Congrats to Kobayashi. My wife couldn't watch the last few laps as Button was closing. Despite her built-in cultural bias against Japan she was rooting heavily for Kobayashi as was I. While I know that racers are racers, I still have to wonder if Jenson didn't push quite as hard as he would have at another track. Of all the racers he knows how much a podium for Kobayashi would mean to the fans.

What an awesome track. The esses look very fun and 130R looks intimidating.
I thought the same thing about Jenson. Keep in mind had he passed Koby he would get no nookie tonight.
