Malaysian F1 is Red Flagged
And the race comes to a halt. Charlie Whiting has made the right decision given the conditions. Let’s hope this is not another 4 hour stint.

And They’re Off
The Malaysian F1 gets underway, relatively event free, on a damp circuit. Schumy and Grossjean appear to have made contact and both spun but both survived.

Congratulations Jensen
Jensen Button drove a superb race to take the win at the inaugural F1 race in Melbourne.
With Hamilton coming home in third place, behind Vettel, Maclaren have certainly made a strong opening to their account for the 2012 season.
Hamilton will not be happy, having relinquished his pole /lead position to Button when he got bogged down at the start. Then, courtesy of the safety car, giving up track position to Vettel. Although he showed sufficient pace in the latter stages of the race, he failed to reclaim 2nd place.
The annual Formula 1 circus has gotten off to a great start. All the indicators from todays race are that the 2012 season is going to be very interesting.
Looking forward to Sepang next weekend.
Fabrice Muamba – Here’s Hoping for Survival and Recovery
Fabrice Muamba, the Bolton Wanderers midfielder wa last night fighting for his life after collapsing during his team’s FA Cup tie. He was admitted to The Heart Attack Centre of The London Chest Hospital and is said to be in a critically ill condition.
Shocking when you think how fit these guys are.
Lets hope he makes a successful recovery
Race Is Turned On Its Head
Now the safety car has been deployed we have a new race. Button and Hamilton had just both pitted but now Vettel has gained the advantage and is now placed hard up to Buttons gearbox.
Lucky or what ?
