alonso, webber, vettel, button...... discuss:



ps- the quote of the race had to be webber:"stupid young kids F***ing it all up"

[stonemonkey]

It looks like it was Vettels fault but was maybe inexperience that caught him out, Webbers reaction is totally understandable but I'm sure Vettel is as upset (if not more). Still don't really know what happened with Alonso and Button just seemed to have a few problems throughout.
Difficult conditions adding an element of unpredictability.

i would discuss two things:
1- the decision of the FIA of starting with heavy rains, as every decision made by the FIA must be undersigned by each team, and Ferrari didn't. We will understand(or maybe not) what happened in the next hours, but that's a sad point for the FIA.
2- why that penalty to kubica for colliding with LH? this is the game, this is motorsports, he didn't done it intentionally, but most of all, LH was still in race after it although he lost a position. so why ralf hasn't been punished for the collision with Yamamoto with a 10 position shift? maybe becuase none of them is a 20 year old leader of the championship..

I can understand Webber being upset, but he's bad enough being a bigger crybaby than Alonso but now he's resorting to swearing. Imagine what his reaction would have been if it was somebody like Andrea De Cesaris taking him out?

Disaster for Williams today with Wurz almost taking out Massa, and as for Rosberg I think water will have got into the Toyota engine and caused the electrical fault, that's what Heidfeld looked to have had as well.

Still Lewis winning in such dominating style has made my day, James Hunt would be proud.

hats off to all the drivers, it takes a hell of alot of skill to drive in those conditions (even tho lewis had it easy cos no1 was in front of him) feel sorry for webber if he didnt have so much bad luck how many podiums would he of had in his career? he would surely be in contention for a top race seat....oh wells time to see a witch doctor i think

[Fact Man]

I don't consider LH to have done a great job. He wasn't challenged because he was in the front! So, we really can't tell how skilled he was had he been thrown towards the back and had to fight.

shame nico and nick had engine problems, nick drove well inspite of button trying to take him out. I was really warming to the performance of vettel until he took out Webber, so Vettel shouldnt be in f1 unless its permantely wet and there is no saftey car to confuse him! Webber could of won today shame.

Yes he was in front so he didnt get the spray but he was the one who had to test the track first, see where the rivers were how slippy etc, And for his first real test in rain he didnt put a foot wrong. I do feel really sorry fro webber and Vettel-inexperience on vettels part but you cat really blame him in those conditions

Interesting race, some good driving and some shithouse performances.

Alonso - unusually loose performance today, after he ended up in traffic after the 1st stop you could see he was trying a bit too hard.

Webber - unbelievable, would have been his best ever podium, understandably pissed off. His personal consistency (not the cars) shows he is a talented driver, and the points table doesnt quite reflect this (like rosberg).

Vettel - showed some great speed today but that doesnt mean anything if you cant hold it together, especially under the god damn safety car.

Solid performance as usual by raikkonen, and looks like Lewis may have it in the bag.

[TheDarkSide10]

Mudd is right about Vettel but he is pants in the dry relative to his team mate! Button caused an accident today, which was all strated by luis hamiltons erratic driving! 3 accidents hamitlon was partially responsible for!

[supeindesu]

Vettel just could demonstrate that he can take out of the race 2 drivers hitting them.

[stonemonkey]

Incredible comment supeindesu, not even FA entertained the notion that the damage he sustained had anything to do with his exit from the race (he did in fact say it wasn't).
Many mistakes were made by many drivers in such treacherous conditions but I find it quite sad to see such bitterness around the forum after such an entertaining and eventful race showing for the most a lot of extreme driving skill from all the drivers.

[mudd]

Looking back a few hours after the race a pretty valid point stonemonkey. Most of the drivers in the post race interviews said it was probably the hardest race theyve ever driven. Feeling a bit sorry for Vettel now too ..., on a different note was interesting to hear Mark Webber vomitted in his helmet a few laps into the race, and all things considered he can do some pretty impressive things with that Red bull. when it works.

LH done a GREAT job at least he kept it on the track, unlike his team mate. As for the the other drivers moaning, LH drove ok in the wet, why couldnt they

[certom]

i repeat...why that penalty to kubica???
