What a way to end! Poor Coulthard..he would have had quite a good chance of podium if the race had continued and the rest took their pit stops. I haven't watched in a year, but that was good, :)

Because the safety car had just come out because of Webbers crash and he hadn't caught up with it yet and so comming speeding round the corner he was met by car parts and hit one and so the race was stopped and so they took the last complete lap before the race was stopped and during that time he was 3rd simple.

Coulthard must be gutted - if he hadn't pitted and stayed out a few more laps he'd have won....

Did we ever find out what happened to Bariichello's car?

Nie to see Jaguar (being from MK) getting points though.

To be fair, as one of the Jordan team (head mechanic I think, Gary I can never remember his surname) said after the race it's a bit disappointing being as they thought they had won, but if you had given them second before the race they would have taken it like that.

I don't rate him anyway, not a great driver. He used to live in Walnut Tree (which for those who don't know is like 8 miles away from me.)

I used to think Coulthard could win a championship but I think he's going to face some tough competition fron Raikkonen, looking back at the first races of this season.

We can't rule out Schumacher. The new car will be ready soon but he just hasn't been driving well these last few races. I think once he gets the new car he'll get some confidence back and be back to his best and the championship will be a one horse race again, sadly.

I can't see it this season, I think he'll improve but I think this season will be a lot closer than the last few.

I don't think David Coulthard will ever be World Champion. Hes okay, but hes not that good, he can win a few races but you need to be consistent.

I'd love Coulthard to be World Champion. He's been going so long now and I think he really deserves it.

BTW, is Alonso ok?

I think Fisichella is under rated. I'm sure I heard someone saying that it would be Jordan's first race win, which is bollocks, Hill got their first in Spa '98.

It would be Jordan's 4th and Fischella's 1st and he is very good in the wet and generally a very quick driver.

Yeah go hide in a hole somewhere an come out when you get a good result. If you don't win San Marino in the new car your looking crap for the season.

I don't think they've gotta worry too much after the new car comes out though.
