2009 Spanish Grand Prix

Another pretty dominant performance by Brawn. 1-2 for Brawn, and then 3-4 for Red Bull, with Webber leading Vettel. Four wins out of five races for Jenson Button.

Very interesting results, as it seems that Ferrari didn't give Massa enough gas to finish the race at full speed so he had to slow down, which cost him 2 places. Seems like the sort of mistake an established team such as Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro shouldn't be making.

Also, quite the ridiculous accident at the beginning of the race. Took out both Scuderia Toro Rosso cars, including the Swiss, Sebastien Buemi. Looked pretty brutal as teammate Sebastian Bourdais ended up going up and over Beumi's car from the back.

And for the others we've been following this season: Raikonnen retired from the race with some sort of gearbox or throttle issue, and Kubica ended up somewhere around 10th or 11th.

Also, it seems that the proposed rules for 2010 no longer include the thing about making the World Champion the guy who wins the most races, rather than the one who accrues th most points. That makes me happy, because it seems that going by points make for a much more interesting end of the season. Especially if Brawn keeps kicking ass...

And it looks like of the top 3, Mr. Barichello enjoys his jooos the most. No one else seems to be touching it. I miss Kimi and his general all-around angriness and jooos drinking.
