The guy always cracks me up! I've never ever seen a guy just go off driving somewhere random of his own accord in the middle of a race like that.
Noticed the difference how the more senior or should I say mature drivers like Kimi drove. Avoiding accidents even if you would not be penalized. First round just before Senna hit Vettel who bytheway was slow and going all over the road, Kimi had to drive off road to avoid hitting vettel. So vettel was lucky to avoid bigger crash the way he unnecessarily defended his position in the first lap. 2nd was the overtaking of Schumi when Kimi and Schumi were going almost wheels locked between 2-3 corners without crashing. Compared to that fight it was a bit dissapointing how easily Schumi let Vettel pass him.
Still overall a solid season for Kimi, not a single DNF!!! With the young crash kings driving around the mid pack that is pretty good result.

The problem is the young guys think you have to do all your overtaking in the first lap. It's like when you play a F1 game. You dive up the inside into turn 1 and crash a few cars but you overtake about 15 cars aswell. The older, experienced drivers know the race is not over in lap 1. Just look at Vettel in Abu Dhabi and Interlagos. When the young guys learn this they're going to be great drivers.

Interlagos *would* have been over for Vettel on lap 1 were it not a wet race. It also wouldn't have been as exciting a race as it was, so a big thank you to the entertainment gods.

Maybe that's the case, yes. But it still proves my point.
