    That's the problem with innovation.
    Until someone comes up with a different NEW idea theere aren't rules or discussions on whether it's OK or not.
    So any rules have to grow as the innovators spot the gaps

    or in more common terms, law making follows practice....
    but I am still not going to watch, far too early.

    tis a shame... i expect it will be one of the more entertaining dry races in recent memory. the cars don't look to be as stable as they have in the past, but they are just as fast, and look like they ran run nose to tail a lot better. i expect it to be great.

    After Q2, I am a believer.....I am going to jump on the Brawn bandwagon now....wow....

    But the margin the cars are now at is amazingly small....all the teams are so close.....I think the race will be pretty good....and for once really going to be a lottery....

    Brawn GP was just groundbreaking today. Is it Button's first pole, btw? I think it is.
    What puzzles me is how did the bookmakers know that he will be on P1? Huh..
    I now wish them a title in WCC.

    My first observation was the cars don't look all that bad once on the move.
    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    I have noticed that too. After all, who cares about their look after such a session?

    Hami has vowed to drive an 'attacking race'....so I guess he'll be holding up the Toyota's.

    Agreed, I was hardly awake but it was greatly entertaining. And I must say that the BBC did a cracking job covering it.
