    I hope 2009 is the last year for Jensen to race anything at all. He is so uninspired or just blatantly trying to fall back to keep the championship alive. Whatever he's just become a lazy ass douche and I hope Rubens smotes him.

    I'll admit right now, I've been following the wins and stats for the season but I've only actually watched Australia. Now that that is said, I'm not sure who I'm pulling for for the championship, Button or Vettel. Barrichello isn't on my radar.

    @PowerTryp forever Minardi: All three guys would make interesting champs. I'd kind of like to see Rubens win just because no one would have ever thought it was possible. Vettel will win championships in the future. He's too good not to.

    Alguersuari's slide through the ING sign was worthy of slo-mo replay. And as far as Vettel is concerned, I was nearly certain his engine was going to let go; things were just going too well for him. Great course, although qualifying was definitely the more exciting event.

    Qualifying is the best part of F1, and Suzuka's was crazy. The raced lacked drama, but that is the way it goes in F1. It is funny that Rosberg got away with speeding during the safety car period because his low fuel warning came on and occupied the screen which would give the SC status.

    Well, if I can't beat Gurney, why even try? I wonder if I can get Chevy to give me back my deposit?


    It's more impressive what those old drivers did - given that they were sitting just a few inches off the pavement, and with a whole lot less car around them. That's a perspective that magnifies the sense of speed and danger, and they still could keep their foot in it.

    Amazing track, but holy boring show for the spectators... With 8:30 lap times, you'd see the cars go by, what, 12 times?

    @middlejester: The race was 15 laps, according to the narrator. But yeah, think of what you could do while waiting for your favorite driver to go by again. Especially if you brought your significant other along and, you know, had staked out a remote spot under a tree or something...

    Pay attention at 3:12 in the video, look at the hands of the driver, how he takes the curve. I couldn't notice at first but those cars slide like hell. A quarter turn opposite to the direction of the curve. Crazy.


    I bet an in car footage throughout the whole ring would show that these cars were a pain to steer and very much unstable. Hats off to those gentlemen.

    If this were posted last night then the Camaro would be the undisputed Jalopnik Most Posts of the Day champion.


    Instead, the Camaro -- that icon of America -- is now tied with the Prius. The Prius!!!!


    Ironic.

    And a tip of the hat to Rainer Schlegelmilch, who snapped this shot of Dan Gurney and many other racing images of 1960/70/80's Motorsport. Check out his website at the link below
