The Monza, Italy F1 race just got finished.
For those that don't follow F1 or didn't have the chance to view the race, it will likely be heartwarming to hear that there were TWO Bimmer drivers on the podium.

Juan Pablo Montoya, BMW-Williams, known for his success in the KART series, took his first Formula One victory today.

Ralf Schumacher, BMW-Williams, the brother of current world champion Michael Schumacher, finished third with an immense gap to Michael Schumacher, Ferrari, who finished fourth.

Rubens Barrichello, Ferrari was second after a long, tight battle with both BMWs.

Both McLaren-Mercedes's had to stop the race after technical problems; David Coulthard, second in points for drivers' championship, had an engine blow up and Mika Häkkinen, foremer World champion, had to retire from the race after a broken gearbox.


From the wonderful world of Formula One,

Henkka
