    I've got a feeling seb will get a penalty for this. As soon as it happened I was shouting give the position back...but to no avail :(.

    That WILL move Raikkonen up to third though :D.
    If they're nice they'll swap places about but I doubt it'll happen.

    Bloody good race by Alonso, kept his head cool with button all over him. The Ferrari has improved a ****load since the first GP, and certainly isn't the slowest car anymore.

    The Mercedes has slumped, but that pit call was idiotic. Throwing away a certain 6th (pitting from 5th).

    Kimi was FANTASTIC in the opening 25 laps, what a man!

    Niki carrying a few extra pounds these days.....

    I kind of agree with Seb - He just gave him room rather than doing a Rev and punting 'em both off.

    "That' racin'!"

    hill has a point, everyone was taking advantage of this tracks run off areas ....IMO still, the stewards won't do much ....'maybe'? a 20 sec penalty on next race, but i'd be very surprised i they decide to affect this races finish order!

    great win for Fred & the Scuderia

    Kind of agree on the Seb overtaking move. He definitely did get an advantage, but the argument about not being able to see Button & not wanting to take them both out on the last lap carries weight. Add to that the fact the Fred (& many others) took the same line as Seb many times throughout the lap whilst trying to keep others at bay.

    Perhaps a 5p grid penalty?

    2.3 second stopped for Jenny - Wow!....... I believe they're saying sub 2 is possible now!

    Awesome stuff! - Even the post race highlight show is awesome. Please remember the poor folks here who are waiting for yet another delayed race on Fox! - Careful of spoilers kids, ;)

    2.4 no? Awesome fast though :). Good for my pool, it even has fastest pit stop times. Next year I'll make one for all of us, atm only 4 people are in my pool and we all want more. I'm sure we can get 10 orso from here involved! Botswana support sucks...

    even though i'm wanting button to have stayed ahead of vettel, i don't think a penalty would be right IMO ...we'll see what they say?

    Few points :)

    GREAT race by Alonso! Fantastic win :D

    Vettel will obviously be penalized 20 seconds later for overtaking outside of the track.

    Button is just such a genuinely nice dude.

    Hambone is a crybaby. He should grow up!

    Massa is back to his old self. Sack him!

    No; a friend of mine in botswana made one, we sent out invites to other F1 friends/fans in BW and south Africa but we're only with 4 of us...would be a bit more fun if we had more involved.

    Just a fun one, for bragging rights :).

    Watching the highlights, seems to me they were *all* making that runoff area a part of the track on occasion.

    My 02c; Slapped wrists, no penalty. We'll see soon enough I guess.

    Bwah, bwah, bwah! He was obviously quicker at the time and has every right to unlap himself.

    that 2.4 sec pit stop for button surely made his race!
