You knew what I meant but for the terminally anally retentive, here's a RETCON:
During the period of the worst weather conditions in the race he was 6 seconds a lap faster.

Actually due to unexpectdly entering sleep mode during the second half of the race, I didn't see that bit so only had your description (below) on which to base my understanding.
"under identical conditions for all drivers he was 6 seconds a lap faster than anyone else"
I apologise for being idiotic enough not to realise the unstated time constraints that applied!
Yours,

Loved that race, but disagree to some point. It seemed to be more a team race then driver, not to take anything away from the home town guy. The teams decisions on tires and pits in combination with truly slick conditions played a huge part in who finished and didn't.
But, halfway thru the season...should be exciting to the finish.

Team decisions affected the outcome for a few of the drivers, at the worst weather conditions Hamilton was still 6 seconds a lap faster than his *nearest competitor* under equal conditions and faster than that against the rest of the field.

I'm not a big tennis fan however that was one exciting game.
Anyone else watch it?

Yes, only because they replaced my shows with it.

Whenever I hear that phrase it reminds me of a cranky old woman furiously smoking away in a housecoat and curlers somewhere in a trailer park in a small town.

I used to love watching tennis but just haven't watched it the last 5 years or so. I'm glad Venus finally got to beat Serena at Wimbeldon.

Hell yeah! I'm a big Nadal fan and I went from extasy to agony and back again many time throughout this final. It was great. Now I hope Nadal will master hard court too and we'll se the two battleing for the US Open title as well.

The Simpsons is NOT a kids show. My kids are not allowed to watch it.

Makes sense to me - kids love breasts waaay more than satire. Well, up to a certain age, at least.

Nope. My love of satire will never outweigh my love of breasts.

Well, I thought it was disturbing. Much as I love satire...

I'm glad that I managed to put your mind at rest that satire isn't at the top of my list.
OK - I've just heard one of the daftest lines in an advert drift in from the living room; this one for a sanitary towel.

I quote that at my wife when the "red tide" comes in once a month and she's cranky, she either laughs or hits me over the head with something, it's 50/50.

Tautology. It's a mathematical formula, Red Tide = Cranky.

When I was a kid I didn't like Simpsons because I was to small to get their jokes, so I didn't watched it. Tom&Jerry, Bugs, and all the other classics were much cooler to me then.

My favourite shows were tooken off just for the olympics. I am so mad. They should have a channel for this and stop changing the schedules of my shows for this crap.
