    Very entertaining race! Aside from a sound that doesn't translate well to television, I'm finding the races far more enjoyable than last season. Honestly, I think it's all of the bugaboos holding Hamilton back that makes it so dramatic this year. In the end, I still believe he'll hold the WDC title. His ability to respond to adversity has been very impressive this year.

    point is nico hasnt really been tested much this season with having lewis right next to him at the start. In every race aside from monaco that they both finished and started close together on the grid rosberg lost.

    just wait till qualy positions are equal again - nico will lose erry time

    erry time

    Brembo gremlin. That failure had nothing to do with Merc, rather with Lewis' own choice in brake supplier.

    He prefers the brembos cause they are better per Lewis. He didn't use them in the race today because there wasn't enough for brembo to do a technical analysis as to the failure. MB uses all three brake manufacturers.

    This weekend, maybe, but so often?

    I respect the heck out of his talent but when someone has so much misfortune you begin to wonder.

    It's my understanding Brembo's aren't necessarily better, they just provide a feel Lewis is more comfortable with.

    Great footage of Massa's first turn crash looks spectacular in slo-mo, glad he wasn't hurt.

    Watching Ricci v Alonso I have to say Ricci is bloody brilliant for a newbie, a superb battle.

    LOL , well I can say after watching a replay Lewis is unbelievable at braking late, so it makes sense if thats the case.

    In interview he was a bit down beat, and that IMO is because the racing gods of luck disappear as soon as he gets within sniffing distance of Nico.

    He says he doesn't need luck, just no bad luck.

    Agree. Fix the horrid sound and ugly cars and I am more than satisfied. The racing is good.

    Moral victories dont mean squat.

    Heck of a race. Really enjoyed it.

    Thought ALO may snag a podium but the Ham's Merc was too fast and their strategy at the end sucked relative to Vettel
