No question Dean the CART races at Road America we're so much fun I could easily do that all over again.

Australia wasn't a very good start kind of a snoozer. Anytime you can guess the first two finishing positions weeks before the race you have a problem.

But it looks like a great group of Rookies.

Man I hope someone slips between the Arrows Sunday.Ferraris' stops suck balls though so that's no help. Come on Williams.

Wow, what a race! Red Bull can stop whining about dominance now and just focus on getting their car right.

The Vettel win and Raikkonen ending up in fourth after an early pit for a new left rear makes 2015 seem a littLe more exciting? Great job from the boys at Ferrari they have pulled one out of the fire.

The question still remains about were and when the rest of the field will find the race pace? Pathetically the number of lapped cars ( well over a minute) tells a worrisome story about the start of this season. I'm still impressed by this years outstanding rookie crop.

It seems like years since we've heard the German and Italian National anthems played together for the winner? I couldn't help thinking that it might have been thoughtful and a great public relations moment if Sebastian Vettel had given his mentor Michael Schumacher at least a shout out for Michael's guidance on his seemingly successful move to Ferrari? On the other hand it looks like another bummer move for Fernando Alonso at least for now as neither entry finished todays event.

I've now got a reason to be a Ferrari team fan.
VETTEL, VETTEL, VETTEL........

I'm sure he's glad to have gotten out before the bickering with Re-NO,,,, go.
It's good to see a contender at the top and make it a fight. Poor Nico sure got the screws put to him in the interview. His answers seem like a soap opera discussion. I think today's race was a confidence crusher for him.

That was a good one!

Jensen was very hesitant to tell the interviewer it was the "turbo" area that ended his race.

Funny theory, Ferrari powered car brought out the safety car.

Strange move with Benz on soft tires for Q1 and then coming up empty handed for the last stint.

And really good job by Kimi.

Over on GTPlanet they're talking about how the video games don't really give you a sense of speed, well, they try to, but someone put up this video asking if you really wanted to it to be life like.



Nope, not me.

Great race! Congrats Vet. Put that finger away please. I like you better without it.

RB shut up. Your "farm" team is smearing you with manure.

Haas must have a boner...his entry just gained a lot of promise.

BUT may end his career with his worst season ever (no fault of his).

The season now may be just that. Woohoo!

I can accept he's happy. I'd cry if I just won for Ferrari. And hell, why not, I'd probably give everyone the middle finger!

I want the instant hate!

Was cray when HAM go on the radio asking WTF.

Quote:
Mercedes explained his only remaining set of mediums were heavily used
and then,

Quote:
Rosberg was in the same situation as Hamilton but he chose to save his medium tyres for the final stint. Significantly, he took 14.6 seconds out of Vettel over the last 14 laps, at the beginning of which Hamilton was 13.9 seconds behind the Ferrari.
Is huge.

BENZ seriously fugged up.
