It seems there will be lots of new parts comming for that race, so we might see a new change in the balance of powers. *rawr*

Just watched a Ferrari go around the circuit. Quite high walls/fence, bit like driving in a tunnel! Looks quite wide in places, and the bridge is a novelty. They've put the pole position back where it was originally. Should be fun.

Alonso in the garage, rear-wing damage. Shame for the home crowd.

Found that probably the most boring race (in terms of actual racing) I have ever seen.

It is odd, it didn't really get going. The fairly wide track, and the 'urban' style give it a unique look. I guess the drivers din't know what to do with it yet. Maybe next year.

Watching F1 cars go around any track is far from boring for me.

I know what you mean Tex, I can happily watch practice sessions without being bored. I think all the teams were expecting a safety car, and were all over cautious on their strategies.
