Wasn't it boring to watch!! And isnt't that typical of F1 in more recent years....races won and lost on pitstops ....boring imo.
I remember about 10-15 years ago when they had turbos with adjustable boost (i think), they'd only have limited fuel too so they're pace was dictated by boost/fuel (as in not running too much boost to not run out of fuel before the chequered flag). The pace of the cars would change throughout the race which actually meant winning by OVERTAKING on the track .
I've watched F1 for many years, i turned todays race over after about lap 12 . I remember when the bbc had it, no pre-race bullshit like ITV has, just good old murray walker rabbiting on (and no tv ads either!).
Watch bike racing it's much more entertaining.

Have to say that the idea of a 'Turbo boost' much the same as the Indycar Championship's doesn't really apeal to me
What really does fuck me off though is the breaks that you meantioned ITV keep putting in, how fucking annoying is that!
Hope Sky get it in a year or two, namely British Eurosport, perhaps they will have some decent fucking commentators then!
Like the bike racing!

Ron's been quoted as saying they instructed them NOT to race after Stop 1. If thats the truth, then its completely unacceptable! Thats blatent Team Orders. The stuff that McLaren used to complain that Ferrari were doing! Lewis looked seriously fucked off on the podium!
On the subject of Lewis. I, like many others, am sick of the amount of coverage the guys getting. Yes hes a Brit. Yes he will win the champioinship in the future. But the media presure is going to burn him out too soon. I watched his climb from Euro F3. And hes got buckets of talent. But ITV need to just back off a little.
Dont like Massa. Hes crap and needs Michael to hold his hand too much. Kimi is EXACTLY what a racing driver should be. Fast as Hell. And like partying
(with inflatable dolphins, lap dancers and Vodka) 
Ferrari have 1000 people at Maranello, he doesnt need to really know every technical detail to be Champion. Only if he wants to win lots of titles. Which he doesn't.

i watched the highlights again and you can see that dennis manipulated the race to stop alonso stamping his feet no doubt if let to race hamilton would of either crashed or won his car control is fuckin outstanding the way he was bring the back of the car out to get it in the position he required ity was like watching rally cross how many seasoned drivers can drive a car that loose
and as for the media exsposer beckhams had it for years schumacher buttun artic monkey's you wont change the media they will beef some one up and set fire to them in the same breathe
