Re: KERS
Right now, I'm quite happy with KERS. It does give a handy boost to drivers, but not to the point where it is absolutely needed, which gives a bit of spice to the sport, I think.

Re: Hamilton/Trulli incident to be re-examined
I have a feeling that the FIA will keep the current ruling, and I'd agree with them. If Trulli went off under the Safety Car, then he should've been more careful, cold tyres or not. I wouldn't mind seeing the ruling repealed, though, given that I'm no fan of Hamilton's.

Re: Your Reject of the Race - Australia
This is a pretty difficult choice, but I'm going to go with Bourdais here. To be upstaged by a rookie teammate all weekend who no-one thought was going to do very well at all was bad enough. But to give such a lame excuse as, 'The sun was in my eyes' after qualifying, that was true rejectdom.

Re: Melbourne GP Race discussion
Though parts may not have been flying off Vettel's car at the time, there was nothing to say that they wouldn't by the end of the race.

Re: Jackie Pretorius - RIP
Always sad to see a former Formula 1 driver pass on, but like this? It's a real shame, and my thoughts are going to his family and friends. RIP Jackie.

Re: Super Aguri Lives as Brawn GP
Don't forget that Williams have Toyota engines, though. They could've given the idea to Williams.

Re: Can Jenson Button Become WDC?
It would be nice if Jenson won the WDC, especially after he was completely overshadowed by Hamilton in the last two seasons. It would certainly prove that he was right to stick with BAR/Honda all these years. Jenson is indeed a smooth and quick driver, which was evident in both of his GP victories. ...

Re: 2009 Regulations & Innovations
Right now, I think the KERS is about perfect. It gives a good boost, which is offset very nicely by it's weight, making it a gamble by the team whether or not to fit it on their cars. This in turn adds some variety to the races. As for the green stripes being used to keep the environmentalists at ba...

Re: Melbourne GP Race discussion
A decent enough race in my opinion. There was quite a bit of action and some good passing, especially towards the end. Top two couldn't have gone better, it's great to see Button and Barichello back at the front again, after being being in the red-headed stepchild that was Honda in 2007/2008. It's a...

Re: Nelson Piquet, how long will he last?
Renault must stick with Nelsinho throughout the year if they don't want to let another rookie into their car. I think that's quite a good point, actually. I was going to say that I would be absoultely gobsmacked if Piquet lasted past half-way through the season, but I think more driver instability ...
