Onya Webber!

Bet he's glad to have that monkey off his back - not even his typical
bad luck could stop him today!

I was pleased for Webber. Had the Aussies won he cricket it might have
been a bit overbearing yesterday but fortunately our boys comfortably
fended your guys off

Great to see a guy on top form and this was truly Webber's day, richly
deserved.

Cheers
Tony

I agree, Mark is one of the few (mabe the only one?) characters left
in F1 these days (esp. since Coulthard made his early exit). I hope
there's more to come for Webber this season.

I couldn't believe it when he was handed the drive through for that
early-on tussle with Barrichello, but in the end it made his win all
the sweeter.

Cheers,

Uwe

You do know Webber actually banged into Barrichello during that 'tussle'
by driving sideways into him. Luckily his wheel only hit the Brawn
sidepod. If that had been wheel against wheel I'd hate to think what
might have happened.

As for Barrichello whinging about strategy losing him the race. He had
no chance of winning once he got stuck behind Massa, and who's fault was
that? His own for not getting far enough ahead in the first place.
However, I think what really ****ed him off was the fact that button
still beat him.

Yeah, poor old Rubens is funny this year. But I do believe that the fuel
rig stuff up at his second pit was as obvious an "accidently on purpose"
that I've seen before - it looked well rehearsed. And then to top it off
they made sure Jenson got ahead on the last stop! LOL. He'll need a straight
jacket soon!

Brawn are in serious damage control and are in big trouble - the
improvements they make for the next race had better be real good - the lack
of budget factor may kill them.
