Looked like a stroll in the park for TGF, and another 10 second penalty ruins the day of one of his rivals? Wonder if there is any connections? Good to see Trulli establishing himself as the best driver in the "best of the rest" category. Maybe its time Jordan realise that HHF just isnt up to the job anymore

Anyone know, did Alonso retire, or just get miles behind

*yaaaaaaaaawn*
Not only was it a pretty dull race (credit to Eddie Irvine for getting a bit of racing action in there), James Allen also bored me half to death with his ridiculous and completely unfounded speculation ("Rubens might be going two-stop!" Pardon?). I'm glad to see Ralf finally going ahead of that waste of space Barrichello in the championship. |

Great...the start of a new conspiracy?
Oh, by the way, Ralf told his team personnels to keep a very close lookout for any violations by any team (Mclaren and Ferrari) and to appeal whenever possible...now...i wonder who it is that coughed on the Mclarens... And it wasnt really a bore towards the end when you see Rubens and David fighting it out... |

Ralfs Girl, do i sense sour grapes?
A solid win for Michael, but Montoya really impressed me today. He clearly outdrove Ralfie, and deserved more than a DNF. Rubino too was good, and DC determined his own destiny. P.S RT you took the words right out of my mouth. |

I agree the race was pretty boring, it was a big shame that Montoya retired, he had Ralf well beaten and could perhaps have rattled TGF towards the end. As it turned out, the end result was pretty disappointing. It would have been better if the brothers had ended up in the reverse order, and if DC hadn't had that wretched stop and go penalty! He was pretty quick out there today, but this is probably it for the championship then. |

R - Don't listen to the Norwegian commentry if you can help it. (They don't have a clue).
Try the BBC Five live commentry (693 MW) if you have a good radio. (I can get it in Stavanger). Otherwise they have previously sent the five live commentry on NRK "altid nyheter" radio. (Haven't heard it this year tho'. If the transmition rights allow, they have a live stream on the internet. |

I'm just going to make a little announcement - ALL OVER RED ROVER. No one will touch Michael this year. He is too fast and too consistent.
Can someone please tell me how good David Coulthard is? I almost forgot after the 53rd time James Allen and Martin Brundle told me. Drives of the day (in order)- Eddie Irvine JPM Nick Heidfeld Michael Schumacher Luciano Burti Jarno Trulli |

It has to be said that race was rubbish. Shame Juan wasn't on a one stopper - could have made things differently..
I think that is the fourth race that JPM has led this year (Brazil, Austria, Nurburgring, Magny Cours) |

This race was too boring for me to even bother watching all of it. I had to go to a historics race where I saw a local man in a Porsche 911 EVO lap the entire field on his way to a very easy victory - and saw a bunch of Atlantic Historics lapping at 1.23, or well ahead of the modern FFords which lap at 1.29 ...
And nobody was tattling, cheating, trying to kill anyone, or under team orders. Altogether a lot more fun than Formula One. I did hear that Mama Schumacher reprimanded Big Brother and told him not to try to kill his younger brother again. I hope he listened but I don't think I'll bet on it. |

Thi swas th efirst time that I switched the TV off, let teh VCR run, and went to bed half way through. What should have been a great race was spoilt by the Mclaren foul-ups, and the second set of Michelins on Ralf's car.
However, we can't blame TGF, because he drove a faultless race. |

Yes Montoya has worked out how not to crash. He just drives within himself like Button did. The last two results he has had basically nothing to do, except coast to the finish line. That is not the way to reignite the sport as some ppl are hoping for. Although i think he will come good once he realises that winning gran prixs are more important than getting minor points for Frank.

The boredom factor of this race was right up there with Nurburgring and good old Barcelona (the last 4 yrs). Anyone who finds the highlight of the race DC's 10 second penalty or as being the pivotal moment needs their head read. Try watching the CART race from cleveland and compare the difference in wheel to wheel racing and the lead changing about 10 times

i agree with the lot of you, fairly boring race last night and I am sick of losing one of the main drivers because of an engine stall / TC fault etc. Sucks big ones when you have drunk half a gallon of coffee staying up all night just so you can see it. then we loose someone without even making the start?
AJ ( the real one ) made this comment during the telecast last night and I agree with him totally. Did enjoy the jag's performance last night . Excellent |

I have to admit, Queensland played great though I gave up and I switched to Hornblower after the first 15 mins The Blues were giving me a good case of them. Alfie played great looking at the highlights and you guys kicked our ass!!! God that was hard! |
