I had things to do today and only just watched the highlights on the BBC F1 2009 website. Looked like an action packed race with plenty of incidents. Well done Button and Brawn GP :dance:

Well done Button for holding the last half of this season together, though I agree with a house mate that it would have been nice for Barrichello to win and keep the competition alive through to the last race. On the other hand it will be interesting to see how button treats next weekend now that he can't loose the championship.

I love the fact that it is done before the last race.

The sooner Bernie gets out of it the better - he has set up Abu Dhabi to try and make money for himself and its all going to be a non event.

At least Max Mosley will be gone PDQ - lets just hope that Jean Todt doesn't get the job.

 Hmm. choose slightly clip the bloke who your overtaking or smash headlong into pit wall, Barichello didn't exactly give him much choose.

Hamilton could at least have tried to look happy - he was on the podium unlike all but two of the other drivers but still looked downright miserable.

Well done Jenson.  It obviously meant a great deal to Ross Brawn as well.  In fact, well done to all of Brawn GP, including the guys that Mr. B acknowledged who he had to let go earlier in the season.

 :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

I heard some BS about Jenson not being a worthy champion.  Well he notched up a load of wins earlier in the season and built up a big cushion of points, then he stayed out of trouble for the second half of the season.  Nobody else's name has appeared at the top of the table all season so if that isn't the mark of a worthy winner then I don't know what is.

Your right, Hamilton did look a bit grumpy, however as he as he seemed fairly happy about all his other (few) podiums this year, id expect its becuase he reaslised that he was no longer world champion after that result (although you'd have thought he'd have got used to that about 6 months ago)
