Yeah I was watching this earlier...Schumacher started in the 13ths position and battled his way all the way to 2nd.....if he didn't go wide on some of the turns he could've snagged 1st...it was an amazing race

This has to be one of the best races in recent history in terms of excitement and competitiveness in a while. It is also said to be one of the closest finishes in history. It looks like all the top teams from last year are all back on stride again. Too early to tell, but it looks like this season will look similar to last year only a little more competitive between the top teams. It looks like Ferrari is back, BAR/Honda looks to be back, but we need to see how they do next race, Renault is strong just like last year, McLaren/Mercedes is starting to have reliability issues just like last year, BMWWilliams hasn't quite got it together just like last year, Toyota looks to be dropping off a bit. By mid seaons we might be right back to how it was last year.
