    They were next to each other at the DRS measuring point and thus Hamilton was allowed to use DRS to get his position back. As I said a dozen times before, it really really makes the races artificial...

    If the race finishes in the current order... VET, HAM, WEB, BUT... does that mean Red Bull have clinched the Constructor's Championship this weekend?

    All the best,
    Andrew.

    Haha as I said if Ham keeps Web behind him to the end he has done real well.

    I would agree.. but what do we know? Truth is, it's a massive failure, because he stated on pole, so he should immediately kill himself, since it's obvious he's a washed up has-been with no talent and he can't race or pass without crashing into people.

    Of course, it's not the fault of the DRS rules that Webber is unable to pass Hamilton even with it. It's just another example of the artificialness*. I'd rather see less overtaking (we'd still have more than enough with the Pirelli tires) than all that artificial actionl.


    *I'm talking about Hamilton immediately getting his position back because coincidentally being in the measuring spot.

    The Ferraris always look so brown when the race is near the end... it's almost like the paint attracts brake dust more than others

    Hard to congratulate Vettel, he seemed to have it easy as usual.

    Men of the race have to be Hamilton, Webber, Button, and Alonso in that order.

    The Hamilton/Webber fight was fantastic. It takes real men with big balls to provide such entertainment. Well done both of them.

    yeah, that was a better race than I was expecting.

    Alonso out of fuel?

    Rosberg too?

    Agreed, and I have to commend Hammy for keeping his head on right. I still don't like him though. :D
