And he did it again... What is it that gets Rubens flying the way he does? Why is it that Jenson seems unable to match the Brazilian geezer's awesome speed and efficiency? There are no easy answers, but for sure the Paulista is at the summum of his art, and is an example for all. And his joy on the podium was simply phenomenal, just like winning his first race! In the magnificent Parco di Monza, where so many Greats have left their mark during the past six decades, racing was what it was all about, the way it should be. No holding back, no presence of the almighty "safety" God, and no prisoners taken! It was as iff all the drivers were in a trance, and certainly Lewis Hamilton was the best example of this racing spirit, willing to take chances and loose it all for the reward of passing, which after all is the greatest thrill a driver can experience...

In Hungary, a loose spring from Barrichello's car nearly sent Felipe Massa to The Other World. A devastating blow for the emotional Rubens... In Valencia, Rubens had written on his helmet "Felipe, see you on track soon!", and in a remarkable twist of Destiny, the Brawn driver managed to win his first Grand Prix this season, a victory clearly dedicated to his fellow Brazilian mate Felipe Massa, the Little Big Man of F1. An amazing victory for a man that many saw as "too old", and when I asked DC (David Coulthard) at the podium if he had any regrets witnessing this, his answer was, with a little smile "well yes, some...". Yes, we must never forget rule number one: "There are no rules".

The long overdue win by Lewis Hamilton brought a well needed breath of fresh air to Formula 1. It proved that the reigning World Champion still has great talent (which only dummies doubted), that McLaren has made some remarkable progress, and that on an atypical track such as the Hungaroring the KERS system is definetly an advantage. Apart from that, let us now hope that the likeable and courageous Felipe Massa will be able to fight his way back to his talented self, and soon return to racing. Forza Felipe!
