Awesome race; well done BMW!!!

But WTF was the race steward thinking leaving the pit exit light on red when all of the front runners were trying to leave the pits at the same time during the first pit stop? There could have been an even worse mass pile-up there. Its not like the cars leaving the pits were racing for positions at that time, on track, as the safety car was still on track with a full-course yellow. Unbelievable decision.

I hate to be the party pooper...but in the future, would it be possible to put a spoiler alert or something of that nature It's shown in the middle of the night here in Hawaii and I have to pre-recorded it.

Otherwise, congrats to BMW!

AWESOME JOB BY BMW AND KUBICA!!!!!

It was only a matter of time before he cracked the first one though. The only problem now is that a lot of good offers will come from various teams. Hope he remains with BMW.
