[What's Burning?]

I liked seeing Peter bump his way through the crowd to get pre-race driver interviews on the starting grid. Not that I have anything against Buxton.

Yeah, hope Buxton picks this up again.

I love it when Eddie Jordan has a rant.

This sums up today's race. I'd think everyone would rather have the old layout, much faster, and I liked the beauty of going through the trees.

Going through a tree would hurt at high speed.

Shh

With everything else going on, it's not too important a topic, but what about Force India with a major tire screw up?

That's the WTF of the season.

What happened to them? I thought Sutil pitted several times for the sake of putting good times as he was out of the fight, they didn't mention anything in my broadcast.

They gave Sutil three softs and one hard, and the opposite to Liuzzi.

OMG I don't know what to say other than it's hilarious. I can only imagine the commentators completely lost if they had noticed anything wrong.

Eddie is brilliant! he is rite soo much of the time!

No, because it was a failure.

Webber failed.

He failed to do the job. In the end BOTH McLarens overtook him. Although I can't remember how Button got in front.

Vettel, perhaps focussed too much on keeping Alonso out. His mistake though, was to let 2 Ferraris past. It would be better to have Massa in front of you than have Alonso. I noticed that when Vettel saw Massa coming up the outside of him, he became indecisive and moved away from Alonso to try in vain to beat MAssa into the corner.

So Massa did Alonso a favour.

And if Vettel had managed to keep Alonso behind him, we wouldn't have seen the controversy in yesterday's race.

But a good win by Vettel. He set the fastest lap, and by the next round he will be given the full 25 points he doesn't deserve. I of course, am expecting both Ferrari drivers to receive added on penalties.

Maybe we'll see a McLaren or two on the podium.

^^^^Webber's race was totally finished when the strategy fools pitted him too early, thereby putting him back into bad traffic.

A bad day for F1.

But then again would you want them to crash? Or be tactful. Its hard to write it down what i mean but it is wrong.

They should of gone around it a little better,

Well I have to admit that I actually fell asleep watching this race.

"OK lewis, anything you can do to save fuel..." this isnt racing.

If they had a faster car, they'd be able to put in a few more liters. It's not racing because at this point McLaren don't have the car to go toe to toe with Red Bull and now Ferrari.

[thechainrule]

i guess so.

This. The pit stop timing was a disastrous move. It wasn't Webber's fault. And then he had problems in the car, something oil.

[Fred_C_Dobbs]

In terms of driving skills, Vettel demonstrates he is every bit the wunderkind he's been billed as. Why then does he insist on these hyper-aggressive start tactics that never turn out well for him and only belie the fact that he has the fastest car on the circuit?
