That was closer than I thought it would be and first time since Monza last year that Vettel hasnt started on the front row.
Given Webbers starts recently I can see Hamilton leading at turn 1.

Indeed it is. Sure Michael would agree! LOL

Too soon to tell anyway, if Vettel wins 6 titles though there can't be anymore denying


Schumi did win from the front a lot but he also came through the field a lot as well.  He was also not always in the best car.

Good to see someone othre than Vettel winning. The team orders thing didnt bother me much this time since it didnt look like Webber was paying any attention to them!

Excellent race from Perez, stayed with Rosbergs faster Merc all race, and unfortunate for Di Resta that he lost a possible points finish to pitstop error.


Oh I'm aware of how stupid he is and that he still says them, but damn it that's what I want!
Like I said to James man, I'd kill for some color in the sport and stupidity generally is the best type!

Ah yes. Not live of course, actually I looked it up because you mentioned it LOL but I did see that one.
Hami in one of his more questionable moments BUT that's the type of stuff that just doesn't happen these days! So honestly, I was glad. Stupid? Unnecessary? It doesn't matter, at least it was said and I'll always take that over saying nothing.

We need another Eddie Irvine. haha He's another driver I wish I could've seen at the time.
