Vettels lead increases again.

Well, hooray for that.

 

[Jinjo]

That's it. Drive through and on the wrong tires. Fuck. WDC definitely over now. Putting all hope in Button wins now for remainder of the season.

 

[brotkasten]

Fuck this, Hamilton has been screwed by strategy today.

I'm not a fan, but I do feel sorry for him.

 

[Stop It]

I'm so confused with tyre strategies @_@

So is Hamilton and Webber.

It's a Button vs Vettel fight to the end then? Alonso creeping up on them too.

 

[jey_16]

Penalty as well.....sooo good

 

[Ark]

Someone please remind me why the FIA are in charge? Bernie could do a better job than those tools.

 

[PdotMichael]

rain now would be fantastic

 

[MmmSkyscraper]

 

[kharma45]

Hamilton absolutely deserves a drive through for that. Bad luck with the strategies all race but that was his own stupidity.

Pretty much, fucked himself over with that stupid move on the track.

Inters were a gamble, but he still could've finished ok without the drive-through.

 

[ColR100]

This will be fucking bullshit if Vettel wins. McLaren really messed this up.

 

[Antakken]

Hamilton What a waste!

 

[Wes]

KOBAYASHHIIIIIIIIIIIIII 7TH

 

[Aegus]

FIA are always far too quick to hand out drive throughs. It's like they're scared of danger.

 

[DancingCactus77]

Just tuned in. Why did Hamilton get the penalty?

 

[schroddycat]

Button once again proves he's very adaptable to changing weather.

 

[brotkasten]

Crashing in F1 isn't a joke.

That was deserved.

 

[Jinjo]

Button happy he lost that race to the pits.

 

[kharma45]

Hamilton could've wiped out Di Resta. I'm all for wheel to wheel driving and the odd bit of contact, but it was stupid by Hamilton.

Their duty is to protect the lives of the drivers, and that's what they do.

 

[Xun]

So much Hamilton hate here.

 

[navanman]

Vettel has this race with a totally average performance.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Vettel gets handed a podium place. Great...

 

[Stop It]

Just a thought for the race so far:

Canada: Button takes 6 stops and wins. Hungary: Hamilton takes 6 stops and rages

 

[Cerebral Assassin]

Does Massa have to stop again? I have no idea how he managed to get in front of Webber.

 

[Omiee]

are you kidding me, did you watch the replay.
he almost took out di resta.

 

[mxgt]

Vettel sucks the whole race and can still win.

Typical.

 

[kharma45]

Vettel has this race with a totally average performance.

It's just his year (again) :\

 

[Dilly]

Vettel gets handed a podium place. Great...

Pretty much this, fuck this season.

 

[PdotMichael]

Vettel has this race with a totally average performance.

place 2 is great, mclarren was in an other league today

 

[brotkasten]

Vettel gets handed a podium place. Great...

Thanks to his team. But this is part of racing, nobody should complain about that. It's not pretty, but it's definitely racing.

 

[Ark]

There's a difference between being careful, and being overly careful.

The FIA this year are handing out penalties to everyone without second thought.

 

[DieH@rd]

KOBAYASHHIIIIIIIIIIIIII 7TH

 

[Omiee]

Vettel gets handed a podium place. Great...

oh come on now, sure he was slow as fuck, but he made no mistakes.

 

[ANDY_098]

Hamilton must be fuming. Expect fireworks.

 

[Gareth Bale]

As long as Hamilton keeps his head, he can still finish 4th. It would be fitting for Jenson to win on his 200th GP at the circuit where he won his first one.

 

[Dilly]

Massa just doesn't seem to give a shit anymore.

 

[Aegus]

Their duty is to protect the lives of the drivers, and that's what they do.

I thought their duty was to govern the premier motorsport where men (woman in future probably) put machinery to the limits.

FIA constantly gets in the way of good races.

 

[Omiee]

Massa just doesn't seem to give a shit anymore.

he must have overtaken 10 people this race.

 

[Chris R]

FIA are always far too quick to hand out drive throughs. It's like they're scared of danger.

Except he deserved this one. Really bonehead move to do that in traffic. One thing to do it if you are alone, totally different with others around. Switching to wets at the end of the race was dumb. If he went onto softs then he would be 4th now and might have got 3rd.

Hamilton deserved it in that case, what he did was dangerous.

 

[brotkasten]

Massa just doesn't seem to give a shit anymore.

This. He should go to Williams, driving with Barichello.

Bar: I'll be number 2, okay?
Mas: no, I want to be no 2!

 

[Timbuktu]

Too many mistakes from alonso today.

 

[kharma45]

Lotus

 

[Gareth Bale]

oh come on now, sure he was slow as fuck, but he made no mistakes.

The easy with which he was passed makes him undeserving of 2nd place finish. And he hasn't had to make any passes himself other than Alonso on destroyed tyres.

 

[Sloane]

Just a thought for the race so far:

Canada: Button takes 6 stops and wins. Hungary: Hamilton takes 6 stops and rages

But Button is always Lucky when he wins!

Brundle and Coulthard disagree and I bet everyone on the track racing would disagree with you.

There is a safe way to rejoin the race after spinning like that, and Hamilton chose not to do it. If he had waited a second longer for clear track he could've rejoined normally, but he didn't. He caused Di Resta to have to swerve violently, at a very fast part of the track, to avoid him. This is also while the track was very slick with fresh rain, which is what made Hamilton spin in the first place. Di Resta was lucky to keep control, but there was a barrier just a few meters off the side, and things could've gone very differently. He put himself and the others in danger, needlessly. You just can't tolerate that kind of behavior.

 

[Omiee]

dude the track was wet as fuck, everyone was dancing.

how about button being lucky, if he came in first.
he would have beenfucked.
and hamilton as well since he had a drive through penalty.

 

[brotkasten]

Too many mistakes from alonso today.

Yeah, he could easily be on the second place.
