A New F1 Star

It certainly appears that Formula One has a new star:  Lewis Hamilton. Hamilton finishes on the podium for the Australian Grand Prix.   The following is from SportingLife.com:
"I was ecstatic and I still am," he said. "To be in my first Grand Prix, which is what I have been working for for so many years, and all the hard work is paying off. "I am extremely happy for myself and for the rest of the team.  I think it is a great starting point and a great foundation to build on for the rest of the season."
Biggest surprise other than Hamilton -- Ralf Schumacher finishing in the points.  Biggest disappointment -- Nick Heidfeld dropping out of a podium finish.
