I think the light referred to may have been a yellow and red one for slippy surface not a normal yellow one

What colour was the lap counter at the top of the screen?

Congratulations to Vettel. Not the way I wanted it to go, I think he deserved a drivethrough for that collision with Senna, but it appears I am disagreeing with Vlad. See you in my office young man.

Lots of people seem to have seen things I didn't see. How was Vettel to blame for the collision with Senna. Another one I'm going to have to rewatch to see what was going on.

At least Lewis got fastest lap.....

Vettel was wide then cut back then senna was there

Lewis was unlucky. He was the fastest in the dry, like Hulk. In wet Vettel was amazing.

From the on-board footage, Vettel was taking the normal line and Senna seemed to be lining up to pass him. Racing incident I'd say.

Senna was on the apex of the corner, Vettel was not. Vettel then turns in sharply towards the apex and both cars collide. How was it not Vettel's fault?

Fernando just congratulated Vettel, cold, but respectful! Well done!


I will miss Schumi...

I will miss Schumi...

Me too. Mixed emotions for me after this race. Overjoyed at Vettel winning the title but saddened that I'll never see (the diver I consider to be the greatest F1 driver I have ever seen) Schumacher race in F1 ever again.

Re yellow light, on Sky television, Allan McNish stated that there was no doubt Vettel overtook through yellows. It's clear as day on replay, not slippery surface flag either, highly bizarre.

[vlad]

But just before that yellow light was the green light, what the hell were they doing on the track?!?!?!

Exactly, it was clear as day. Who else hopes Vettel is penalised with a time penalty, not just a 'reprimand'?

[vlad]

Caterham owes Petrov a lot!

But.. Vettel doesn't overtake during that 'green flag zone', he overtakes just after the next yellow flag

I need to see it. All I remember seeing was this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nC1AGFVOeb4 You see them going around the corner, and by the next shot, the accident is already in progress. I need another viewpoint to make any sense of this.
