Well done Taku

[Mifune]

that’s what i like about Sato, for all the condescending "crashanese" garbage that folk say about him, he is at least guaranteed to knock your socks off once or twice every season.
plently of drivers in the field who dont even do that much.

That pass on Alonso proved to me Taku is a real racer! Well done!

I think that Taku is a reformed driver and he has already impressed, in his second hand Honda, in every race this year. I give the guy credit where he deserves.

Taku drove a great race. However, was I the only person that noticed that he pitted before the pits were open on the final safety car period. I may have got my timings wrong in such a bizarre race but am almost certain he did the same as Rosberg and Alonso had done earlier.

Yep. It looked the same to me too. But maybe he entered the pitlane before the SC was officially deployed? I remember that right after the start of the SC period camera showed Sato, who already was in the pits and mechanics were working.

Great overtaking manouvre!

Not the first time he's defeated a proven WDC!

He overtook Schumi in Suzuka in 2004, IIRC!

Oh, how the tables have turned. In the close season, anyone who predicted Taku would have the upper hand over Davidson was immediately added to your ignore list.

I wonder what went through Alonso's head at that moment - in Spanish ! :

Mierdaaaa!!

Takuma Sato was great today. I wonder what happened to that poster who last year insisted that Anthony was going to beat Sato this year? That claim was a joke...

I was absolutely SHOUTING at my TV when Sato made his EPIC pass of the reigning world champion. I think my neighbors called the police.

What an incredible race .
