I guess I never was so happy about a 4th place. It's a little bit said that Jenson's not on the podium cause it really looked good for that but still: It's just awesome. Great race. The start didn't look to good because the Renaults were just too good there but I loved how Jenson overtook them and got back his 4th place. Of course he was quite light. I completely expected him to be. But he wasn't even that much lighter than the Renault or Ferrari. The car just worked all of a sudden. After Rubens engine blew up I was afraid the same could happen to Jenson. Luckily it didn't. Jenson didn't have much of a chance when Kimi overtook him about 10 laps before the end of the race. But with all these terrible races lately I don't really care that much. I'm just happy with the result and with Honda seemingly back.
Bad race for Jacques and Mark though.
