I think the start will be the two McL boys and Michael will not have the race pace and hold up the pack....
RB has got issues with the rear of the car and so do Ferrari...down force!
The red team will have an entire new car in three races ....unheard of to build a entire new car within four race of the start of a year...never have I seen that before.

Haven't watched the race yet. I see Red on the podium! Interesting interview; the relaxed look. Perez in the top 10. I think if he smoothed out his driving some he'll get quicker.
Do you think Massa is just peeved and showing distaste or can't get a grip on the new chassis?
Vettel isn't happy.

Yep, that's what I said!
I couldn't be happier. My favorite F1 guy taking a lesser car to victory. Just WOW! Doesn't get much better than that!
And what a performance by Perez!!! Go Sergio!
Sauber leaving RB, McLaren and Mercedes in the dust. Too much!
That was among the most awesome races ever.
Imagine Kimmi coming back after a two year absence and giving Lotus such a finish, even posting fastest laps toward the end of the race. Just incredible.
I loved it.

Holy smokes! They are wasting no time. I guess Masa is going to be out on his butt. But there might be an opening for a guy with his job description at Sauber!
Tim.... did you get my pm?

I don't think any of the teams knows where they stand yet. I believe the learning curve will shake it up a bit when they compete on a dry track. Always pulling for Ferrari but with Massa doing so poorly it will be at least another year before they could clinch both drivers AND constructors.
