This race was surprisingly, tired & boring, because Sebastian Vettel suddenly lost power or something. Then it became boring since some of the cars were unable to overtake. Anyways, a good start for Alonso but I hope the future races become better, of course there are is always monaco, italy & SPA race will be exciting to see.

Well done Alonso !! I would prefered Vettel to win .. but he has time in the future races to recover the today's loss.

not the most interesting race, interesting that cars numbered 1-8 ended up in top 8 places. shows that in the current world of f1, with no engine development, low budgets, virtually no testing, you are much better off to have several years under your belt - and most importantly A GOOD CARRY OVER PACKAGE FROM PREVIOUS YEAR. the circuit is actually probably the best for a season opener, although not the most interesting, it works as a great test of several setup areas with high, mid and low speed corners, good straights, plenty of runoff areas (we'll probably never see a safety car except in a multi car pileup). considering 8 retirements, it's not a bad thing.

Very well said. F1 is fun but the sport needs some competitiveness all around. Why is always the same teams winning. At least in Le Mans you would would have various teams challenging Audi. Other classes being even more competitive.

Alonso my a** - he only won because Vettel had a loss of power due to exhaust problems; good race for Nico + Michael though... GO-GO MERCEDES-BENZ!!! ;-D Obrigado

Totally agree. It was processional. The new rules have had the opposite affect of their intention.
