked to the first corner

Did Bernie just say that they will have 3 USA races within 3 years?!?!?!?!?
WTF!!!!
No USA teams, No USA Drivers, why 3 in the USA.More in Europe!??!?!??!?!?!

ANd my driver of the day....Massa...did what he team asked him to do...dropped several places, and STILL came out with a great drive and placing...and still smiling at the end of race interviews!
Unelss they just gave him a 5m "bonus"....


And congrats to Oily - we have a winner for the league, thanks to my dreadful last 2 races.....

Theres no money in Europe now - if anything there will be more races in Asia - I can see the Europe races getting pruned heavily in the next few years.

There will be more alternate year agreements for Europe - and ffs get rid of Valencia which has been one of the more boring races over the last 5 years

Should have had it at cheste circuit just outside of valencia - great moto gp races, great dtm races...and the money could have been better spend upgrading its facilities rather than the tempoary track at the port....
but then it is a designated test track that they use in Feb, so not too sure if they could use it for a race or not

Congrats on taking the drivers title Oily, well played you've had some good team choices :-asta
That still leaves the constructors to be decided in Brazil between myself and wobbles, there's only 18 points in it, so may the best teams win :-cheers
