Spanish GP Banter - "Good job"
Advance warning - if you are not a Williams fan, stop reading. I make no apologies for my near-unreserved joy today. Tempered only by the subsequent tragedy of the fire in the Williams garage.
I'm not sure whether everyone will have found today's race a nail-biting drama watched from behind spread fingers but there certainly was a lot of drama in the last 12 laps. As Williams and Sauber make great breakthroughs the overwhelming feeling (apart from sootiness) down the pit lane is disappointment. Alonso and Raikkonen plastered on smiles and hoisted Maldonado on to their shoulders but there was sadness in their eyes. Cracks are beginning to show at McLaren, Whitmarch discussing his long night of "lots of conversations with Lewis", who presumably was tempted out with football stickers, sweeties and a new pair of earrings.
Considering who could be the 6th winner this year at Monaco, I am now rooting for Senna and, more realistically, Raikkonen. A good outside bet might be Grosjean, who put in the fastest lap in Spain. It's all to play for.

Spanish GP Charts
Chart of Lust
1. (re-entry) Pastor Maldonado - hero of the day
2. (new entry) Lapping cars - Williams lap Red Bull - hurrah!
3. (new entry) Venezualan national anthem - beautiful to hear
4. (new entry) 5 races, 5 different winners - how long can this continue? Monaco generally throws up surprises.
Chart of Loathing
1. (new entry) Fires
2. (new entry) Schumacher - for ruining Senna's race. A 5 place grid penalty is not sufficient given that the incident meant that Senna's car was not in parc ferme after the race and therefore wrecked in the fire.
3. (new entry) Grosjean - for attempting to ruin Senna's race
4. (new entry) Whinging - this week's culprits are Button and Alonso
5. (new entry) Making a 64 year old man sprint 100 metres - cruel Jake

Notes: Having reviewed the rules regarding qualifying demotions, Maldonado was awarded 15 points for pole rather than Hamilton. The Adjudicator felt that as Hamilton gave a pole time with car that was lighter than legally allowed and subsequently demoted, rather than being demoted for an engine or gearbox change penalty, the moral (and actual) pole scorer is Maldonado.
