Certainly settle for that result. Probably as best as it could get. Pity Alonso could only finish 5th though. Hopefully Lotus & Mercedes can push after the summer break to make the second half slightly interesting.
Riccardo to red bull was expected but I think Vergne has been massively overlooked. He's currently ahead of Riccardo this season and outscored him last season. Occasionally Riccardo looks spectacular but that's it. Wrong choice in my mind, should of been Kimi
Vettel gets pole as expected. Hopefully Webber and Alonso can challenge. Webber in particular could do well if he gets the start right. Toro Rosso's did well, Maccas fell back there and Hamilton and the Lotus' just didn't get it right, though Lewis seemed to have been impeded by Sutil (couldn't be anyone else could it? ). But Hulkenberg, what a lap! The guy is damn good and is being wasted at Sauber, something that I'm sure a lot of people would agree with. This guy should be in a position like Grosjean's or Massa's.
Agreed. A bit tired of Vettel running away with it. He's a sublime driver no doubt but I can't help but feel it's 50% him and 50% Newey. He tends to shine (as well as falter) when in a situation where his car isn't quite the best or it's on a level playing field (either his car or circumstances making his superior car go through more obstacles). Next year should be a sight though with the new rules and more emphasis on engines coming. It's entirely possible Vettel ends up struggling.
Even the skysports commentators where like 'Vettel is out infront, now for the race" He's getting to that Schumy in his prime days where, I couldn't care who won but not him
Only thing to say about this race is how fucking good was Nico Hulkenberg? If you look at the race results, he was in amongst the top guys, even finishing ahead of Rosberg and directly behind Massa! Behind the top 6 there was a monumental gap back to Ricciardo who has just got a Red Bull drive for next season. Well done to him. I'd say he has really put himself in the shop window. He'll be at either Ferrari or Lotus next season imo.
Seb must be loving it, barely 26 years of age, youngest ever driver to get a pole, win a race, win a championship and youngest ever triple world champion.
On course for four in a row, getting boo'ed for doing his job, hostile team mate off into retirement.
You know you're doing something right when you got the FIAT loving tifosi whinging and the brits boo'ing you.
They boo'ed Senna too, so Sebas take no mind kid, keep doing what you're doing!!!
It's just come to peoples attention Vettel is being boo'd? And they're saying it's because of the "multi 2-1" incident despite the fact he was getting bored on a lot of the podiums last year too. The 1 that stands out most was the American Grand Prix.
I can't see Kimi going to Ferrari. With that Russian kid with loads of money coming into F1 I see the Hulk in the Ferrari seat.
I honestly don't think Kimi is as good as people make him out to be, a few string of consecutive point finishes and he's a top driver? Or was it because of the "I know what I'm doing, leave me alone" radio call?
The luckiest championship win ever. He wasn't even in the running for it until Mclaren shot themselves in the foot and made a mess of it. He just lucked into it, Massa was better than him that season just Kimi was slightly more fortunate that his car was more reliable than Massa's. Without the problems at Mclaren he would of finished a distant 3rd! He only won because of the last 5 or so races when Alonso and McLaren were completely at war. Also his defence of the title was little short of pathetic, being hammered by Massa.
like said, not every f1 driver is lucky to have
1) a team mate deliberately crash to so you can win a race
2) a team mate who's role is never to fight you, just move out of your way etc
It is funny how the Fernando fans are always so insecure about others.
This thread is a perfect example, he comes with his barbs about Senna not being a great driver, barbs about Sebas who is single handily owning FIAT and now about kimi.
The only time Nando had a team mate allowed to race him was Lewis, we all know he bitched and asked macca to impose team orders, he threatened to expose the spying documents, so Ron Dennis willingly disclosed it to Max and fired the crybaby all while debut season Lewis finished level on points with him!
Kimi returning to Ferrari confirmed next year this going to be interesting and sad to see Massa leave all though he has been not performing since 2010 he has been nice guy
I guess this Hulk should get the Lotus seat
