They going to call the race a few laps early due to bad light?

May as well finish it now with so few laps to go.

 

[moojito]

I really don't want to win that dour faced Spaniard to win the championship. Imagine Alonso and Raikonnen on the same team! Every night would be party night.

 

[Dilly]

GO ALONSO.

 

[magnificent83]

Hamilton and Alonso crash, Massa spins.

SCHUMACHER WINS.

so close on the Massa prediction

 

[Stop It]

Hamilton and Alonso crash, Massa spins.

SCHUMACHER WINS.

:lol :lol

Well, Hamilton is getting slower so I think they are just cruising to the line. Alonso must be laughing into his helmet.

After all of this, we're going to get the full race distance? Kudos to Whiting and the stewards for not listening to Vettel earlier and realising that it is still light enough to race.

I think there needs to be a change in how the radio calls are judged, anyone actively involved in the championship race should be ignored. The race should have been allowed to be freed from the safety car aeons before it actually did and it's all thanks to the likes of RBR trying to protect their positions.

 

[DrM]

Sutil tried to take kamikaze award from Kobayashi, but failed :lol

 

[Dilly]

Massa almost gone.

 

[navanman]

The tyres are ruined. Hamiltons are completely bald.

 

[Shaneus]

Hamilton and Alonso crash, Massa spins.

SCHUMACHER WINS.

I don't know why, but that "SCHUMACHER WINS" made me piss myself laughing :lol

So how far is Vettel behind in points now? It's pretty much unreachable for him now, isn't it?

 

[navanman]

Now it's too dark.

 

[Dilly]

25 from Alonso, since they had equal points.

 

[Stop It]

Now it's too dark.

Only 1 lap to go, may as well finish up.

The tyres on most cars are completly bald, the inters were not built for this yet they have held up remarkably all things considered.

Well, congratulations to Alonso, faultless race by him, Hamilton will be delighted with 2nd and Massa, while anonymous will take 3rd.

RBR will be pissed, if only the stewards would listen to them, they would have escaped with half points and a non race. Aww diddums. Karma is a bitch.

 

[Acidote]

Remember the situation on Alonso's engines for the rest of the championship.

 

[Chris R]

Screw what the haters have to say, but the track isn't that bad. Great race overall too other than the farce between laps 10-17. Now onto Brazil!

 

[Dilly]

ALOOOONSOO

 

[megateto]

FERNANDO!!!!!!!

 

[navanman]

Congrats Alonso, reckon he would have overtaken Vettel as his tyres are better.

 

[De-mon]

 

[Dilly]

:lol

Alonso laughing like a mad man.

 

[megateto]

Suck it haters XD!!!

 

[Harry_Tequila]

Manic laughter from Alonso. :lol

 

[Shaneus]

So how is it... Webber sure to get preference in RBR, Alonso on an older engine for the last two races, Hamilton a little bit out but still a chance... very exciting run to the final checkered flag.

LOL at Alonso... he's so happy :lol

 

[navanman]

Jesus it really is very dark from the point of view of the driver.

 

[Dilly]

Great parking by Massa!

 

[345triangle]

unbelievable. when was the last time a team had two DNFs from the front row?!

 

[wonderkins]

Bravo to Alonso; never gave up. Too bad for Vettel. Raced superbly and deserved better.

Still rooting for Webber but wondering where some of that "grit" has gone. Seemed squirrely the whole weekend.

 

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

Fuck yeah. Karma does exist, I couldn't lose 2 hours of sleep for nothing.

 

[DrM]

Ferrari will probably phone to Vatican with plea to pray for Alonso engine for last two races :lol

Every single DNF for Alonso, Webber, Vettel and Hamilton means KO from WDC race

 

[navanman]

Brazil is going to kill another contenders engine in 2 weeks time. Who it is, no-one can tell except the climb up the hill on the pit straight.

 

[Dilly]

Massa tripping. :lol

Korean girls are hot.

 

[Harry_Tequila]

Oh Massa :lol

Can't remember how to climb the stairs to the podium.

 

[jey_16]

Alonso..... . Great race, after all the talk from Hamilton I thought he would romp away in these conditions but Fernando was supreme.

I feel so sorry for redbull, must be terrible. Imagine if they don't win the WDC.

 

[ExtraKr1spy]

garbage red bull.

best car this year but drivers who couldn't take full advantage of it.

Vettel's engine blow he couldn't do much about.

Webber's talent... errr luck ran out. Choke job.

 

[Stop It]

Massa tripping. :lol

Korean girls are hot.

:lol :lol

Anyway, after this, who wants to rule that the Abu Dhabi day/night race should be ran without lights?

 

[Britprog]

Well done Alonso, great drive by him, never thought he had chance of it after Silverstone. But well done.

Hami 21 points behind Alonso, imo opinion its between Webber an Alonso. Also looks like go to the last race, which will be tense. I fully expect Alonso to win now, as he has experience and will not crack under pressure, unlike Webber

 

[Dilly]

This fits pretty good now.

 

[Mobius 1]

Perfect :lol :lol

 

[Shaneus]

Was that Vettel's last engine? What does that mean as far as penalties go?

 

[DrM]

Whose engine will say 'I'm done' during the Brazil race?

a) Webber
b) Vettel (double weekend bonus)
c) Alonso
d) Hamilton

a and c are my takes

 

[Timbuktu]

Can't believe how dark it really is.

 

[Dilly]

It's like night. :lol

 

[Deadman]

2010 World Champion: Fernando Alonso*

 

[Adamm]

It took ages to get started but in the end it was an awesome race

 

[Dilly]

It was that dark during the race?

Wow

 

[Pachael]

Don't feel sorry for RBR at all after their mid season hijinks with the driver fighting - look who's laughing now!

 

[Adam Scott Aukerman]

It was that dark during the race?

Wow

No, the light has been decreasing exponentially ever since the race finished, but even so, it was far too dark for the last 10 laps or so. Very surprising decision to keep it going.

 

[Dilly]

obligatory.

Wasn't the Vettel interview recorded during the race? There were still cars on track.

 

[avaya]

Lewis was very impressive considering the McLaren ripped it's tyres to bits after a few laps.

 

[Caramello]

Whose engine will say 'I'm done' during the Brazil race?

a) Webber
b) Vettel (double weekend bonus)
c) Alonso
d) Hamilton

a and c are my takes

Alonso is the most likely and Webber is the least likely.. Alonso has been nursing engines for a while now and Webber only put his 8th engine in for this race weekend. Also the fact that Webber put his car in the wall meant his engine didn't have to go a whole race either

What a championship..

 

[Salacious Crumb]

They can still cycle back through the old engines that aren't fucked.
