As an F1 fan I was glued to the screen this afternoon, and what a race it turned out to be! But I won't get into that now. I thought I'd highlight another aspect of F1 for those who maybe weren't into it before...
THE DRIVERS:

Today Jenson Button won the 2009 F1 Drivers Championship. Awesome.
That smile - also awesome.

Mark Webber - one of the taller drivers & won this afternoon's Brazilian Grand Prix.
He's Australian, but you won't find him there - he lost his license, something about speeding?

Sebastian Vettel
He's 22 and finished 2nd in the 2009 Championship race.
There are more drivers (20 this season, but with the credit crunch biting and the imminent loss of a few teams there'll be a few less next year).
And then there's the car. It's fast, really fast. Complicated, aerodynamic and with loads of G-Force.

Unfortunately there's only one race left this season (in two weeks time in Abu Dhabi). Check out the website for more info www.formula1.com
