    Ferrari FAIL. They didnt even try. They spoke Italian rather than speak PIT STOP!

    I don't know what's up with Jensen...seems to have lost the magic somehow.

    If they pitted Alonso right after HAmbone, he would've finished second and be leading the championship with more than the two points Ham has on him now.
    The tifosi will be waiting with pitchforks back home.
    Can't believe the most experienced team in F1 threw away a good quail, the podium and the Championship lead with such a bonehead move.

    They didn't learn from Renault's mistake earlier this year...

    I'm not sure how many times you can give them "second chances" but I think they've had about 50. :)

    Yep, hindsight what it is, Zo should have pitted immediately after Seb did.

    Awesome race! Congrats to Hami, Lettuce and the tire whisperer. Great to see Sauber on the podium.

    This season is just getting better and better. Best since 2007.

    Nope. Ferrari should have read what the tire situation was and pitted at the same time, if not even sooner.

    He may have come out ahead of Lewis due to the slow pit stop

    I'm all for gambling to get a win, but I don't think the situation required the gamble...

    Agreed, but if they weren't proactive they should have at least been reactive.

    The tire situation is such that the teams have no idea how long they'll last.
    A one stop strategy, had it worked, would have been hailed as brilliant.
    They took a gamble, and lost. A team with a second rate car has to go for the long shots.
