While I can certainly appreciate great photography, to me it just seems like an overhyped retro idea coming back to popularity and being over-used. It shouldn't be used for every shot, and most REAL professionals have several cameras and several setups ready for particular events, so I would hope the guys who took these took some other pictures without this overused feature. The first picture was good because it had the people focused as I'm guessing the photographer intended, but SOME of the shots after made it seemed over-used and completely unnecessary. I'm no professional hell I wouldn't even say I'm an amateur but listening to my dad about photography for decades gives me some ability to critique. And if it doesn't then I give myself the right dammit.

However, this bottle was not marked `poison,' so Jenson ventured to taste it, and finding it very nice, (it had, in fact, a sort of mixed flavour of cough syrup, grenadine, and sweat) he very soon finished off the entire can of Red Bull.
`What a curious feeling!' said Jenson; `I must be shutting up like a telescope.' And so it was indeed: he was now only ten inches high.
@Ash78: Nice. Very literary. Charles Lutwidge Dodgso (aka Lewis Carrol) died in 1898, so he never got to enjoy F1. I like to think he would have liked it. Especially the Mosley/Ecclestone era with all it's bizarreness.
When you throw a beautiful Korean girl in the first picture, every other picture seems like a POS compared to her. I clicked on it thinking "OOOOOOO MORE KOREANS?" and now I am dissappointed. Thanks alot Ray. I blame it on you. >_>
@Steve Neill: I think she's Japanese, both from her looks (though she does look a little Korean) and the whole thing about it being the Japanese Grand Prix. I've been wrong before though..
What exactly is in that Brawn? Flux capacitors? Chaparral ground-sucking fans? Turbos? Kryptonite? Depleted Uranium?
From no team to winning? There's some serious Brawn witchcraft. Now we know why Schumi was so good.
And the race itself was quite spectacular, if a little disappointing to watch as a Ferrari fan chanting "Bring the rain, bring the rain, bring the rain." in my head after that "gamble" which, frankly, lacked common sense.
@Mobius_1: Ion cannons operating on a wavelength outside the human eye's range. Controlled from orbit by Ross Brawn's outboard brain. It's fairly obvious.

Max: "Damn them! That Orosz didn't get a single picture of me in Tilt Shift. This is my last year! I need to be remembered for something!"
Nazi Hooker #1:"We can take care of the Crazy Euro Car Boy..."
Nazi Hooker #2: "Yes, we will make him scream..."
Max: "Yes. Yes! Kill the man they call Orosz!"
