Formula 1 - 2012 season
It should be exciting if Renault still have their legendary starting performance.
Really good qualifying session. Love some of the new camera stuff - the helmet-cam, for instance; looks amazing on a huge projector screen 
Alonso's petulant exit from the car was priceless - really thought he'd punch somebody....

He'll be like a coiled spring, fireworks at the start tomorrow
Watched it live this morning, delighted to see Red Bull well beaten, I know there's a long way to go but it's a good start I guess. 
Didn't expect to see Ferrari perform so badly, I knew they had concerns, now I see why. I wouldn't want to be in Domenicali's shoes right now.
Pretty car = fast car
Via in-car, the McLaren looks very impressive: beautifully stable under braking, very well balanced through the corner, drivers need almost no steering correction, and they're able to jump on the power nice and early 
"Pretty car..."
"Pretty car..."
Compared to the Ferrari F2012, that red digger probably has more chance of catching the MP4-27s.
If Crofty stopped shouting he might get the drivers names correct 
I was going to post a comment on here last week about how I used to watch F1 when it was actually racing and not just a procession decided by who's first after the first corner, mechanical failures and pitstops - I wondered how many people actually overtook for a lead last season. This morning I wake up and see the results & write-up - shocker! (I won't say anything just in-case people haven't...)

I quite like his breathless excitement: reminds me of Murray
And he does at least know how to pronounce Vettel!
Great race to start the season - full of incident, some real surprises and a superb result

It's going to be hard to avoid the result you surf the web, watch the news or listen to the radio! Try to catch it live on RTL if you can ... I saw it for free on satellite TV, but I think the live feed on their web-site also works (silly me forgot to check it out to see if was geolocked ... http://www.rtl.de/formel1/livestream/).

Four 'Weltmeisters' occupy positions in the first six on the grid. (1st, 2nd, 4th and 6th.)
It would be very unusual for all six World Champions to qualify in all of the top six grid positions.
And surprising / unexpected for Romain Grossjean to outqualify four of them including the incumbent ;)
