You need to miss more races. Sorry.

How do you mean?

"I give up"

That will not go down well, unless DC is right and he's bluffing.

 

[Stop It]

Alonso: I give up, I give up!

That's really not like him. He's pushed like mad to get up there and now he's saying that? I like the DC/Brundle banter over the message.

 

[Gareth Bale]

"I give up"

Trolololololol?

 

[Omiee]

i give up?

 

[Edmond Dantès]

Deception.

 

[nny]

there's an overtake button?

 

[NihonTiger90]

THE FINGER

 

[kharma45]

Hamilton did well to hold on to second.

 

[jey_16]

there's an overtake button?

Gives you an engine boost

 

[Stop It]

i give up?

As DC/Brundle said, this could eb a coded message to the team saying "Keep me behind Massa again and I'll cut off your nads"

Anyway, Vettel wins! RBR Constructors champions, Hamilton 2nd, Webber 3rd, Button 4th and Alonso 5th. 6th for Massa, 7th for Alguersuari (!), 8th for Rosberg, Buemi 9th and Di Resta 10th.

A good race all in all, but Vettel shows again why he is WC this year!

 

[SunhiLegend]

I understand Ferrari wanting to let their drivers race, but Massa cost Alonso a possible podium finish or even a battle further up. Why is Felipe still with Ferrari?

 

[NihonTiger90]

Vettel has 20 career wins. HALF OF THEM ARE THIS YEAR ALONE.

 

[kharma45]

Well, hopefully the rugby is a bit more eventful than this race, pity it didn't rain.

 

[nny]

Red Bulls side by side, nice picture.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Alonso: Fuck this, you guys can bring the car back to the pits

 

[Goldrusher]

They should disqualify everyone who can't make it back to the pits.

 

[Stop It]

Rosberg runs out of fuel on the in-lap, as does Alonso, who walks away like he has just been told his favourite dog has just died.

 

[Omiee]

red bull

RED BULL BABYYYYYYY!!!!


so glorious to see them driving next to each other

great drive from webber and vettel

 

[Adamm]

Roseberg and Alonso stopped on track lol

 

[RomanticHeroX]

It'll be interesting to see Hamilton's demeanor compared to the two RBR drivers.

 

[Edmond Dantès]

RB7 is thoroughly deserving of the WCC. Congratulations to Newey and his design team.

The race is over once you cross the line, thems the rules.

 

[pappe]

well Schumi retiring today ruined my fantasy otherwise it would have been a good weekend for me

Seeing Alonso giving up breaking my heart

I thought so too. Seems like a while since Mark had a decent drive, too.

So, can someone clarify on his start and his race?

Achievement unlocked: chassis god mode.

They were so reliable this year too.

 

[Edmond Dantès]

20 down, 71 to go.

Those grid girls

Yep, when other cars fail the RBR stays together.

Usually Newey's cars are marked by combined brilliance with a tendency to explode half the time. If he has cracked reliability too, the rest of F1 may as well give up now.

Everyone has been amazingly reliable this season, I can't recall many, if any, engines really letting go this season.

[Dead Man]

How do you mean?

He had a great first lap, and it was the race you missed the start of. Clearly you are a jinx.

 

[Adamm]

I'm sick of the German national anthem lol

 

[Gareth Bale]

Vettel with the bj face on the top step

 

[scarybore]

Really enjoyed that, great driving by Hamilton and Webber. I just hope Ferrari gives Alonso a damn good car next year and keeps Massa the fuck away from him.

well Schumi retiring today ruined my fantasy otherwise it would have been a good weekend for me

Indeed, I expect to lose the top spot now.

 

[Edmond Dantès]

The Vettel leap replaces the Schumi leap, forever and more.

 

[DrM]

Our commentator just said that Button had KERS problems from the start.

 

[RomanticHeroX]

Wow, I don't think you could take that trophy on a plane.

 

[nny]

I thought so too. Seems like a while since Mark had a decent drive, too.

So, can someone clarify on his start and his race?

There was a lot of overtakes in the first corners of the first lap, he lost a couple of spots firstly, but then overtook his way to third...so he won a spot from his starting position, an improvement from his recent crappy starts, I suppose.

 

[NihonTiger90]

lol Webber sprays the dignitaries and they had no idea it was coming. Sunhi, please gif that

 

[BrokenSymmetry]

20 down, 71 to go.

If Vettel keeps winning 10 races each season, for the rest of his career, he could make it...

 

[Edmond Dantès]

At least it's not a Santander trophy. Those are just unremarkable in every way.

 

[TylerD]

Everyone has been amazingly reliable this season, I can't recall many, if any, engines really letting go this season.

The potential of what F1 could be continues to get held back though. It may be good to limit the cars now in this climate but if the world economy starts booming and more truckloads of money can be poured in I want to see no restrictions on revs and see how far these cars can be pushed. 1200 hp v12s please

 

[nny]

Damn, that trophy looks dangerous.

Indeed.

 

[Shaneus]

Ahaha. Awesome. Rest of his race was good then, I take it?

I actually have high hopes for him next year. So long as what Foliorium said about Webber preferring cars without the blown diffuser is true, then we should see a much closer fight between the two RBR drivers. To be honest, he really hasn't been THAT far off Vettel, just that the German has been able to get better starts and basically control the pack from the front.

YES, ACCEPT THAT TROPHY YOU MAGNIFICENT AUSTRALIAN.

 

[Salamndar]

Entertaining race, Hami defended 2nd pos. well enough from Webber, still I can't find out what went wrong, I mean all weekend pre race the Macs were much better cars than the rest, in race they were not !!

 

[Edmond Dantès]

If Vettel keeps winning 10 races each season, for the rest of his career, he could make it...

He's only 24. He could have another 10 plus years in the sport, so even 5 a season would be enough theoretically.
