Kubica back...but in Rally

It appears that he was at this Ford test facility and drove: http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/102019 but the real news here is this guy can apparently drive!...given the he almost died after the crash and had major nerve damage to right arm, it is a testiment to his determination to even attempt rallying again...hats off to U Robert...U R one of the best!

Later, Ken

Where is Ken to argue that they're better than that? Or maybe this is his silent resignation that they do indeed suck?

Big surprise in Q2. Vettel out. So is Schumi. McLaren looks really strong.

Suck U say...well, it looks like this is another time to eat (try some Grey Poupon and ketchup...it goes down easier that way) those words but, with my new skin, I am letting it go...not!...Banzai...Banzai!!

Later, Ken

Edit/Update: Maldenado, our crash boy, has been penalized three positions for impeding Rosburg in Q1...at least he is behind Perez but certainly capable to plowing into his rear if he gets the chance!

Spa:Crash boys at it again!

After all is said and done, the finger of blaime for the carnage at the start will not be Madenado but rather the other crash boy, Grojean...this is the same sh#*t he pulled at Monaco...I dont NO what can B done with these two...perhaps allow two more dumb moves then: take the left one and if repeated the right goes and they can become falsetto singers
My boys got screwed...perhaps at Monza, they will catch a break.

Later, Ken

Update: It seems our other crash boy did not get off this weekend either: http://www.pitpass.com/47165-Maldona...alty-for-Monza ...I wonder if he, no, Williams gets the message now?!

Quite the drive by Jenson, wasn't it? The guy gets the most out of his tires. Superb drive by Seb up to second, although the Red Bulls didn't seem on form all weekend. I was very sad to see Schumi lose 6th gear and get passed by Kimi as he was having a stellar run.

The main thing is that Alonso did not get any points, so the championship has tightened up a bit. That accident that Grosjean caused was really dramatic, what with the way he flew over Alonso. I am glad Alonso was not hurt. I may not like the guy, but I don't want to see him or anyone else get hurt. I just want his engine to lose power and see him fight for 15th place, that's all. And, Grosjean gets a one race ban for his move at the beginning of the race. On to Monza next week. Should be great action like at Spa.

Grosjean and Maldonado deserve to either sit out some races, or be forced to drive the HRT's and Marussia's so that they won't harm anyone on the grid.

damn, grosjean effed up the whole race. i almost didnt want to want the rest of the race after that. i wouldn't mind to see crashdonado and grojean sit out the rest of the season so they don't screw up anyone else's race for the championship.

Now was this ban to keep the other drivers safe or so that no Ferrari fans physically hurts grosjean?

as much as grosjean and maldenado crash, its no more then massa and hamilton tied wheels last year. i think it was every race they had an "incident". kobay is no angel of safety either
