Saudi GP: I feel bad for Alonso and his demotion. He certainly deserved 3rd.
Yeah, that was a heartbreaker. Everyone in the pit crew trying to save 1/10 of a second, but the rules are pretty clear - no touching the car. Both last race and this one, the penalties imposed seem out of proportion with the seriousness of the offence - especially when compared to what happens on track to generate a comparable penalty.
On another note, this race did nothing to dispel the fear that it's going to be a cakewalk for Red Bull this season. All the good racing may be for 3rd place & down.
