5th place for me...wait 'til next year!

This has been an interesting and enlightening experience.  I've followed F1 much more closely this year than in the past...and it's been a very eventful season.  Lewis Hamilton HAS to be the greatest talent in F1 since Schumacher.

In a way, it's probably a good thing that he didn't win the World Championship in his first year...how could anyone really top that?

I can't wait...last year was the most fun I've had in years!  Let's just hope  this year isn't as strange as last season...

I'm in as number 4!

That means you are no longer guaranteed a podium finish.  :P

C'mon, guys - sign up! I'll even chip in an AutoPuzzle's T-shirt or a king-sized jar of Utz Pretzels to the winner!

And a Hot Wheels car to second place.

How about an autographed picture of yours truly for third?

I'm trying to join, but I'm told that I'll need a correct password to join your league. I typed Karn, but it doesn't seem to do the trick... suggestions?

I had the same problem, until I realized it was case-sensitive.

Weird race indeed. I was patting myself on the back as of Friday, I had done my research, had a team plan, thought I'd come out of the weekend with some spending money to help stretch an early lead.....

...but it's clear that I backed the wrong prancin' pony. Now begins the annual Burrow Owls March ritual of debating when to hit the panic button and shake things up. :P Recriminations and wild accusations to follow. And like any good team owner, the only personnel that will be spared my withering scrutiny is me! :D

Things seem to be looking up for the Trackdogs this week...I've scored more points in qualifying than I did in the whole weekend at Adelaide...but the total would be equal if they'd adjust the points after the Barrichello debacle.  I understand that this might be hard to accomplish; I always enjoyed getting the results so soon after an event, but something like this was bound to happen, I guess.   So, I'd prefer waiting until the results are official before any updating of the scores.

Has anybody besides me noticed just how much Rubens looks like a dead-ringer for Kelsey Grammer?

I'm glad - that means I'm not last anymore :)

But I have gained on the others after a miserable start in Adelaide. I decided to give my team another chance in Malaysia - which proved to be a good idea. 3 points in Australia, 43 points in Malaysia... I hope to see the trend continue in Bahrain next weekend!
