From the post Q interview on th F1 site....

Q: (Alvaro Faes - La Nueva Espana) Sebastian, when you got out of your car, you took a look in the cockpit of the other cars.
SV: No, you obviously can’t see much. I was having a look at the steering wheels of the other cars.

Bro-dude, how lame is that comment?

"It's about my eyes you fool, It's about my eyes.

The psychedelic voices say
That I should give the game away
Two and a dog can be so cruel
But I won't give up like a fool
I'll give my all and keep my cool

Early days, anything can happen.....

[Giblet]

Schumi trying new flexi wing.

[andrew]

I think it is a bit too flexible. Back to the drawing board.....

[Goran2812]

about time he passed him... lol

[Traction]

Alonso is absolutely flying.....Will Vettel be up tp the challenge???...dun dun dun daaaahhhhh...

[andrew]

The FIA need to give both HRT cars bigger wing mirrors!

I can see Alonso winning this when Red Bull screw up the tyre strategy again.

[Goran2812]

statistically, Ferrari are the ones prone to screwing up the strategy... hope they don't mess things up today!

end finger boy responds to Fred... gap up to 3.2

the mclaren race pace is a mith im afraid. lets look at just the last 3 races where theyve claimed to have superior race pace.

spain: they were helped greatly by alonso holding up the bulls for the first couple of stints, and then for whatever reason they were the only team able to make the super hard tyre work.

monaco: vettel pulled away from button in te first stint, and then after that vettel went onto the primes and thus ran completely different stratagies, how they can assume they were the fastest is beyond me.

canada: the conditions, had the race been dry i would of been like today, slightly worse pace but tyres falling off and finishin a good 30 seconds behind like turkey.


ferrari are the kings of race pace, and this is coming from a mclaren fan.

[Sean H]

the only people saying Macca has a better race pace are the fan boys, you have to weigh the message with the messenger...

I am sure somebody will say Macca had a great day, they were just 30 seconds slower than RB and Alonso.

[andrew]

Well the race promised to be boring and it sadly lived up to this expectation.

Another Vettel win makes up for the poor quality of the race though. Very mature and controlled drive. =D>

At least Hamilton didn't crash. that benefits everyone!
