Good to see that the Stewards saw it as a racing incident and nothing else.

 

[Orgun]

What a boring race

 

[Dilly]

Fuck yeah, Kubica.

 

[kharma45]

That was... easy for Kubi.

 

[Dead Man]

Fuck yeah, Kubica.

Yep, takes Massa, nice work.

 

[Lucius86]

Great drive from Kubica here.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Kubica is godly this season.

 

[Dilly]

Look at him go, love his mentality.

I want to see him winning championships! I really hope Renault keeps progressing next season.

 

[navanman]

Kubica making this an interesting race, he should really be in a better car.

 

[Dead Man]

Kubica is godly.

Fixed.

Shit, that was smooth.

 

[Dilly]

c'mon, that FI is next.

Fucking hell, great overtake.

 

[navanman]

That was nearly an exact Webber, Hamilton crash again.

 

[Lucius86]

Overtaking - a how to guide by Robert Kubica

Take heed Vettel....

 

[Frawdder]

Hamilton take note, THAT is how you overtake someone!

 

[Mush]

KUBICA

*BOWS*

 

[Dilly]

Even though last season was disappointing as a Kubi fan, this season is so awesome.

 

[Lucius86]

Vettel take note, THAT is how you overtake someone!

fixed.

 

[Mush]

BBQ anyone?

 

[Stop It]

Kovalainen fails at pit entry, is clearly on fire!

Wtf were the Lotus pit crew/engineers and Kov himself thinking?

 

[Lucius86]

Kovalinen is my new hero.

 

[navanman]

Race over , has to be a safety car.

 

[brotkasten]

The race is on fire. :lol

 

[kharma45]

Hold it together Fernando.

 

[Dead Man]

Woeful. Marshal failure as well. Drivers should not have to become firemen!

 

[Pterion]

Not a good race for a Mclaren fan. Oh well...

 

[navanman]

Woeful. Marshal failure as well. Drivers should not have to become firemen!

The marshalling has been terrible all weekend. Slow to recover cars from track and get marshalls to the cars.

 

[olore]

Fucking stupid "wave" winning salute Alonso does, the Talking Duck

Also, Vettel seems to have changed to the better, more calculating and composed. Perhaps boring?

 

[megateto]

Congrats, Nando, great race!! But Vettel did it great too, as well as Kubica.

The championship get's even more interesting!

 

[Britprog]

Great drive by Alonso and Vettel, very disappointed for Hamilton. Still not out of the championship yet!

 

[Jinjo]

Hamilton take note, THAT is how you overtake someone!

You're telling Hamilton, probably the driver who has made the most overtakes stick this season to take a lesson in overtaking? Please. This was such a 50/50 incident. Maybe not everyone would've made that move, but you have to admire a true racing spirit like that. I would've done the same.

I was kind of torn between rooting for Hamilton or Webber, but I guess now I can focus all my attention on Webber. I want that guy to win the championship so much. He is such a like-able guy and has been incredibly underrated for years. Also, it's kind of cool to have an F1 veteran take their first WDC. Button last year, now Webber (hopefully).

Crappy weekend being a McLaren fan indeed. But congrats to Alonso. He has catapulted himself right back into contention.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Amazing race. Not that pleased with the result.

 

[megateto]

Fucking stupid "wave" winning salute Alonso does, the Talking Duck

It represents little birds, just to let you know XD.

 

[DrM]

Vettel is nothing but a chicken when it comes to overtaking - he could easily attack Alonso but no.

 

[Mr. Sam]

Fucking stupid "wave" winning salute Alonso does, the Talking Duck

Shoulda done the hand jive.

 

[Lucius86]

Is it me, or has Vettel shown a lot of maturity this race?

 

[NHale]

It's funny how Barrichello continues to do a great championship but nobody talks about him. When Rosbers was doing something similar with the Williams, it was all praise for him.

 

[megateto]

Grande, Fernando, grande!!!

 

[olore]

It represents little birds, just to let you know XD.

Really? What`s the story on that?

 

[Wax Free Vanilla]

nice lotus fire. i haven't seen one like that for ages. :lol


last one diniz '96?

 

[Mush]

Is it me, or has Vettel shown a lot of maturity this race?

Yeah. He has no reason to rage over second, he's still in the fight. RB pick up constructor points while Hammy self-destructs around him. Who's next I wonder?

 

[Mobius 1]

That was a cold handshake :lol

 

[megateto]

Really? What`s the story on that?

Just a Spanish thing XD.

 

[Lucius86]

Yeah. He has no reason to rage over second, he's still in the fight. RB pick up constructor points while Hammy self-destructs around him. Who's next I wonder?

I mean, after this season I HATE Vettel - but he deserves serious kudos today.

Funny, this race finished with the two drivers who annoy me the most on the top 2 steps of the podium. And they fully deserve it.

 

[Mush]

...and now some wise words from everyone's favourite Irish and Scottish duo.

 

[Dead Man]

Great drive from ALonso, Vettel I feel was just not able to challenge him in the race. Webber. Masterful, and lucky! Kubica, awesome again. Overall a much more interesting race than I expected.

 

[Juicy Bob]

In other news:

lol Schumacher

 

[eggerland]

Really? What`s the story on that?

It´s for her granny. He´s been doing that since he started racing when he was a boy. Her granny died recently BTW.

 

[Leunam]

Well, Texans better win today to make up for this race.

Nah, only partly joking. Kubica more than made up for Hamilton crashing out (not that that was Webbers fault or anything). Kubica beasting a quarter of the grid made the whole race worth it.

 

[Mush]

Vettel did the right thing by not challenging for the win. Sure, it would have been fun to watch, but after everything that happened mid-season, he's knows it's not the time to panic and do something hot headed like Lewis did. Looks like Vettel has learnt a lot from his experiences.

It wasn't entirely Lewis' fault, but that's still the second race in a row he's stuck his nose in when he shouldn't have and came off worse for it.

And although he didn't peep a word during the race, Button is still hanging on too. He could play spoiler in the races to come.

 

[Jinjo]

nice lotus fire. i haven't seen one like that for ages. :lol

Don't forget: "Rubens you're on fire. Like properly on fire." :lol
