Not sure. I still think the Ferrari. Most of the time the tyres suited the Macs more, but the pace of Michael and Rubens was impressive.

I think Rubens would have won...

I forgot to say: Jos was on a NO stop strategy..........

The Michelins were clearly superior in the full wet, whereas the semi-wet favoured the Bridgestones to such a strong degree that Fisi was in front in a Jordan! Seriously - credit to Jordan and Fisi but the gulf between the tyres was huge at times (favouring first one then the other).

Alsonso was brilliant, his team let his down badly - what was that all about with the slick tyres!? And yes, he should have had very strong guidance about cooling it coming through they yellow flags - he was lucky not to hurt himself more badly or another driver or marshall. had he scraped through the wreckage he was actually very well placed (I think he may have been fuelled to end? Can't recall - so much going on).

I was the right decision to stop the race - it was within the rules anyway-beyond three quarter distance so it wasn't necessary to restart the race, nor was it really worth it either, only 8 drivers left, had fisi's car stil caught fire, only 7 drivers left, if anyone else crashed after restarting they still would have scored at least 2 points anyway so why restarting? as if there had'nt been enough action/drama/accidents/potential danger for 1 grand prix!

Still imagine 20 more laps of it!!! I wonder if anyone would have finished...it's my bet JV would have won I think he was fueled to the end!

Forgetting what happened at turn 3 (which the unlucky drivers that got caught seemed to have no control over) a few drivers stood out as the real class of the field when the track was at its most treacherous: Kimi, Montoya, Alonso and (obviously) M Schumacher. The big loser for me was Ralf. Cliched as it is to bash this guy guy, he was nothing short of pathetic in the early stages.
