F1 » Brawn helps Button to strategic win in Barcelona

another parade. *yawn* Vettel getting stuck behind FM for so long shows that the overtaking is still too hard. In the US coverage, I missed how Webber managed to pass both Massa and Vettel. A surprise and still a mystery. Ferrari: great strides on the car, but a p*ss poor race effort by the team. Merc/Mac: Hammy had his hands full. Would have liked to see him up front, scrapping. The 3-stop for RB seemed a concerted play by the team to hand the race to Button. A shame. Maybe after Button has a more comfortable WDC lead, they'll let the two Brawn drivers race each other. Had Ferrari pulled such a move last year, everyone would have moaned. Oh, wait... They did!

F1 » Barcelona to face sanctions as F1 race row erupts again?

Let me get this straight. A man paints his face black and points at a steering wheel and this is viewed as a HEINOUS act? Seriously? Have we become maybe just a bit too sensitive? Has the man called for violence against any of the racers? Has the crowd called for violence? Not as far as I am aware. Suppose a fan shaves his head and makes fun of Rubens Barichello's baldness. Would that be HEINOUS too? Or would that just be one fan with bad taste? What if someone put on a big nose and made fun of Kubica? Is it only skin color that we must pretend not to notice? This is surreal. Please, no personal attacks. I just don't understand the reaction here.

F1 » Rosberg top again as Williams makes 'definite progress'

Same old story. Williams is fast in practice, fades a little in qualifying, and goes backwards during the race, for a finish of p13 and p16. I would love to see Nico on the podium... but i have little confidence that it will happen soon.
