Hamilton was being his usual "optimistic" self again~ braking late and forcing Kimi Raikkonen off the track after Raikkonen had started with a raging charge to the front. He manage to get in front of everyone but you know Hamilton, he wasn't interested in being behind someone who has stolen his Pole Position. Brilliant drive from Kimi Raikkonen! Too bad for the shunt or else you would have been in front.
Well the messy start awarded both Kubica and Alonso the "Front Runners" title as the duo peep pass the chaos that Hamilton had caused. Both Mclarens are lose on the gravel and both Ferraris going wheel to wheel behind them. I don't get how Heikki Kovalainen had managed to maintain his 3rd place though, I saw Hamilton in front of him at first but he ended up behind Heikki and had to battle with the 2 Ferraris.
Hamilton received a drive through penalty. So did Massa, I don't really get that though. I saw that it was Hamilton's fault for forcing Massa out of the track but Massa was too close to him and hitting him in the side causing him to spin. I don't think that was Massa's fault for colliding with him.
Well the most perfect race was for Alonso and Kubica. That two were brilliant. The pit-stop strategy for the Renault so perfectly timed that Kubica couldn't pass him. Kubica is as his usual self, no mistakes and no illegal deeds that would make him serve another penalty. What I'm most impressed about was how Raikkonen got rid of Nelson Piquet who was closing in on him and Kubica as they battled for 2nd place. Backing off from Kubica and letting himself more space so that he could go faster to shake off Piquet was a smart move since if he continued pursuing 2nd place Piquet would surely find the opportunity to pass both him and Kubica.
As Alonso say: "I agree"
