yeah, i'm checking the news now. Rubens is disqualified. so yay for Kimi!

my sister told me that Robert Kubica looked like Shia LeBouf! yeah, he was unlucky but still, Nick made it to the podium! i'm not a Lewis fan either but yes, he's really good. HAHAHA! it was nice seeing Ron Dennis smile...for a change.

With all the respect to Robert I think Shia is better looking than Robert.

I hope Malaysia will be as exciting as Australian GP.

i'm sure it will be. Malaysia is another hot race and i can't believe we get it this weekend already!

what were your favorite moments from the race?

As always - the start, it's one of the most exciting moments in every race. Then I really enjoyed Heikki vs Fernando towards the end of the race. Yours?

Oh, and I think it was really cute how Nico and Lewis hugged each other after the race.

yup, Lewis & Nico are good friends back from their karting days. its a rare moment so it was good that they were on the podium together.

fave moments? the start, when Kimi overtook Rubens & Heikki but only to spin overtaking Heikki, the pit crew scare, Tim Glock's scary accident and all the crashes!

Actually, I think it's more the McLaren cars that were incredible instead of Lewis himself. I mean, yes, he seems to be doing pretty good without TC, but so does Heikki. You couldn't even tell that they didn't have TC!

I know, right? Ron Dennis was really cheerful! Well, he had plenty of reason to be happy. McLaren scored a lot of points while Ferrari scored only one.

Now, who drove really brilliantly, IMO, was Alonso! He was definitely the most entertaining driver to watch.

I didn't think about it previously, but it seems you're right.

He has incredible car control, doesn't he? I hope Renault can improve the car with the course of the season, because I would really like to see Fernando winning with Renault again.

To be honest, I didn't expect McLaren to be so competitive this year...

i'm not expecting Mclaren to be competitive this year. but i'm seriously rooting for BMW this year to be out there racing with Ferrari, Mclaren & Renault.

i wasn't able to really see how Alonso drove in Australia but he stayed out of trouble. Kimi had the most problem with TC, tsk, tsk.

bring on Malaysia!

Is it raining in Malaysia now? I've checked the weather and there's a big chance of rain - can you imagine rain-hit race without TC?

OMG! a rain-infested race plus zero TC? lots of crashes!!!

we're a bit near Malaysia and its pretty hot here. if there's a chance of rain, it might be a first (?) for Malaysia.

A second one. Here's some footage from 2001 in Malaysia when it rained: YouTube - Malaysia 2001 Regenchaos Premiere Jacques Schulz

I think I'm even more excited than I was before Australia.

Yeah, if Ferrari wasn't so unlucky I think they would've done better than McLaren. But we'll have to wait for Malaysia to know for sure which team is really on top

I'm dying to see a race in the wet without TC! There will be like, 3 cars crossing the finish line

Speaking of updating, do you guys play any Formula 1 game for PC? 'Cause I need to download the update for the 2008 season, but I don't know if there is any available yet.
