It was a mixed season, more dominated by off-track action than on-track action.

Some races were quite good, others were the cure for insomnia.

Let's hope for a great 2010.

It surely wasn't a season like 2007 or '08. But I think it was quite good. Yes, we had some dull races. But remember Australia, Malaysia, China, Germany, Belgium, Japan (Qualifying) and Brazil. Those races were quite average sometimes even good. So I don't think it was really that bad.

But yeah sure, I hope 2010 will top the rankings of best season ever

Great one as usual. Apart from that Olav's commentary wasn't as good as previous years, I like :D

The season certainly stared off strong, both in terms of racing excitement and Brawn's performance. For the most part however, I found the racing pretty dull. Their seemed to be less overtaking this year compared to last, maybe because there were less wet races.

Hopefully 2010 won't feature as much off track controversy (Liegate, FOTA series, Crashgate, etc...)
Fingers Crossed for Raikkonen at McLaren!!

Force India TBH .. but Mclaren was quick and good in applying Force India's remedy. But main reason is Mercedes Engines :cool:

F1 2009 in short : Not quite interesting.
