Gah!

It's kind of nice to see a Ferrari win at Monza, even if I do dislike the horse-faced git. Still, we have an absolutely amazing back end of the season in store, it's all that I was hoping for at the start of the year.

[myoozikk]

Rats!

Great for the championship though.

[SteveH]

Brilliant win for Alonso and great result for Button - plus amateur hour from Hamilton. Couldn't ask for better.

[Sigourney Beaver]

Fuck. Half a second in a pitstop cost Button an awesome win

jarno retired gearbox. oh well . making decsions easier

Shall we consider that confirmation of Renault next year?

Don't forget having a fin from his diffuser being twatted off by Alonso at the start.

[Sigourney Beaver]

Yeah, that too

More serious that we thought? Someone get Karun back in that car.

If Button could have had that Vettel pitstop

I think I'm going to have to find a Justin.tv stream of the BBC for Singapore, there's no way I'm putting myself though Speed TV again. About 10 ad breaks, shit commentary, forced replays played over live race events. Really shit viewing.

Fucking hell Alonso smile, you've won at Monza for Ferrari and have Grid Girls applauding you (I know they're paid to do so but still). Grumpy fucker.

[PaulM]

I really like it when we can hear the driver chat at the end, good stuff today

[Sigourney Beaver]

Definitely. I hope he replaces that shitbag Liuzzi at Force India next year. I reckon it will happen with there being an Indian GP.

Karun has said himself that he sees no chance of that happening sadly but let's hope he's wrong.

Would have preferred the top two the other way around but good driving from both of them there

[JPR]

Fantastic race, great battle all race with constant trading of purple sectors and a brilliant result Ferrari/Alonso victory. Really good for the championship as well, brings them all closer should be a fantastic end to the season.

Finally a decent fantasy result as well, my 3 drivers take the 3 top spots.

Crap. I like him.

Rosberg on twice as many points as Schumacher too

Alonso really is a personality black hole isn't he?

Great montage of the European leg of the season at the end of the show there, it was an eventful summer indeed.

[PaulM]

Oh Eddy Chattin up the ladies even when there's only a 2 minute break between the main show and the forum.

[The Bag]

How can I get EJ's optician

Yeah, interesting what Button was saying about the rear tyres, and then joshing with the Ferrari guy about the points standings...

Not the most exciting race at Monza ever, but certainly good for keeping the championship interesting.

[Snowman]

Fascinating to see Eddie Irvine come on and talk incredibly frankly about what goes on behind the scenes.

Absolutely, the forum really has been one of the best things the BBC has bought to F1 coverage for the F1 nerds

League has been updated:

Don't think this was posted here? The video of the mechanic being run down. Not pretty

Ouch. Ragdoll.

[MrPogo]

It was the lollipop man's fault then. That's what the driver's going to be 100% focussed on.
