Congrats to Moldonado

Really good race in Spain this morning. Moldonado did a great job holding off Alonso near the end. I feel bad for Kimi as he was really laying down some hot laps near the end. The crash with Schumie and Senna surprised me.

Thanks for the spoiler. I didn't get to watch the race until this morning.

What network had it on today? And they effectively handed the race to moldonado anyway when they sent Hamilton to the back of the pack. I'm not a huge fan of modern F1 with all of it's "gotcha" rules, but it was pretty funny to see Hamilton nailed by a "Hamilton" rule. Don't be sad, you still get to listen to Hobbs commentary. I just wish Bob Varsha would not talk as much.

Now that I look over my post it didn't "spoil" the race, I just said congrats for running a "good" race.

Didn't the thread title give it away? I suppose the better way to avoid a "spoiler" was just to title the thread "Spanish GP Result" and then leave it up to the reader to open it or not.

I'm Internet handicapped. You're talking to someone who uses 35mm film, LP's, and vacuum tubes with great frequency.

Just how old ARE you?

Methinks I need to make a trip to eastern TN sometime. Only 100 miles from my front door to the top of Black Mountain on I-40.

Speed re-ran it Monday morning. I had set my DVR to record it when it was live, but for some reason it didn't. I still had fun finding out who came in second and all the stuff that happened along the way.
