Wow top scorer with 16 - scores are low this year probabaly because results are much less predictable. Glock 2nd!

I'd love to see this race live, the atmosphere must be fantastic - the cars look so good in the lights.

I watched most of it, and it does look fabulous from the sky! The city, winding around it and constant traffic looks superb. Has a very 'hemmed-in" feel to it I think. Unlike most circuits where you can see something rather than just another wall. Weird. But a great spectacle nonetheless.
 
Jak, I went to Long Beach (California) in '77 - that was a street circuit and run in brilliant sunshine. The problem with that was that you only saw a very small part of the track (from where I was) and couldn't move around. So I saw the exit of a bend and looked at the side of a high-rise building. Perhaps it's better watching on TV tbh!

The Isle of Man TT is a bit like that but of course very open. You see the bikes for 10 secs of a 19 min lap, so listen to the radio intently!
 
It was a boring race and when it could have been interesting in the last 10 laps, they all backed off to settle for their points (wisely) and conserve their brakes. Rosberg unlucky not to finish high in the points, Webber unlucky too (but then he usually is).

Looks fabulous, so does Monaco but for pure racing, F1 has a lot to regain including loyal spectators.

Will Renault be a racing team next year or just an engine supplier ?
Well done Glock - the guy deserves a better car and wtf was Raikonnen ?
