Webber and Alonso raced very poorly and ran out of juice before the finish.
How did they fell behind and didn't even bother to catch up to the top five points.
Do you mean that they ran out of petrol?? They didn't.mkw0101 wrote:Webber and Alonso raced very poorly and ran out of juice before the finish.

Indeed, and wasnt it the case that Massa pitted even before Alonso? That would made it even more stupid, I mean, the strategy didnt work with Massa, why should it work with Alonso whom was like 5 seconds max in front of him? They just threw their title away there.jon-mullen wrote:They pitted Webber when his tires started graining and Alonso pitted to cover Webber, even though the team should've known he was racing Vettel at that point. No real mystery, just poor race strategy.
Very satisfying indeed!Rob W wrote:I can't help but feel that Alonso losing out on the title so closely was a perfectly fitting result considering the team orders incident earlier in the season. It feels like poor or unsporting behaviour has been rewarded too often in F1 and to see Ferrari losing by such a small margin - watching their chances get suffocated slowly while stuck behind non-challenging cars for 40 laps - was quite satisfying.
I know I'm going to regret this, but would you tell me just what " poor or unsporting behaviour" you're refering to?Rob W wrote: It feels like poor or unsporting behaviour has been rewarded too often in F1 .
