+1 2nd & 4th & up to 2nd in the WCC ain't bad at all. Monday morning QB's as always..... Good interview with Adrian - I'm *loving* this coverage.
Same here. It's much more entertaining and lively, as compared to the normal reporting of what happened during the race.
Actually I believe they played their strategy just right. Starting on hards was clearly the way for Fred because the softs really take a hit with this Ferrari. Had Fred started on softs, the tires would have probably fallen off in a big way and Webber would have taken the lead earlier, and who knows what else could have happened then.
Nice SKY pit lane post-race interview with Adrian. Good insight into the tire strategy and the "long view" of the championship. Go 'Zo! Forza SF! Congrats to Phil!
Ferrari have really earned their second place in the constructors they are at now. Very impressed with how they turned that pile around.
GREAT stuff in the interview with Webber's race engineer, Cairon Pilbeam! This guy has a Masters and a Doctorate in Engineering and was a pioneer in simulation modeling in the 'Nineties. Awesome!
I reckon the tires did just fine today. I'm with Fpiloto - I don't think Fred would have done any better the other way round, and probably a lot worse - Clifford + options + full fuel doesn't work well.......
+1...he had to drive the softs at some point and his hards went off too soon. I think 2nd is good, better than the 3rd I thought he was doomed to fall to.
Anyone know, is it possible to watch F1 live on the internet? BBC iPlayer used to broadcast this live for free (with a proxy server connection). They don't appear to broadcast live anymore.
Championships are won by consistently scoring. Alonso did just that, so I don't feel bad for him. 2nd place isn't as exciting, but the points still are. Or to put it differently: Webbo and Vettel will continue to take away from each others' points. At least one problem Fred doesn't have.
Michael interview is entertaining as always. ''I was doing the rain dance in the car, waiting for it to rain.''
Checo is *pissed* - Not often a rookie speaks out like this; Weren't they going to "investigate after the race"? I think he may be red carded for a while....
