Saari atleast has some knowledge, Kyllönen was way too senile during the last few years. Though I do miss the random "They're putting slick weather tires on his car!" etc funny ****.
Shame that JJ has (or is he gone there already..?) to go to prison (+probably won't get a gig in any channel after what he did), I really liked him as a commentator.
From the current line-up, Mustakari isn't too bad, but for the love of god- keep Salo as far away as possible from any race.
Kyllönen retired at the right time but somehow I've disliked Saari from the day one. I just don't like his voice and personality...like in radio there is so many radio voices that I can't stand not much about what they say but the way they sound. In Saari's case I often even don't like what he says though he is better now than in his first years. Mustakari is still the "brains" there even though he is getting old and oh my what about that guy Pulkkinen behind the scenes...he looks and sounds like a bad comedy character
Kimi is still improving...mayde some mistakes in the first sting in q3 and gear box replacement drops him to 10th...but it's better than last week's 17th. Plus he beat his team mate in time.
McLaren looks strong but let's see how Red Bull does in the race.
What hapenned to him? I know he had gearbox issues in the first race. Still finished with points this race.
Edit: Nevermind, just reading up on the race. Spun out by Grosjean. Nothing but bad luck for Schumi so far. He's shown how fast the car can go in qualifying.
Sounds like an exciting race. Was just a little too early in the morning (4am) for me to commit to it.
ed: Lots of accusations that Ferrari ordered Perez (through Sauber) to back off. Somehow that was the reason Perez had an off? Nonsensical.
It did look quite suspicious, and it wouldn't be the first time that Ferrari has abused Sauber nor the first time that Alonso has bended the rules like he wants without any consequences.
Happy for Perez, liked the kid since his GP2 days.
Iceman turns into ice cream man. Mmmm... Ice cream...
Massa is on a short leash now... wouldn't be surprised if he's replaced mid-season by some unknown Mexican... Then, one of Massa, Jules Bianchi, Esteban Gutierrez and Nick Heidfeld driving for Sauber for the remainder of the year.
Valtteri Bottas: should already be in F1...he is the next Finn to hit it big in F1. Beat Maldonado in the practise for example.
Massa: time is running out...even though you can clearly see Ferrari's car is made just for Alonso's needs and Massa just has to learn drive a car that doesn't suit his hands.
Noise about Bahrain (predictably) getting louder. Talk of some teams not wanting to attend, Bernie saying he can't force teams to go there. Hard to tell fact from fiction at times - but above all political considerations, I just hope the correct decision is made regarding the safety of those involved.

I just don't understand why couldn't they drive the F1 race in Qatar instead of Bahrain? The Losail International Circuit in Doha, Qatar is less than 500km away from Bahrain, and it has hosted at least some good MotoGP races and a GP2 race.
