Urgh..
Drivers already moaning that Suzuka is suddenly too dangerous. Things like they need bigger tarmac run offs.
I hope it didn't go unnoticed that with the exception of Webber. All the crashes were from the rookies of this track. Glocks was plain embarressing.
Buemie if I were him I'd keep my mouth shut and head down for a few weeks after dumping your car twice in one session. (he's one of the complainers.)
That one session proved to me why Suzuka is one of the best tracks in the world. Kimi said it best. "this is how a track should be, you have to stay on track to get a laptime or you crash".

Yep. Too many of a generation who aren't used to having to retire if you get it wrong. Maybe they should bring back some more gravel traps.

Brawn also need to very careful now. Mediocre showings in Brazil and Abu Dhabi, and Vettel's in with a good shout if he can win either. RB must surely realise this isn't a Ferrari type situation now, where they are virtually guaranteed decent points. If I were him I'd be making sure that if necessary, and they arent' challenging for the win, and Button is directly following Barrichello's slipstream, they "arrange themselves" to get those six points ASAP.

If they where at Williams that is how it would be. Frank Williams always said that the constructors championship comes first, points mean prizes and the drivers championship that comes second. After all drivers come and go, it is the team that stays.

One more point and they've got it though, and either way RBR still need two 1-2s to win it - so essentially they've wrapped the constructors up. One could say that as they need to get the points to seal the drivers championship, then they'll do that anyway. :)
