    Clown of the race

    Vote goes to Jenson. Managing to come off the kerb exiting the pits and taking off his front wing when hitting his teammates car. Idiot!

    Or how about BMW's lollypop man? Heidfeld would be within 3 points of Raikkonen now had that incident not happened.

    Or how about the genius that decided that the chicane would improve overtaking? Sure he wasn't racing, but should deserve some accholade nonetheless!

    Funny in my very dry sense of humour.

    It is funny because the capability of passing down the straight had nothing to do with the type of corner that preceded it, unfortunately people who are paid to do this can't see that, as it is not a problem that lies in the track - it is in the cars.

    Cataluunya was the clown of the race. Its a good track for bikes.

    But the new corner made the track even worse. However, I said after Rd. 2, that if they can't overtake in Sepang, they won't be able to do it anywhere.

    I must be honest, when was the last good race there? I think 96 maybe? Since then nothing much happens there. I'm disappointed it's contract has been extended, but I guess with such a strong following it was inevitable.

    And yes, Button was pretty clumsy. I was surprised he almost went as far as to lay the blame on Rubens when he said he wasn't given much room by Rubens! It has to be said Rubens had the upperhand of Button so far this season, which is quite surprising.

    James Allen, I don't know what race he was watching

    Button had the worst drive and maybe Alonso threw away 2nd place with his lunge outside turn 1
