Nice lap by Depailler

Sergio Perez, Sauber wrote:I feel very good and fit. Of course I want to race in Montreal, but I also know the final decision is up to the FIA doctors. I have never been to Montreal and know the circuit only from watching TV. Originally it was planned I would go to the Ferrari simulator at Maranello, but this had to be cancelled after my accident. Anyway, it is not the first unknown circuit for me and I have never had difficulties adapting. I found it very hard to be just a TV spectator for the race in Monaco, and can’t wait to get into the car again.

Should be driving from what I've read elsewhere.

Two DRS zones this time round. Here are the locations, as expected.

Confirmation of the DRS zones.

There will be one detection point but 2 uses available to the car who is behind at the hairpin.

Interesting garage boards for Canada

Saw the Lewis and Jense ones already, nice exit from the drab texts of usual I guess.

Mr Vettel again.

He looks pretty quick but if it rains, McLaren could be in the paying seats as they seem to be running more wing to gamble on some rain. Can't wait

do hope Vettel wins cos Wild Bean Racing won't be getting many points from this mad race!

I vote Bert Mylander should get some points after leading for so many laps today

& that is what we like!!

what a finish! Well done Jenson Button. Vettel is human and got scared.

Amazing GP. Quality stuff. I actually wanted Schumacher on the podium. Really hopes he keeps up this. It'd be nice to add another driver into the possible podium picture. I really hope this is a chink in Vettel's armour. Makes for better racing!

What an amazing race!

Great win for Jenson after being last with about 18 laps to go! And it shows that Vettel is fallible at last. A pity Kobayashi couldn't stay up there for a podium though.

Stunning race. Schumi was brilliant but just hasn`t got the car just now.
Lewis will really need to look at what he`s doing as he would`ve been given a penalty for pushing Weber off.
Vettel I think still has cracks when he`s put under pressure. We have seen it before and the is the first time someone has got close to do it to him.
