Bella, is that the car's weight only, or driver weight included?

I know I am not going to enjoy Lewis being lapped for a second race in a row. :(

Oh well......c'mon Jenson!!

Thats car and driver, the car and driver with ballast must weigh at least 605kg, so the rest is fuel.

Edit: Yes, I changed my name to Bella =P

I changed my name to Bella =P

I think we all should. ;)

I fucking love that the BBC have gone back to the old F1 Theme tune (Fleetwood Mac)

It still gives me goosebumps when I hear it and reminds me of watching races with my Dad when I was a kid :)

Enjoy the race people.

I think we all should. ;)

ha! In that case, I'll be expecting royalties :)

Not if we all have plastic surgery, and then look like you as well.

I'm, dibsing any social benefits that you may be allowed. ;)

Predictions?

1. Barrichello
   
2. Button
   
3. Massa
   

Thats funny!

My predictions didn't last one lap!

HOLY JEEBUS!! C'mon Kova Lewis!!

Lap 37: Felipe Massa and Kimi Raikkonen might be on the same strategy in their Ferraris, but the Brazilian is currently three-10ths of a second faster a lap than his team-mate. Nothing wrong with the cars, say Ferrari, though there is a suspicion Raikkonen is not getting the most out of his Kers. Lewis Hamilton - champion last year - has just been lapped. Ouch.

Hamilton lapped again! Isn't that 3 times in 3 races!

Go on, rub it in.

Turkish GP 2009

Jenson 1st =D
Webber 2nd

Vettel 3rd

Rubens - retired =[
how he dropped from 3rd place to 17th is beyond me..!

Was the anti stall system no?

Poor slip from Vettel so early on, but Button had the pressure on from the line.
Fair race, nice!

+1

Rubens had technical trouble, he'd lost 7t gear and think they pulled him to save the gearbox/engine.

Good race tho. Gonna be fucking amazing if a British driver can win the British GP 2 years in a row, al be it different drivers!

Silverstone is going to be immense!
Fantstic from Button.
And I do love that he cries because he's won. That is so British. Foreigners cry when they lose.
And the thanks he gives his team is so heartfelt - the man is a proper sportsman.

I heard that too but it showed that Rubens was using 7th later in the race, he was about to be lapped by Jenson before he was called in, they probably just didn't want to have to explain that.

Go on, rub it in.

Did you see Piquet taking Hamilton on the outside? Then holding a nice drift as he passed =P

In protest and principle, I refuse to be part of the race today... the constructor standings make me cry!

Apparently they selected too short a gear for 7th in the Brawns, the wind direction changed from a headwind to a tailwind along the main straight which buggered up their calculations.

In other news, we may be seeing Team Lotus back in F1 next year.
