;D OUSTANDING!!! And a monkey wrench in the plans of Brawn GP. Of course, another something to happen to Rubens!! Fuel rig problem! Yah, right. Seems something conveniently comes up for Ross Brawn to make an excuse. I'm glad Rubens is so angry. If they aren't using him to setup Jensen, then the screw him over when he's leading- and Brawn will say, "We didn't know the fuel rig wouldn't work right." Pay attention to the replay folks- the first rig was never even put on the car- very close but you could still see the end of the rig before they switched. Yes- it is a "perfect example of how to lose a race!" Like I said before- he had to put up with it behind Michael Schumacher- and now it's Jensen. The only saving grace for Rubens was that Jensen had all the problems being held up for a good first part of the race. Maybe I should be glad I might not see the Hungarian Grand Prix. Brawn might be coming up to the end of their bag of tricks to keep Rubens from winning, at least, 1 race. On the other hand- Sebastian Vettel has a possibility at the WC! WC= for Vettel and Red Bull, posibly a World Championship; for BrawnGP, the other definition Water Closet. But, don't worry about me- my blood pressure never goes up, no matter how mad I get at something! "Hey- where you going with that cake!"

Fantastic drive by Webber ;D ;D ;D
I'm really really pleased he finally got a win, well deserved.
Don't think I agree with the drive thro penalty he picked up tho as both him and Rubens got thro the 1st corner undamaged. There was a dirty black mark on Rubens sidepod where Webbers tyre hit it.
Great racing!

So happy for Mark, what a drive! Hopefully he can follow it up in Hungary. Brawn need to get their head down now......

Mark Webber will undergo further surgery on the leg he broke last year after the upcoming Hungarian Grand Prix.
Webber, who ended his Formula One winning drought in Germany last weekend, needs to have screws removed from his right leg during the traditional summer break.
There are four weeks between next week's Hungarian race and the European Grand Prix at Valencia on August 23 allowing the Australian time to recover. He will have further surgery post season to remove the pin inserted into the leg after the cycling accident in Tasmania.
"The titanium rod is coming out only after the season and then the bump (on the lower leg) will disappear," Webber told reporters.
Webber admitted the injury, suffered when he was hit by a car while competing in his charity Challenge, had cost him early in the season after he spent most of the off-season off the leg.
"I think I was kidding myself a bit," Webber said. "It is absolutely clear that the leg was a long way from healed and it was still broken.
"It was just the metal holding it in place so it has come a long way since then."
Webber is 22.5 points behind Jenson Button in the race for the drivers' championship after nine of the 17 races with his Red Bull team now dominant after winning the past three races.
