    Can it get any worst?

    Hamilton demoted to the back

    World Champion Lewis Hamilton will be starting the season-opening Australian Grand Prix 20th and last on the grid following a gearbox change for his McLaren-Mercedes. The British driver just scraped through to the second phase of qualifying as the part began to fail, before remaining in the garage for the remainder of the session.

    McLaren as of this time is off the pace anyway.... More than 1/2 of the cars are faster than them in qualifying....

    Ferrari is in a better position but they're still near the middle of the pack....

    Lucky Lewis Hamilton. With all the casualties he still was able to get a 4th after a disaster weekend. Congratulations to Brawn GP. One-Two for a new team!

    Ferrari's outing sucks big time!!! Outperformed by LH even starting at the back of the field. Boy oh Boy Ferrari no longer has the domination it once has. Congrats to the new F1 domination in the making RBGP.

    I wonder what those executives at Honda are thinking now. I hope they don't commit hara-kiri. Brawn GP will go down into GP legends! Ross finally has a name for himself, out of the shadow of Ferrari-Schumacher. Congrats to Toyota-Trulli for a podium finish, despite starting from the rear and overtaking Hamilton.

    Probably not. While the Brawn GP was all good, Honda's reason for getting out was purely financial. Competing in F1 costs money and they want to preserve that... While wins like this attract sponsors, siguro they feel its just better to keep the cash.

    Hamilton gains a position courtesy of Toyota...again. Vettel penalised.

    Trulli loses Toyota podium

    Following a stewards' inquiry, Jarno Trulli has been stripped of his podium finish in the Australian Grand Prix.

    The FIA officials ruled that the Toyota driver overtook Lewis Hamilton under the safety car, after losing third position to the world champion by running off the track.

    Italian Trulli received a 25 second time penalty, dropping him out of the points. McLaren's Hamilton was promoted to third, with Sebastien Bourdais joining the points-paying positions.

    In another stewards' decision, Sebastian Vettel will be demoted ten places down the Malaysian Grand Prix grid in one week, and pay a $50,000 fine to the FIA.

    The German was penalised not for his late collision with Robert Kubica, but for failing to pull his damaged Red Bull to the side of the track when requested.

    its funny how this UK guy explains the KERS, he says "if you know kitt from knight rider, he has a turbo boost every now and then michel knight use to jump the car.its not really a turbo but its a electrical boost or charge that gives it extra trq." i guess kitt is way beyond its time lol

    wow that was a strange finish, Vettel/Kubica, A+ for Brawn PG team and Button wow 1st & 2nd... yeah 1st race of the season Toyota 3rd JT from last grid... This may be Button's year maybe his going to get his long awaiting championship title if they do this every race

    Nice race.

    Button dominating the race.
    Barrichello dropping to 6 (?) place after a bad start from P2.
    Hamilton from the back to the grid became lucky with Trulli. Upgraded to 3rd from 4th.

    Hindi na raw by points kundi by number of wins para maging Champ.

    ^^^ kahapon ko lang nabalitaan ang tungkol sa number of wins. medyo naguguluhan pa ako.

    Prefer ko na points ang gamitin not wins.

    I'm glad Button got his well deserved pole & win.

    Is it just me or these new cars are faster than those of last year?

    noticed too when i watched the replay late last night. speed talaga lalo na pagdating sa circuits na hi speed and maraming overtaking possibilities.
