My Ride: Ordered 550i ED on 9/24/05. Titanium silver, priority one seating (black), steptronic, sports package, premium sound system, active steering, comfort access, power rear sunshades, navigation, head up display, rear door air bag
Holy smoke -- that boy can drive. To come from seventeenth to first in a Formula 1 race is nothing short of mind-boogling. Making up 5 seconds on the Renault in the last 4 laps -- awesome. Forgive me Nascar but you have nothing close to that kind of excitement. Congrats to Kimi and McLaren.

You are absolutely correct!
That was awsome. It is a bummer that they didn't have better reliability for their cars early on in the season. If they had then he would be World Champion right now and not that "Fred Alfonso".

It was a good race and Kimi and Alonso put on a very entertaining year in F1.

Awesome race and Suzuka is such a technical course too!
The US Grand Prix was a joke to say the least. M. Schumacher's win there wasn't really contested.
BMW never got a win, but did reach the podium at least.
I really hope F1 catches on a lot more here in the US, but proably not going to happen anytime soon if ever.
Well, Shanghai is the last stop for 2005. I hope BMW makes some changes for the next season.
