Man, SV kicked a$$, and is leading the championship for the first time other than the last race of 2010 (when it counted the most
).
And yes, Perez was impressive. And he could have qualified in the top 10 easy if it wasn't for bad luck. I thought he just bought the seat with Slim's money, but the guy can definitely drive. At least better than many others there.
Finally, I don't think reliability can be judged on the first race, but will know more by the end of the 3rd. How many new engines and trannies this year? The same? It was 8 and 5, right?
