In the interview the 3 of them should thank Grosjean for not being around and taking them out on the first lap ;P

Best crowd. Speaking Italian. And they still boo him.

Now he's praising Alonso. Hamilton going to Ferrari confirmed.

This is so bad by the crowd. Please have some respect.

Can you imagine what will happen in Spain if Hamilton gets on the podium and they do this interview? Monkey sounds, etc...

I'm not saying everyone is an idiot but you only need a couple to ruin it for everybody.
 
Terrible result for Button. Makes it incredibly hard for him to havea good shot at chalenging for the title. With the way that McClaren are racing at the moment too him and Hamilton could have both been right up there.

Rest of the reason should be very interesting. Only 37 points between Hamilton and Alonso, and Vettel is still close. Kimi is still right in it too if Lotus can keep up with development.

Driver standings for the top 5:

1 Fernando Alonso 179
2 Lewis Hamilton 142
3 Kimi Räikkönen 141
4 Sebastian Vettel 140
5 Mark Webber 132

GAF1 hive mind.

Probably something to do with the commentator mentioning it.

EDIT: Also Ferrari have to get rid of Massa now and get Perez in. Massa is just not up to it now. He has more points than both Massa and Michael.

It's an italian crowd, what do you expect. Alonso got boo'd when he won in Silverstone.

This is why podium interviews are a bad idea. This will always happen in countries that are affiliated with a team or driver.

The commentators were a bit tiresome at the end of the race, perez could win this! erm no he cant, 10s behind, 5 laps to go and only gaining 1s a lap on a driver who for the past 20 laps has just been cruising around saving tyres and fuel.

I know they are trying to build excitement which is tricky when one driver just walks away at the front but please treat your viewers with a bit more respect.

Let's hope this makes FIA forget about this stupid idea.

Alonso is smart. Speaking in Italian to the crowd. Spanish fans will probably hate him now.

They seem intent on messing around with the post race interviews. They removed the table from the interview for the top three and gave them Britney mics for no reason at all. The podium interviews don't even make any sense when there is actually a decent and respectful crowd, let alone when there is a cretinous group like the Italians.

Hard to say but the problem for the other competitors is that Ferrari will always be close to the top and score well. McLaren are top at the moment with 3 wins on the bounce.

I'm sure there's a reason she has to stand that way.
