BTW - the thread index shows that this thread was created well after the race. It's not going to be to dicuss qualifying.

I thought the various threads and complaints about the thread title having results was more than justified. This time, I think we each need to take a little bit of personal responsibility.

I don't know why everyone's so vehemently against this -- from how people typically react, you'd think that the people for whom the race had been spoiled were ruining things for the thread posters instead of the other way around.

Yes, it's dumb for someone who doesn't know the results to click on threads about the race immediately afterwards, but at the same time, it's not like people are being asked to endure some terrible hardship. "S-p-o-i-l-e-r" -- it's seven keystrokes, many, many less than have been expended on this thread alone talking about post etiquette.

seven keystrokes.... remember how programmers thought adding "19" to dates would be too expensive back then?

Anyway, I didn't have tickets, but I drove out to the N

SATO IS CURSED! His engine practically blows up everytime, while his teammate's is fine. He was battling for 2nd, and that part was so exciting, then "BOOM!" there goes again, near the end of the race. SUCKS! I want Sato to get the podium once, along side with Button. What is up with M. Schumacher? He always wins. That's weird!

You can say that again. He's got the heart of a kamikaze.

His gamble probably wasn't the smartest, but it made for good racing.

Sato probably should have waited, but it did make for an exciting race. Sato seems to have taken over JV's position in having the car that doesn't like to finish. I'm just glad that Button's car has been reliable. Having two cars that finish in the points race after race is why Renault is in second place.

But is there any doubt now which team has the second-fastest cars?

I think Jenson Button experience the same thing last year when BAR-Honda had a lot of reliability issues with the engine. Right now, reliability for BAR-Honda will be the key to this season and the following years, Sato and JB will be in contention for next year.
