2012 FORMULA 1 UBS CHINESE GRAND PRIX: RACE *** SPOILERS ***

No longer "Daddy's little boy".

 

Now thats great racing and entertainment. Will be we watching this again today for sure!!!

 

Save Schu's misfortune, that was an AWESOME final 10 laps of the race. Kudos to Nico for getting the win (with a little help from Button's pit crew) and from both Button and Hamilton for getting 2nd and 3rd on a possibly ill-advised pit stop (I felt it was at the time, but they regained their positions).

Brass ones on Webber also...he drove like he owned the track and took it to his teammate.

As for Ferrari, Fernando gave away a couple of positions with his off-moment, but I think he's earned some forgiveness for it.

Take away the final 10 laps, and I was going to complain about how they've seemingly taken away passing in F1 this year.

 

Merc eats it's tyres now = BS.

 

+1 to all.

'If Schu didn't have bad luck, he'd have no luck at all'

Good to see him smiling on the wall though. Class act

 

Schu was already passed by the McLaren duo before his misfortune, but it would have been nice to see him in the mix with all of those other F! champs.

Agree about the "most intense boring race ever". If not for the final 10 laps...

 

Last time it was 1955 for the silver arrows.

 

No guessing where that trophy came from.

 

Let's see what happens on a hot track like Bahrain to be sure.

 

"been there, done that...."

He's probably the ONLY guy on the grid who would smile in that situation. Sucks that he was foiled by the racing gremlins. TOTAL class act, giving his teammate that big gap by controlling the cars behind him.

 

Hahaha same place as everything else.

 

Big day in Stuttgart here! Mercedes and all 3 cars are company powered.

 

Target?

 

So I thought Andreas said Petronas invested in the wrong team....

 

True, plus the fact the others will be playing catch up with F-duct pipes a plenty.

 

Yes I bet.

 

Looks like Jensen DEFINITELY got the better of the Michibada sisters. Yikes!

 

For all of the hand-wringing about Red Bull, they are right there in the championship mix.

 

Don't forget; Fchat about to go down for a few minutes now

 

I wonder if LewHam's earrings match his skirt.

 

GOod point!

 

Kimi running 2nd at the closing stages and ended up 14th that surprised me.

 

Lotus expected to lodge a complaint with Ross Brawn's mother about SuperDRS.
