Raikkonen drove well until the car failed. Alonso drove well all afternoon. Schumacher drove well to recover from last to 5th. But Webber drove well in a car that isn't really meant to drive well. He matched the pace of Kimi and Alonso and looked on for (probably) even better because he had a heavier car. A cracker of a race.

I think Schumi has to be my "driver of the day" for coming through from the back of the grid to finish 5th! What an amazing drive by the best driver in the world! Alonso will be the best when he has won more World Championships than Michael has. Schumacher would have won easily today if he had started anywhere near the front of the grid. I personally can't see Alonso being caught now, his car is very reliable indeed. I can't believe that he really wants to go to McLaren, they haven't had a reliable car for years now! It was nice for Barrichello to get a good result today, and great that he beat Button. Sour grapes?

Schumacher deserved to go to the back of the grid after playing dirty. Its high time he got what was coming to him for all the tricks he has played over the years. A case of sour grapes I think as this proves Alonso is the best. Excellent result again for Alonso. Schumacher deserved to go to the back of the grid after playing dirty.
