Lewis Hamilton is impressively staying ahead of Fernando Alonso.

Thus far, no one is even close to Kimi in the Ferrari.

Great win by Kimi. He even lapped teammate Felipe Massa. McLaren second and third but never a threat to Kimi.

yeah, I think Kimi and Alonso will dominate this year, and Hamilton will learn a lot and become more of a skilful driver

overall, a cool race!

and that wreck with DC and Alex Wurz was crazy!

Hamilton, first reace already podium. Watch out, this kid is talent. For a first race and not being passed I think he is very talented. I will follow him closely this first year.

As for Honda they better get their damn act together. Im upset at them.


Go McLaren!!!

it appears to me that hamilton has more than enough skill. his opening pass into turn 1 exhibited that. if the mclarens hold together, they will be challenging ferrari at every race. and with bmw going faster, this season looks to have some great racing duels at the front of the pack.
it might be time for dc to think more in terms of being a team manager.

i thought this race was quite boring. KR just ran away with the whole thing. i am suprised that the McLarens didnt fall apart. Hamilton was impressive and FA was strong. Honda was a big disappointment.

I Honda but they need to either trash their whole program and rebuild from scratch or quit racing in F1 if they are going to continue this downward spiral.
