New F1 record for youngest driver to win (21y) by Sebastian Vettel
what an awesome and exciting race at Monza on Sunday
I hope most of you had caught the action
if not, here are the results
the best part of the race is Sebastian Vettel, a 21 years old driver winning the race in an STR-Ferrari car (previously known as Menardi Team which is known for failure to get any podium)
saddest part of the race is Sebastien Bourdais, a young french driver on the same team, failed to get the car going at the beginning of the race thus starting about 1 lap down
he was lapping at podium pace too...
overall lots of exciting action during the race
because it was wet and monza has a few tight chicanes
so a lot of drivers having ended up cutting the chicanes when failed to overtake only to having to give it back and not overtake for the next corner...
good to see almost all of the drivers backing up the stewards' decision for last week
