lol, I really struggle to see why so many people dislike Vettel. He's genuinely funny.

NEVER! Not even when Kimi won the 2007 lol ..
Hah, I could say the same about VettelThat he couldn't outperform Ricciardo (when his car wasn't blowing up) says mounds for when he's in a car that isn't 100% tailored to him.
Best of luck to him at Ferrari. He'll need it.
Hopefully he likes a sharp front end..
Nice of Vettel to confirm that he'll be out of contention for the world championship for another 3 years.
He has 4 championships in his pocket. Time to put some money there instead
If Mercedes don't agree on relaxing the rules, rest assured that in 2016 it will be a completely new engine and Ferrari will surely be very good. Vettel's move is perfectly timed. Who doesn't want to drive for Ferrari? Not even Alonso, I'm sure he still wanted to stay
ew ew ew.. right side of the helmet rocks though. Would've been awesome if he made the whole helmet that way

That was a brilliant question. Well done that journalist.
Alonso's face was a picture.

Can't really do it justice in text, hopefully someone will put a video up somewhere soon.
But basically the journalist asked Alonso "If you were able to choose your teammate next year, would you choose Button?"... with Button right next to him. Button stared intently at the side of Alonso's face whilst Alonso stammered his way through a non committal answer about not knowing where he will be.

Comes across as a crying, moaning bastard on the track.

So do most of them when they actually get the airtime. Hamilton, Alonso, Rosberg, Massa certainly do.
I imagine most of the others would do when they got to world champion level too. Raikkonen being the obvious exception.

Cheers. I don't think I've ever seen Alonso flustered before.
Yeah I love how Button compounded his misery over that question, but Button did say nothing has changed over the last 2 months.
Promodrou wing on the Mclaren:
OMG. That is fucking classic. I love both those guys. That facial reaction is priceless.
Bots are better than you

Na, they will be up there. The chassis will basically be a Red Bull and the engine will be a monster.
But I thought they would do well this year, so what do I know
I just don't want to see him win again so his stats actually represent his talent. Too bad they can't take 2 titles away.

You've not been paying attention then. They've done that and far worse with their teammates.
Nothing wrong with that

Looking forward to the press conference tomorrow, in particular what Gerard Lopez has to say.
Incredible how that press conference was so tense because of everything happening outside the WDC decision. Also Alonso's and Button's reaction to that question makes me believe that he's gone from McLaren. Also every press statement made today except for Vettel contains a dig at some team or driver. Even Ricciardo threw a small dig at Vettel.
Nico's attempt at playing mind games with Lewis is hilariously bad. Come on kid, at least say Lewis will probably push the wrong button again under pressure or say that you don't want a gifted championship like Glock gave Lewis. If you want to be a bad guy at least go all the way and put every crazy conspiracy theory on the table like Todt and Briatore did in 2005. Those were the days.

More interesting is watching other drivers reactions when one is speaking.
Also 5 Live did a 90 minute show on the final race showdowns over the years.

Guirtireizirez clipped someone with the front wing when stopping in the box. Sigh.
This clip with Vettel dressing up as an car engineer is pretty great. The long hair fits him.

Bottas dropped a massive piece of bodywork. The whole sidepod cover.
@WilliamsRacing: Bodywork issue for Valtteri as side pod comes off on that run, it also felt loose on Felipe's car. Team investigating
Floor is off on Bottas car and he wont be out for the rest of session while the team looks into the chassi flexing.
@WilliamsRacing: Fixings on both chassis need repairing so Felipe not expected to be back on track this session either-engineers adjusting plans for #FP2
