Anyone know WTF just happened?? A new world champion was welcomed. And we waved goodbye to one or two (Ice Man, King's Man at Williams, and Italian Jesus to name a few). Mostly we suffered through the FIA making super good choices again and again. At least we got one last radio b/w Michael and Toto (they kept it super zen).
