    Wonder if this is in the winning car ?
    KERS is definatly a black art right now.
    Hope this doesnt kill it.

    Again?
    ;)

    Because KERS creates an asymmetrical relationship antithetical to fair play.

    That's a ridiculous assertion.

    but of course, that's just my opinion.

    Actually, it's DRS that is antithetical to fair play ... Let's see, by virtue of being faster than me you are in front of me, but I get an extra boost of straight line speed THAT YOU CAN'T GET!
    Huh?

    LewHam used KERS to pass a DRS-enabled Massa today.

    Yeah it happened when the BBC forum(after race show) was on. I posted a pic in the race thread as it was happening live. It looked like a big fire, initial reports suggested only 1 or 2 people were hurt but I suspected there was more.

    Not a good way for Williams to end the race weekend. :(

    Pitpass reports thirty one received medical attention. Seven remain hospitalized.
    No cause given as of yet.
