McLaren
It was interesting to see the problems that usually tended to hit Hamilton in past seasons hit Button this race. I've come to the conclusion that McLaren's problem is Martin Whitmarsh. The team hasn't been the same since Ron Dennis was running the show, and Whitmarsh while good, just isn't good enough for F1. He should be shown the door, about three seasons too late.
Ferrari
What a boneheaded move by Alonso. In order to come out on the right tires at the right time, he threw his whole race away. Massa may well end up being #1 this season.
Red Bull
Vettel is turning into a primadonna and may well drive his well-oiled team apart as a result. I expect to see him at Ferrari in a season or two. It is also interesting that Renault is back in F1 as a constructor...through a back door. Renault owns Nissan who own Infinity...
Mercedes
Apparently Mercedes has suddenly joined the front of the pack. I thought Hamilton made a dumb move to Mercedes, but apparently the thing that was keeping McLaren competitive the last few years was him. I hope things with Rossberg get smoothed over, as Ross Brawn was apparently tightly managing both car's fuel consumption, leading to a rather impatient Nico.
Lotus
What the heck happened to Kimi's race!?
Force India
You have three weeks to redesign your wheel hubs and spindles. Get to it!
