Agreed. That was one hell of an ugly move.

Bit of a dull race apart from the run away wheel and naughty Schumacher, never the less well done Weber.

Yippee.....4 wins for Webber now this season and he leads the drivers champ.

Schumacher trying to kill his old teamate.

Vettel, another pole position and no race win. What a shoddy record.

I've always been a staunch defender of Schumacher, but that was totally undefendable!

Indeed, and I hear this morning that he has formally apologised for the move, saying it was over the top. Perhaps he meant 'over the hill'?

(Back to staunch defending...)

OK, he's apologised, let's move on! Let's not focus on the bad, remember that win in '99 in the rain, that was phenomenal...

When he was good, he was very very good.

But when he was bad, he was 'orrid!!

He's been man enough to apologise, so that's good.

I'm starting to get a little worried about Jensen. He seems a little too dependent on a good car or set up. He's underperforming compared with last year.

I think all drivers are dependant on a good car or set up. At this level the driving standards are pretty much neck and neck except for the odd brain fade. The cars and set ups are one of the major deciding factors when a wing adjustment of a few mm could mean the difference between pole position and 2nd or 3rd row on the grid.

If Jensen's team is getting it wrong then he should be pretty miffed with them.

The FIA have finally got their act together and are hauling in Ferrari in on the 8th Sep over the team orders incident.

Possibly, but Hamilton seems to be doing a lot better with the same equipment. Mind you, Hamilton has been with McLaren longer, so Jensen may still be feeling his way into the set up at the team.

I gotta admit, Barrichello getting past Schumacher actually made me yell "Yeah!" at the screen. Barrichello's luck often seems quite bad and I was expecting him to either not manage an overtake or have an off-track adventure.

For a split-second, when Schumi forced him over towards the wall, I sort of said 'yeah, here it comes'....and then Rubens passes him anyway.

Great driving, and made the race for me. Judging by his mood in the post-race, I'm guessing it made the season for Rubens.
