Ferrari are back!

It was a close race, as it turned out Alonso just beat Michael to the line, because he got in front at the last stop. Of course Ferrari "lost" a lap's worth of fuel from qualifying and the extra lap which it would have given Michael might have made all the difference. Nevertheless it was a great result. Ferrari's performance showed that they are back at the front. Massa did a sound job as #2 and given the fumble with the wheel guns, 9th was a good result. And Raikkonen's recovery from last on the grid to 3rd was great.

Also, great start by rookie Nico Rosberg, fastest lap on his debut GP - not bad! I will be following his progress as well, I was a great fan of his dad Keke.

So... I reckon there are 4 or 5 competitive teams - Ferrari, Renault, McLaren, Honda and Williams - let's see how things stand after a couple more races!

Only 6 days until the next race!!
