Lol, Massa is worse in the rain than the Wicked Witch of the West.
You could totally see Lewis set up that double-pass. Instead of pulling a Mika, he backed off and made the inside-out on two cars. The kid is a master behind the wheel, but he needs to make tire calls like Button, and have a bit more luck with race strategy. But man he is hella fun to watch. 
PEACE.
PEACE.That was a stroke of racing genius, he waited for the mistake, and took a tight line, easy.Pimpwerx said:You could totally see Lewis set up that double-pass.

Webber almost pulls off the same trick, but knowing him he wouldn't have passed Vettel but swiped him out of the race, so thought better of it.
Because it wasn't against the rules? You don't stop racing until you hit the rev limit line in the pit lane.StoOgE said:

Until he gets called into the pits for entering pit lane illegally TWICE in the same race and racing a car in the slow lane in the pits.
Why he hasn't been called in is beyond me.
He blocks like a madman last week with no penalty and this week he is getting a free pass on a clear violation of pit rules.
Rain in 3 minutes, same sort of rain, 10 minutes.
Rosberg staying on dry tyres.
Also, write off Schumacher at your peril, his car might be slower but he still knows his racecraft, great battle.

Nobody needs to pit, rain nullifies the soft/hard tyre rule.StoOgE said:
It was legal. You're allowed to go off, just like Massa going off course before going in. That was some fun racing with Michael and Lewis. Lewis did not do the best bit of driving, but he did kinda outfox Michael in that hairpin. Michael put on a nice little clinic on defensive driving there. PEACE.StoOgE said:
Schumacher finally relents, but he didn't give Hamilton any room, and gave him a scare by slipstreaming HIM after the overtake.
Still, I can't help but think rain is going to mix this up again....Vettel vs Schumacher up next.
Oh. That was anti-climatic, I wonder if the Anti-Vettel brigade are going to criticise his overtaking skills this time?

He didn't go off because he lost grip.. He intentionally cut across the gravel on the first pitstop and dove across the white line into another cars racing line the second time. Then he decided to race a car that was clearly ahead of him while he was in the line that pitworkers occupy.
There is nothing even remotely legal about what he did.
I'm still trying to work out what happened at the beginning.
Webber was essentially first, with Alonso having the impending drive-through penalty. Then he had to pit twice because Red Bull is run by morons and now he's so far back. Most unlucky guy ever.
Also, can someone explain to me where all this slipstream stuff is coming from? What happened to the whole 'dirty air' problem?
