Again. Webber is so disappointing. Redbull would be nowhere this year if it was up to Webber to score the championship.

Maldonado needs a quiet talking to out back of the garages. The guy is driving like an idiot.

I thought Red Bull screwed up his pitstop this race and pout him out of contention.

But yes, Webber has disappointed this year in comparison to Vettel.

he did not manage to overtake Button when he was 2sec faster, he did not manage to overtake Massa when he was faster, even with this bad pitstop he was a podium contender... but it is Webber.. he lost his confidence... the Massa of Red Bull he his... shame... because he is fast.

Alonso quite impressive to drag the Ferrarri around so effectively. Lewis is thinking "How is that s$%tbox keeping up with my car"

I don't disagree that Webber has disappointed this year, but there was nothing to be done after that screwed up pit stop.

Solid drive from Lewis and Fernando....it would have been a mighty battle for the lead had Vettel not had the puncture.

That was Lewis back at his mighty best. Kind of reminded me of Spa last year when nothing could head him. A long overdue (well not too long given that the race has only been around 2 years) Abu Dhabi win

Enjoyed that race. Good watching Hamilton and Alonso trading times on Live Timing, especially in traffic.

The backmarkers seemed to be a bit naughty at this race. Maybe it's tricky under the lights to see who is around you.

To be fair, we don't know they kind of "did." Vettel might have won it, or it might have still been Hamilton anyways. We don't know
