Race day

Well there was a little too much of this:

But in the end a good day was had by all*, especially the spectators:

* Except: Kimi Raikkonen, Robert Kubica, Timo Glock, Takuma Sato, Nelsinho Piquet, Felipe Massa, David Coulthard, Jarno Trulli, Adrian Sutil, Mark Webber, Jenson Button, Anthony Davidson, Sebastian Vettel, Giancarlo Fisichella, Rubens Barrichello

Kimi ended up salvaging a point thanks to Barrichello's disqualification for exiting the pit lane against a red light. This also shifted Champ car champ Sebastien Bourdais to 7th rank (even though he didn't quite finish) and 2 points - not bad for your first f1 in a third tier car (which is why I included him in the list of people who *did* have a good day!
