    In any case he'll have a tough time riding off into the sunset (literally) on lap one.

    Will being out of Lewis' shadow help or hurt?

    I think Max's gremlins made a surprise visit. I won't be unhappy if Vettel gets sent to the back of the field. It will keep Alonso's chances alive.

    wonder what will happen RE Vettel...hope it's nothing serious and they just spotted he hadn't enough fuel in the car for the FIA to get a sample if he continued or if it's an alternator failure (I'm sure that's allowed to be replaced?).

    That lap by Hamilton was sensational. Raikkonen doing well too!

    He shut down before the pit ordered him to.
    I don't think F1 cars have fuel gauges.

    How do you know that he shut it down before he was ordered to? Radio messages are delayed, sometimes by more than 2 laps...

    Won't they send him to the back if he didn't have enough fuel?

    I'm certain the situation will sort itself out. I wonder if that slap against the wall may have caused a problem for him?

    Agree, great job by Hamilton breaking up the Red Bull domination.

    Seb didn't look too thrilled. Either he's upset because Lewis and Mark are ahead of him, or that car ran out of fuel.

    I think Maranello should bribe Loldonado w/ a 1-yr seat at Ferrari if he takes out Seb & let Alo pass thru.

    So Ted suspects that Renault saw a fuel pressure drop on the telemetry due to lack of fuel...bum bum bum, if that's the case Seb is starting in the back of the grid to keep his buddy Schumi company.
