Barichello must be pissed!! I guess he only has himself to blame though.
All in all, an excellent race.

Ferrari was disappointing. Both Raikonnen and Massa ruined their races by trying too hard. They didn't really drive well tactically. Hamilton, on the other hand, was brilliant. Rosberg showed he was a future challenger and Heidfeld showed the world that BMW has race-winning potential. Bourdais did well to stay out of the carnage and had some well-timed pit stops, unfortunately, he was bumped down the classification because he car blew up with two laps to go.

What a terrible way to start the year!!! Good Job everyone 5 cars finished!!! And more than that Lewis Im-a-good-boy-and-i-love-my-father-soooo-much Hamilton won!!! At least that shows how worthless most of todays drivers are. Something must be done guys each year is worse than the last. From the top motorsport on the earth now it is just an other way to spend our time...

What a shity race! Who can put 900 HP in a 600 kg car and no traction control? Offcourse the first car on the grid, that didint had to overtake anyone else at high speeds, won....but the rest? Every time someone tried to overtake another car, something bad happened....
This is not a competition anymore, its just a way to show of and spend useless money. PATHETIC
I propose these rules and regulations for the 2009 season:
Every car should signal when overtaking,
All races to be held during the night,
No more pit stops,
No front or back spoiler, because that reduces the probability of an accident, and FIA cant have a clean race , because no one will watch,
The final race of the season should be held at Pikes Peak Hill,
No truck or plane transport between countries, F1 cars should be driven on road from race to race.

I disagree tremendously.
1. F1 cars had 1500 hp, and no TC, and did well. These drivers are total N00bs
2. Not every pass attempt killed a car.... read Kimi's first few laps, and others doing well like Sato.
3. What do you think F1 is.... the pinical of motorsport should be just that. 2009 is going to be visually slower, which is stupid.
4. You want more competition, watch LMS, ALMS, FIA GT etc.

Huh? They are there to prevent accidents.
No truck or plane transport between countries, F1 cars should be driven on road from race to race.

Is this supposed to be funny? I'm not sure you can drive across water.

Yeah, I kinda had the stupid ideea that the rear spoiler increases air flow under the body, which promotes downforce at the rear of the car , and the front wing creates downforce that enhances the grip of the front tires, while also optimizing (or minimizing disturbance to) the flow of air to the rest of the car which makes the car more stable , therefor more controllable and the risk of an accident is reduced. But who knows, maybe there on the cars just to display big sponsor adds.
And , notice how I said no TRUCK and PLANE , I didint said anything about boats
