happy to see Bob Varsha back ... i guess NBC decided to pay him when they realized that three english accents weren't going to be best suited to growing an american audience .... Varsha, Hobbs and machet (SP?) are a great broadcast team. They are part of what sets the sport apart from all others. I'm happy to see that they've made the transition now intact

I didn't see any incident for which Kimi was slapped three grid spots ... did you?

Räikkönen hit with three-place grid penalty

Kimi Räikkönen has been hit with a three-place grid penalty for the Malaysian Grand Prix, with the Finn adjudged to have blocked Mercedes's Nico Rosberg in qualifying.

The Lotus driver, who set the seventh fastest time, was deemed to have impeded Rosberg at Turn 14. The 2007 World Champion will now start Sunday afternoon's race from tenth on the grid, promoting Jenson Button, Adrian Sutil and Sergio Pérez.

Rosberg's starting position will remain unchanged, with the German qualifying sixth.

oh hell yeah!!!

it's good they kept the announcing team in tact, i didn't see what happened, but it really doesn't sound like Kimi...

at one time there was X.5% F1 drivers killed over the years and i always figured Niki as the .5%
