<{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>Interesting season so far, i'm loving it. Already getting tired of people bitching about how F1 needs to change blah blah blah, its been relatively good this year and the people saying those things are watching the wrong sport anyway. Its a shame.
Alonso seems to be conducting himself in a very mature and balanced way this year, he is in a good position and is doing an excellent job of making himself a figurehead of the sport. Meanwhile we are told not to panic about Schumachers so far unremarkable comeback. At least he's been fairly solid, i'm gonna give it at least half a season before i decide either way about that.
The real story is Button already justifiying his decision to leave Brawn and go to Mclaren, i think Lewis will come out on top in the end but its exciting to see his cage rattled a bit already. Hopefully redbull have learnt (better late than never) how to build a car, but i fear if it does hold together Vettel might be somewhat unstopable. Early days yet, i didn't expect this new points system to keep everyone so close, 3 winners in 3 races lets hope we get a 4th next time out
Solid post. I though Alonso would have made some sort of a terminal mistake with his ailing Ferrari in trying to defend in the dying laps, but he drove a great race. Really too bad about the failure.
Like you said about Schumacher, it's still very early. But Rosberg has outshone him each time out thus far and I haven't seen any Schumacher-of-old driving at any point yet. I think he's past it.
The two biggest story lines for me are the battle at McLaren and whether Red Bull can keep the car going. Just like you said. The champion will come from one of these garages, I'm just not convinced whether it'll be Vettel, Hamilton or Button just yet.
