Another great job from the Mercedes boys. Everyone else in the paddock still has a lot of catching up to do.

Here's how we did with our picks:

forty-three: 10 points - got all three podium finishers right.

BoiseStateFan27 & lakersrule: 8 points each - got the top two steps correct
Retroram52 & IndyAndy: 6 points each - picked Hamilton to win/got Rosberg out of position
Shaqdaddy11: 2 points - got Hamilton & Rosberg out of position

Season Totals so far:

lakersrule: 23 points
forty-three: 18 points
Retroram52: 16 points
IndyAndy: 13 points
BoiseStateFan27: 8 points
Shaqdaddy11: 2 points

Next Up: Spanish Grand Prix, Catalunya, on May 11.

When I typed that out, I almost put "provided Alonso survives turn one when Massa hits him at the start" in parentheses.

That woulda been spooky.

Who else clapped when Vettel was overtaken by the Caterham? I like Vettel, but he does need an attitude adjustment. Might change my signature line to "Tough Luck" though.

DOH!!!

overanxious steward waves checkered flag too early!

I knew that I heard Hamilton say something about this on the last lap!

DOH!!!

overanxious steward waves checkered flag too early!

I knew that I heard Hamilton say something about this on the last lap!

I laughed when I heard that.

Lewis: "Was that the checkered flag?"
Radio: "I would do one more lap"

 

[Schmoopy1000]

how does that happen? Throwing a cherckered flag early?

 

[Retroram52]

Some goober they hired Schmoopy!
