Give your top 5 favorite races this year and a short explanation why.
Ok I'll start first.

1. Spa (Raikkonen win, and some of the best passing of the season)
2. Brazil (great battle between JPM and Kimi, pit strategy playing out)
3. Germany (hated that Shummi won, but Button's drive through the field
was amazing. Especially when him and Alonso had it out for a few laps)
4. Great Britain (hated that Shummi won again, but McLaren's rise back to
the podium :buttrock , and Kimi and Shummi nose to tail to the end)
5. Monaco (just someone other than Ferrari winning, It's a sweet venue to
watch anyways, and Shummi wrecking :laugh )

I really enjoyed the Brazil race. Really fun to see Barachelo and Montoya do well there... the locals seemed to go berzerk because of it.

Also nice to see JPM/Williams go out on such a great note.

I liked the Brazil race the most. The last lap was pretty exciting with Kimi right on Montoya's tail. It was nice to see some other faces on the podium.

USGP - Cause I was there. :D

Amen to that one. I was on the front stretch, directly across from the Mercedes/McLaren and BMW-Williams pits. Worst part about that was watching Ralf come too hot around turn 13, and go tail-first into the wall at probably 160ish mph...

Brazil was certainly fun to watch.

I also enjoyed watching Japan, for some reason...

Spa was my favorite, just an outstanding drive by Kimi, and with all the tire punctures, engine failures, etc. it kept you on your toes and the entire race could change in a few seconds.

And like someone said above, (forget the venue) But the race when the pit strategy of the Renault's forced Ferrari to go to a 4-stopper, which Schumi pulled out as much time as Braun told him to. Really showed that Michael drives like a God when necessary

Spa was the best in terms of the racing.

USGP because I was there courtesy of BMW and didn't pay a penny all weekend!! :D

1. Spa. I was glad that Kimi won. He's my 3rd fav driver. Schumi locked up the Championship with his 2nd place finish. He's my fav driver.
2. Monza. Great Ferrari 1-2 finish. It's great that Rubens is so emotional after his wins. It He's my 2nd fav driver.
3. Germany.

well i missed half the season, so my answer is biased, but i'll say Monaco b/c Jarno Truli won the race at home. i see some people here are thrilled when Ferrari doesn't take the win. i wonder if Truli would have still won had Schumi stayed in the race...

what's with you people? Why hate Schumy so much? He's teaching those morons how to win and how to drive and until somebody beats him more than once can we say he's a good driver.... Beating Schumy when his car is not up to the task doesn't make a world champion......Or did you all forget what he did at the Nurburgring or Japan?

I don't hate the guy. I just hate the fact that he's kicking the crap out of all the other drivers. I miss the competition of the early 90's.

What's the point of watching the series if you know who's going to win?
