Hungarian GP was the best in quite a long time. The race was very exciting and for the first time no one could decide who will be the winner on the start. All team startegies & planning were washed off, by a two-faced weather.
The best part of the race I liked the most was when Alonso came out from his 2nd pit stop and went sliding, and suddenly we see his vehicle ready to be towed off.

Yes it was a good race! Highly stressful tho to watch sitting at home with it being so unpredictable :) and not just the two hrs of the race, but right frm qual with alonso n then schumi being docked time, and then the next day with the kubica disqualification n the three ferrari pts gained as a result.
guess the contest really heats up now...

actually it was a great race, happy turn of events for jensen button, though he had the speed the race weekend, he would've dreamt winning from 14th position on the grid. an interesting race that will go down in history as one of the best.
the fact it was horrible for weekend ferrari, they made most of the mistakes and still came out with 3 points. alonso was down and out with penalty, and schumacher failed to capitalize on it, and earned a penalty for himself. then poor driving by massa and to add it schumacher lost his cool and lost points by failing to complete. though bridgestone tyres were bad and schumacher was gambling on intermediates, they could have still thought about reality when other cars were quiker, to call him in and send him back, atleast by doing that, schumacher could have got a fourth position, but who knows, the race could have had some other turn of events and schumacher could've made it to the podium. ferrari lost their heads when it really mattered and bridgestone fared very miserablely when the conditons were tough.
to think of that next year all cars will be on bridgestone and another wet race we could have even more turn of events :)
