Was just chatting with a mate about the season so far, I am bored with this season and I think it's down to the tyres artificially limiting the performance of the teams.

Id rather have Vettel win every race than have a completely unpredictable race thanks to the tyres, F1 should be about the drivers skill than which team can set up their car so that it doesnt wear down the tyres so quickly.

[Kerm]

Definitely a fair point. It is exciting that you can't predict who's going to win, but I have to agree it seems that the winner is really who has their car balanced the best for the tyres.

Not quite the driver showdown we hope for, it's just waiting for X's tyres to go off as Y has fresher tyres.

woah! incredibly close qualifying. i really expected a williams or lotus on pole, but at the end the 2 best drivers on the grid delivered again way more than their car was allowing. its shaping up to be a vettel vs. hamilton battle for the wdc this year.

another "winner" aftet today: felipe massa. he has definitly nothing to hide if he is aside with schumacher and alonso :p

[Noir Angel]

Same front row as Canada, wouldn't mind seeing the same result either. As long as Vettel doesn't win though i'll be pretty happy.

[Kerm]

I thought Button's post quali interview was fantastic.

What happened with the Ferraris?

[simonlang]

What happened with the Ferraris?

they are just lacking pace. no driving mistake like schumacher in the last corner (however i doubt it would have made any difference)

[simonlang]

baffed by the ammount of luck alonso had in this race. that must be at least that much for the rest of the year. :o

the only good thing is no one will talk about alonsos lucky win cause SCHUMACHER FINALLY ON THE PODIUM!!! :) :) :)

lol, that couldn't have gotten any better for Alonso. The F1 gods even had Dildonado ram Hamilton out at the end of the race.

[Lovell]

Maldonado such an amateur.

[Zain Adeel]

WAT?? DID!! MELDONADO DO?

wt?

:o and SCHUMACHER FINALLY!!! BACK!

[simonlang]

lol, that couldn't have gotten any better for Alonso. The F1 gods even had Dildonado ram Hamilton out at the end of the race.

also count grosjean sleeping at the restart and letting alonso pass, vettels car going bom, mclaren letting hami again down in the pits.

[Zain Adeel]

Maldonado such an amateur.

that's an understatement.

[simonlang]

SCHUMACHER MAN OF THE RACE!!!!

[Eddo89]

Top 4....

Alonso, Kimi, Michael and Webber. 6 years ago much?

[KiHu]

Hamilton - Maldonado incident..Hard to judge,Looked like Hamilton turned into Mal. But Mal at the same time did not do much of an effort to not run into Hamilton.

Also, would have loved to see Alonso's pirellis to fall of the edge, and thusly make Kimi overtake him and win.

Very nice to see Schumi back on the podium, the way him and Webber worked through the field together was a nice thing to watch.

[simonlang]

schumacher congratulating EVERY MERCEDES GUY while alonso is putting on a ridiculous show - its even not allowed to stop on track.... penalty following?

[TheLegendOfMart]

Hamilton - Maldonado incident..Hard to judge,Looked like Hamilton turned into Mal. But Mal at the same time did not do much of an effort to not run into Hamilton.

What?

Hamilton was on the racing line, Maldonado was off the track, Hamilton turns to make the apex when he was IN FRONT on the RACING LINE and Maldonado instead of tucking in behind Hamilton pulls into him.

[simonlang]

wondering why grosjean and vettel had the same failure.... weird...

[TheLegendOfMart]

Grosjean had an alternator failure which cut out all the electrics, Vettels engine just stopped, not the same failure.
