Except when Vettel lost 25 pts a little before the finish line thanks to his car...
Everybody?
Haha the host of RTL is incredibly annoyed by the booing..."He doesn't get the respect he deserves!"
Entire population - Vettel's crew - Horner - Newey = Webber's side.
Sounds like he does

It just show that the RBR is a glass-car.
Vettel doesn't get the same message about driving slower because they think Vettel would drive against the next wall but the RBR has a shitty reliability.
See all the problems Vettel had in Hungary while driving against Kimi or that Vettel (most DNFs while leading the race) and Webber do have the the most technical problems than any other drivers in the field.

I didn't watch the rest of the F1 event (thank you, Dilly), but judging from some earlier comments and qualifying, I'm assuming that Massa gave Alonso a good race, now that he doesn't have to drive for him anymore, right?

No. Alonso did an amazing start.
As if he even had a chance lol. Alonso jumped to third off the line.

It was a very clear radio conversation between nico and his engineer. I have no idea what he's arguing...
I'm also not finding any posts even from Oimee claiming vettel is 2seconds a lap faster than the field on just talent alone.
Talk about an awesome imagination.

I love how he likes to uses Massa to show how much Alonso outdrives the Ferrari - although it's completly nonsense to think a driver can drive faster than his car could deliever.
something something selective perception.

I quite enjoyed the 3-10 place battles today and was happy to see the world feed focus on it.
I guess I'm different in the sense that I enjoy seeing a perfect combo of team, athlete and equipment perform at their optimum.
Watching the Jordan, Schumacher, Rossi, cowboys eras and now Vettel has been good fun for me.

Well, if you think how Senna won the biggest part of his wins and it was never really a problem. I guess more and more people are watching for the drivers than for the engineering/teamsport aspects today.

The out-side.
What in the sweet fuck.
loool fucking stewards. poor wibbah can't catch a break.
Onboard footage of the Webber/Alonso incident.
That was a dangerous move to stop like that in that position. I think a reprimand is justified for that.

Just the cheeky comments from Alonso haters, deep inside they know Massa is no match for him with or without team orders, also Ferrari is not the 2nd best car but Alonso is always there, shame about the RBR racing on another league, bring 2014 on already !
Yep, but I think that reprimand should be for both, not only Webber but also for Alonso for stopping on the blind side of corner - he could easily stopped 20 meters later and picked up Webber up

Shame about the reprimand, spoils a good moment. That said, I can understand it.
As for the race, I found much of it fairly boring outside of the last 10 laps and a handful of others. Seems that since they've all got a handle on the tyres the gaps remain fairly static unless the strategies get mixed up.

In the preshow, the US F1 crew showed the dominance of the 1988-1989 McLaren but that is quickly forgotten.
Then there's the issue of Senna always publicly asking to move to the team with the fastest car anytime he felt that he wasn't in the fastest car on the grid.

"While the others are going home to soak their testicles in their swimming pools, we are working on the car, trying to squeeze everything out of it."
wow. at the moment he went 100, im sure i would totally shit my pants lol
Yeah feels like they're driving at 20... but haha, even on the in lap he's at 120+.
If you think about it, massively dangerous for Webber :/
Can't say the reprimand is unfair...

Haha, I was wondering how fast Alonso was going with Webber hanging on. I'd be a little nervous going 100 kph while straddling the side of an F1 car. Going 60 through the corners is pretty dicey too.

Here's the CCTV footage that was mentioned earlier: http://www.blick.ch/sport/formel1/der-wahnsinn-von-singapur-im-video-id2450773.html
Webber got lucky there.

I think they are lucky that they got just reprimands for this bullshit.
