todays race was definetly one worth watching, almost reminded me of a formula atlantic race with drivers going all over the track, and the safety car actually came out, a rarity, and it appeared 4 times at that and almost wiped out once itself.

the major messup was this crash

MONTREAL -- Robert Kubica escaped injury in a spectacular crash Sunday near the midway point of the Canadian Grand Prix.

Team officials first reported the 22-year-old driver from Poland broke his right leg. Later, they said the leg was not broken, and other than being sore he had no apparent injuries.

After the accident, medical personnel removed him from the car and took him to the track's medical facility. He was transferred by helicopter to a hospital for further examination.

Kubica, one of the rising stars of Formula One, was racing with the Toyota of Jarno Trulli and the Ferrari of Felipe Massa when he suddenly veered off course into the grass as they drove toward the hairpin turn.

Kubica's BMW Sauber slammed into the inside concrete wall, then somersaulted across the track in a shower of debris. It hit the outside wall and came to rest with what was left of his car on its side.

Man, saw this accident yesterday, it looked really tragic.
Fortunatelly our first F1 driver is already ok, and its possible he'll start in next week race :thumbs:
 
Testament to how well the F1 cars are engineered. That car did exactly what it was supposed to do on impact, pretty much absorb all the impact and disintergrate.
