Button and hamilton both had good races despite the pair of them losing a good chunk of time, one in the pits and one behind perez.

Can hamilton win this by being mr consistent while button seems to be straight to the 'well if that hadn't have happened' comments at the end of the race, seems like they have rubbed off on each other too much.

Also LOL at the bbc not having a clue with the constructors championship and jakes 'well as you would expect red bull at the top'.
 
It did for me. Can't imagine how stoked Webber must have felt. Great to see him take Vettel, especially considering Vettel had a bit more choice with tyres given his 11th pos quali.

But man, those Williams. I think they'll be up there with McL, RBR and Merc within the next year. I hope, at least.


Ahaha. Check that shit-eating grin. Fucking loved it.

I found it quite interesting that he passed off Mark passing him as just down to tyres fading but Mark looked quicker throughout anyway
 
How do I get the forum in the iPlayer? the two F1 channels and the Forum are all not working or not F1.

Yeah, I think there's definitely some misdirected bitterness there. Never really seems to give his teammate credit. But I may just be projecting though.
 
Vettel has Webber's #2 driver facial hair from 2011 ;)

After the shitty saturday i think it's a great result for him. He made a Bad decision with the car that compromised his quali, but after that, being only a position after your team mate with a much slower car i think it's really t'he best result we could have hoped for him. He has also had a great strategy. I wonder if that's been his decision...

Crazy, crazy result. Unlucky for Button but it's fantastic to see Rosberg grab his first pole and first win on the same weekend :)

Good result for Hamilton again too, got a bit unlucky and held up in traffic again today and even after his penalty before the weekend began picks up another 3rd place. Consistency proves.

Also, Webber > Vettel ;)
 
Surprised the Apple logo want covered up like with the ipad lol

He was holding his hand fairly carefully, missed it a couple of times, though.

Jenson being classy about the pitstop incident. "I made a mistake in Malaysia, someone else made a mistake here, it happens"
 
Kimi could've easily got 6th. It was very clear from the beginning of the race, I think I even posted it here.

They, somehow, thought they could go till the end and lost, big time

ah well, next race Iceman :D !!

Kimi on Podium in Bahrain, who wants to bet?
 
Major problem for Ferrari is low fuel running on used tires. Even Williams is faster in that phase of the race.

Alonso can keep up with others with heavy car, but in the last 1/3 of the race their pace drops like a stone...
 
Button is totally going to be a pundit/commentator for bbc after he retires.
As I mentioned a little while ago: There was a period in the ITV era when he was disqualified for a couple of races, and one of them (Monaco, I think) ITV snagged him and put him in the commentary box for it - and he did a great job.
I'd fully expect it to happen after he retires, but I don't think there's a retirement happening any time soon, though!


Edit: Monaco '05.

I really doubt their B-Spec car will be that much better. Fry didn't sound that confident about it.

Yeah they went for a two stopper but yeah Grojean's side of the garage did better, as for podium in Bahrain I can believe that:)

He/Lotus made a awfully silly choice to stay out too long at the end there, real shame.

Bahrain should suit the McLaren and Red Bulls better, probably the Lotus too, but we'll see.
