Were you able to even get a glimpse at the screen with all those big packages gyrating near your face? Distraction... that's an understatement.

Not really, I think it would have been the same deal with Red Bull had Webber been on it with the car. In 2011 and 2013 you never really knew who'd come in 2nd and down. So the only real question becomes how many poinst more than 43 will you get.

This weekend's round was a very high average score.

:D:clap:

Thank you WB, and it's good to return to the top spot and take win number three of 2014. :thumbup:

Sadly, a damaging run of mediocre results mid-season has rendered P1 quite distant in the overall standings, but P2 is very, very achievable.

More of the same in Interlagos please! :drink:

Looking at your F1 interests, I'm afraid the list might be pretty short. But no worries, I'm highly liberal and open minded outside F1. :thumbup:
