Great drive from Mark from 18th on the grid, the three sets of new option tyres made the a difference..

So I tried to nap a bit before the race, set my alarm to 1:30 pm instead of am and forgot to set my dvr. So annoyed right now

I am still all pumped up after last night.
What a great race and a super group to share it with.
I am going to watch it again with my son after church today - he has not seen it.
I am excited to watch it again.

Just read through the comments here guys. What a freaking race! Too bad I missed this one live. Staying up til 5:00 & working today was not in the cards unfortunately. I was shocked to see Webber got a podium, can't wait to watch the whole race on DVR later.

What a race! I think the best since Silverstone 2008 or Suzuka 2005!
As much as I am a Hamilton fan, I have to give my vote for driver of the day to Webber. 18th at the start, 17th after the first round of stops and a podium by the finish? That's balls-out driving, even if he is in a Red Bull.
If anyone has a copy they are willing to upload on the internetz, please let me know. Thank you

I've watched the race twice now, once on SPEED HD and once on BBC's online feed, and I definitely prefer the BBC's commentary over SPEED's. There's a lot of small details that the SPEED commentators have no clue about and leave you naive to unfortunately...such as why Button pitted first before Hamilton for starters.

I just watched the race again with my son.
Just about as exciting the second time around.
BBC totally wastes SPEED. In fact, it was somewhat embarrassing to see how lost the SPEED commentators were after watching the BBC broadcast.
They simply do not have the access.

What's the best way to get BBC? Is it in real-time with speed ?

I agree. I rewatched the SPEED one, they are a horrible bunch of commentators.
