DRS definitely wasn't good in the last race. It's still in the early stages though, so I guess there's a few lessons still to learn about it - I think if it's still here next year, there could be a lot of much more interesting overtaking going on!

Well that was amazing when it finally got going, I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. It was good to see Schumacher showing some form and Button was awesome.

Button's drive today has elevated him to near legend status in my mind.
I don't ever remember Senna, Prost, Mansell or Schumacher driving like that to win a race from last position with only a handful of laps to go. It was stunning!

I'm amazed the race actually went the full distance in the end! I didn't see all the coverage so how come the race was allowed to go to more than 4 hours since the official start earlier in the day? (I did watch the final restart online but without sound)
Vettel looked like he'd had a right old slap in the face. Good to see someone else win a race because I was beginning to really get bored of Vettel winning all the time.

Good to see someone else win a race because I was beginning to really get bored of Vettel winning all the time. They stopped the clock during the heavy rain, so the 2 hour rule didn't apply. Thank god they did too, because that was one of the best races I've seen in years

Ah, well that was one of the best decisions they've made then if you ask me! Was one of the best things to see the smile wiped off of Vettel's face! Just proves that he isn't going to win every race even though it may appear that it's 'in the bag'!

I was gutted for Maldonado too! And Grosjean, didn't really feel he got chance to capitalise on his brilliant qualifying. Still, great result for Jenson - hope it's a sign of what's to come for the rest of the season!!

Yeah Grojean as well, and 8th 9th 10th and 11th separated by, what was it 0.1 seconds going across the finish line? That was exiting stuff ;D did you know, out of all the Australian races, only twice has the winner there not gone on to win the whole championship, so it's looking good for Jenson ;D

I really don't understand what happened in that race, but I wasn't too upset with the result! Gutted for Button, glad Vettel didn't get any points though. Still hate his attitude, it was his fault his tyre got punctured, no way he could have blamed that on Karthikeyan.

wow, what a race that was, utter carnage everywhere, and well done to Perez I was devastated for Perez when he went off - the way he was reeling in the Ferrari, he had six laps to take him with the DRS on the pit-straight. Had he not made that small mistake I'm sure he'd have won. I was disapointed for Button as well. The TV pictures really don't convey just how slow that HRT is, and I think the other drivers really struggle to predict where they're going to be.

oh yeah im sure he'd have won as well, but second place is still great, it could have been worse, he's lucky he didnt lose control and spin off so flippin alonso is leading the championship now
