In a damp race marred by several crashes, difficult tire choices and two safety car deployments, McLaren's Lewis Hamilton comes out on top and retakes the lead in the Driver's Championship.
The race only went 76 laps as it hit the two hour time limit. Robert Kubica had a sensible drive to second place, with polesitter Felipe Massa only managing third, but that was better than teammate Kimi Raikkonen, who fell to 9th with two unscheduled stops.
Force India had looked set to score its first points with Adrian Sutil in 4th place, but an incident with Kimi on lap 69 in the tunnel ended his day.
Points Finishers
1) Lewis Hamilton
2) Robert Kubica
3) Felipe Massa
4) Mark Webber
5) Sebastian Vettel
6) Rubens Barrichello
7) Kaz Nakajima
8) Heikki Kovalainen

Magnificent Massa!
Felipe Massa put in a brilliant lap to take pole position answering his critics in his own way. The brave Heikki Kovalainen thankfully returns after his big accident to out qualify his teammate for the second time this year taking second spot away from Lewis Hamilton who ended up in third. Kimi Raikkonen made a small mistake in turn one which cost him some top speed and several tenths on his lap only able to place him in fourth while Robert Kubica put in another great qualifying run to make it into fifth spot. The surprise of the day however was Mark Webber wrangling his Red Bull chassis into sixth position ahead of the rest of the field possibly on a very light fuel load.
With the top seven qualifying within less than a second, tomorrow's race is looking to be a great one!

So Sorry...
The F1Geeks family ran into a bit of dark cloud during the last GP. Some health issues and other distractions kept us from joining you here for all of the fun.
Not to fear though. We will be here with you for the rest of the season bringing you all of the latest in F1 news and results...maybe a few good juicy rumors thrown in for good measure.
