Kimi just isn't confident in the rain in that car! He's going backwards.

I hope The Wunderkind will win [-o<

The Red Bulls really are quick in the wet, aren't they?

Great result for Vettel, for Webber and for Red Bull... Well done =D> =D> =D>

Good job from the Maccas too with their development parts. Would have been better if Hamilton hadn't spun a few times!

Bad strategy by Brawn, But it seems that the REd Bulls were too fast for them anyway... Great Job on their part.

Great drives by RBR, BGP, and Buemi.

Have to say been a bit disappointed with Bourdais. At first one coulda speculated on equipment, but given Buemi's drive...

great drive by heikki today, kept it together and outscored hamilton, buemi looked handy in the wet

bourdais i think it's clear, needs to lose his drive if he doesn't do something in bahrain

Gotta ask...where the heck is EJ? Why is Gascoyne doing EJ's job?

That RedBull chassis is without a doubt the best Wet Weather racer out there and by a country mile.

Without the DDD's I'd say that Newey's design would have cleaned up so far.

They are definitely a force this year - with all the development races going on we will see a very good battle for the championships.

Disappointed with Williams again. Kazuki like Piquet is proving why he shouldn't be in F1.

I'm guessing at home and 'cos Gazza is better :D

Good race today. Bad calls by Williams caused their demise. Glad to see RBR finally getting the win they so deserve! Both them and Brawn had a great strategy just that Red Bull was alot faster.
Some rather spectacular incidents today, caused by the spray.

There was nothing Brawn could do. The Red Bulls are simply too quick.

Formula 1 is turning into a powerboat championship i think .....

What a race , a clean victory by Vettel the swimmer . Pity for the once again unlucky Sutil .

I will go crazy if it rains again in the dry and dessert conditions of Bahrain
( just joking , do not take it literally)
Future is like walking into past......
