I'm waiting to see what the stewards say about the petrov/schumacher incident and the fuss about crossing the solid white lines out of the pits.

I have a feeling the pit lane stuff was covered in detail during the driver briefing as far as what was and wasn't acceptable.

I do have to say it was nice to hear Schumacher be understanding about getting hit by Petrov.

Best part was hearing alonso say "I give up"

What was all that about? Give up? then pull over hop out.

Yes it was. My respect for him grows with each race. "Its racing, we're next to each other on the track and this happens." Refreshing change from felippe's refrain.

acosmichippo kudos to MSC indeed also I should've mentioned Alguersuari how flippin fast fast was that STR in a straight line? I'm only surprised Rosberg kept him behind as long as he did.

I thought Algy pass on Rosberg was due to low fuel on Rosberg's car and so it looked very fast? I think I heard Coulthard said something about that.

Yeah it was a fuel issue. The Toro Rossos were the fastest in a straight line today, with Mercedes 2nd. But the overtake on the last lap was Rosberg trying to just make it to the finish.

[acosmichippo]

yeah, it must have been that. you don't get passed like that by an inferior car without something being wrong. And then he stopped on the inlap after the flag.

[Hamilonso]

Did anyone find that race incredibly boring?

Vettels overtake was more tactically sound then raw balls, Hamilton should of kept the inside tight not let the sneaky bugger through there, although today the red bull was clearly the superior car.

Nice to see Hamilton on the podium again, also nice and also not nice to see Ferrari race Massa, who looked good today and also hold up Alonso massively lol.

Another Vettel win and Red Bull winning the constructors championship. Job done!!

Now officially begins the autumn testing season for 2012...

Only for Red Bull Racing

Lewis's defensiveness made my day but i would prefer the place 1st.Btw in the race i noticed that there wasnt much spectators as i expected.There were less than Turkey,apperaently,despite they did more ads.

Alonso: "I give up". Nice try pal!

Trying to lul Button into a false sence of security?

[What's Burning?]

Interesting you noticed the same elfinitty... the grandstands were half empty. Even at the end of the race right across from were the cars were brought into parc ferme, there were a massive amount of empty seats

Congrats to Red Bull for putting the final stamp on the season, let's bring on 2012 shall we? Good performance by Vettel, the race for McLaren was lost early on the cars just don't come alive until lap three and by that time time it was all a defensive race for 2nd not even the safety car helped. Nice racing though for 2nd through 5th... almost a microcosm for the season eh?

It was actually good seeing Webber actually be a factor in a race, so good on him. Another difficult to pass in circuit, the grounds looked disheveled, and the seats were empty. I think the countdown for their exit from the F1 calendar has begun.

Good racing between Hamilton and Webber, really enjoyed that battle there at one stage, hard but clean racing. Also kudos to Algey, Perhaps thats another step to retaining his drive at STR next season over Buemi if Red Bull want Ricciardo in a STR.
