Well done DC!

I've never been a fan of David Coulthard's, but I was geniunely pleased seeing how well he did and how solid Red Bull looked today - especially considering what a pitiful final race Jaguar had 2004.

"My" team didn't score any points though (blame the weather), but hey, there's always the next race.

Overall, this was an exciting opening of the season. Can't wait for Malaysia.

(Oh, you don't know what I'm talking about? That's fine, that means you wouldn't really care even if I told you...)

    Surprised to find a Formula-1 post on msdn!

    Which team are u rooting for anyways? I have always been an anti-Ferrari and find myself supporting Mc'Laren over the last few years (a lil disappointed when Hakkinen left).

    Anyhoo, nice to see someone on msdn talk about F1

    And guess what?

    All the modelling software and supercomputing clusters in F1 run on GNU/Linux.

    Tikora, on what basis do you say all modelling software in F1 runs on GNU/Linux? I can't imagine that any one person knows all the software in use by all the teams.

    When many mechanical engineers are trained on software such as MATLAB running in Windows, why make them switch platforms?

    I agree that there's a more compelling reason to beleave any clusters will be running Linux, but again I doubt any one person knows what every team uses.

    On a lighter note, great to see F1 discussed on MSDN! I'm hoping for a great battle between McLaren and Renault this season, with Ferrari watching from behind.

    Yeah, but can you do this -- Indy Racing League Builds Real-Time Scoring Application in Less Than Five Weeks (http://www.microsoft.com/resources/casestudies/CaseStudy.asp?CaseStudyID=15150) -- with anything on GNU/Linux? I doubt it.
