Anyone notice there's no drainage system in the tunnel?! Good job its in the middle of the desert!
What's the protocol when pit exit is flooded?
Yup, those five laps were amazing. Shame the other 90% of the race was dull as ditchwater.Quote:

Good race. Shame for Lewis Hamilton to have a car problem curtail his race. Sebastian Vettel did a great utterly flawless and deserves second the championship.
Great battle with Mark Webber and Jenson Button towards the end. I think one more lap and Button would have got passed the Red Bull but it was some very good defending by Webber. It was nice to see Button going for it, after all he had already won the championship, he could have just sat back and accepted third.
Nick Heidfeld, Kaumi Kobayashi and Sebastien Buemi all having good races. Kobayashi impressing again beating his far more experienced team mate, I hope Toyota give him a drive next year.
After the exciting practice and qualy and the thrilling GP2 races, the race was a bit anticlimatic for me.
It's a shame that the season ended on a low. Brazil was a good race and should've been the climax really. It's not the track that is at fault though, we've seen semi-processional races all year.
With no refuelling next year the races could get even worse, something needs to be done a.s.a.p to liven it up. Otherwise any new UK viewers gained from a second successive British champion are going to switch off.
Decent race. Bummer to see Lewis' car break - still got Kimi for 5th though (and McLaren gets Ferrari for 3rd :p ).
But what realy amazed me about this race was that flat out gorgeous circuit! Man, that place is beautiful. I wasn't a fan of Bernie's Middle East strategy at first. But this race by itself makes me have second thoughts on that. I hope this race stays around for a LONG time!
IMO Abu Dhabi and Singapore are cool, Bahrain so so.Quote:
