As much as I was happy to see two red suits on the podium on Sunday, everyone within the team and the Tifosi would unwillingly acknowledge that the two podium places were gifts from Renault rather than hard earned points. Although not that happy with the weekend, I would like to celebrate Renault's "DNF" status against both its cars. These are the first signs that the Championship is not a foregone conclusion so early into the season, at least the constructors is really wide open.
After looking promising over the initial races, Narain seems to have gone off the boil so soon, retirement over technical reasons are unfortunate but mistakes like his are not. Only note of consolation was that both Button and Alonso did the same thing, but the fact is that they are established drivers and there is no question mark over their immediate F1 future which is not the case for Narain. This reminds me of the Roy Keane-Ireland fiasco. Like Roy said, there is no point celebrating playing the World Cup, if those celebrations exceed its limits and you don’t work hard, you will be out after the first round! This applies to Narain, he has worked hard for where he is and it would be very disappointing to see lose all that within one year.
Kimi, my choice for Schumacher II, had another good race, McLaren seems to have sorted out their package and look to the best out there at the moment. I really wanted to see Kimi take on Montoya for the first position but the self proclaimed championship material dumbass decided that red lights apply only for commoners and justifiably sent packing back to the garage by the race steward. At the end of last season, I was really looking forward to 3 battles among teammates, Kimi vs Montoya, Trulli vs R.Schumacher, Webber Vs Hiedfeld - amazing none of the three have lived up to expectations......As for Barri, extraordinary third place, did his job well and suitably rewarded.
Finishing off with the King himself, I am worried about his aggressiveness again. It was very unlike Schumi to follow Kimi like he did on Sunday and he did not even try, was very disappointed. I hope it was the car or the tyre or his thin championship hopes were the reasons behind his decision to accept second place. I read another blog where it was suggested that Schumi should have retired when we was at the top, uneducated would my immediate response, I am sure that Schumi would consider this to be one of his interesting years and would be relishing the challenge. Quitting at the top is for people who have piggybacked their way to the top or were born at the top, not for people who have worked their way up because they know their way back up and will surely return.

Ferrari dont stand a chance this year, it definitely is Renault.
Anything can happen in F1.
The championship is not ever by chance...30 points is not much of a lead, its just that Schumi's chances are slim or if I am being straight, it not in his hands
