Yeah, if you watched the front runners the entire race. For me, watching
Filipe Massa charging around over the kerbs from the onboard view was
endlessly entertaining, seeing Heidfeld, Trulli and Button ahead all taking
different lines, especially through Alta.

Its the first time I bought the Sky digital package for 12.00 to
watch the race.
The coverage is brilliant, but what a ***race.. Soooo boring !!!

Yes, it looks like they are trying to get a slice of the Nascar market  ;-)

Yep.....Schumaker is for sure in a different league... and the 'Rarri are at
the moment the best out there.....and it does'nt make for very exciting
viewing when you know the outcome before you turn the TV on.......

Yeah, I'd like to have a go at Sky's package. Except that I'm not
allowed a satellite dish on my house...

What I noticed is that RS outqualified JPM and then crushed him in the race.
That's three races in a row he's out performed JPM, and RS also qualified
better than him in Australia. But.......the next time JPM happens to finish
ahead of RS, I'm sure we'll hear how good he is over and over.

I hit fast forward on my Tivo on lap two and went all the way to the
end and never saw a thing worth watching in real time.

I am a big Ferrari fan but where there's no competition, there's no
fun...

No arguments here - fell asleep after 15 laps.  Watching the replay, I
thought it was amusing that Martin Brundle (I think) said something about
the rental car on the way to the track being his "drive of the day"

James: "Quickly time, Martin, for you to give your views on the driver of
the day. Who's it going to be?"
Martin: "It's," (sighs) "it's not been a thrilling race has it? Blundell was
good in the rent-a-car on the way in this morning."

JPM had a rain setup on the car, as well, 'cept for Oz, JPM has been in a
better position then RS when he was taken out. RS is a more consistant
driver at the moment, but JPM is the faster of the two.

There's always excuses for Montoya.

JPM hasn't been taken out yet this year. He's taken himself out with
mistakes.

That's the myth that some want us to believe. There are no facts that
support that Montoya has been the faster driver over RS the past 21 races as
teammates. RS has done better in qualifying, and better in the races. Those
are the facts. This year they've split the qualifying, and Ralf has had much
better race results. The only time JPM has done better than RS was at the
end of last year when the championship was decided and RS was admittedly
distracted by the birth of his son and the WTC bombings.
