Sorry mate, but I'm not with you on this one. He definitely gained an advantage and he should have been given an investigation at least. Well, be that as it may.
If Red Bull are as strong in the following races as they're said to be, I'm with Mark Webber all the way.

Those Ferrari are like boulders on wheels. Remember Barrichello and Alonso in Spa

Kudos? I want to see tyres lasting 1 lap not 52.

Bridgestone - Make your soft tyres...soft!!! Soft tyres do not last 52 laps - they should last about a 1/3 of the race. Also Yamamoto outshone himself again, injuring one of his pitcrew. Chandhok may not be a world beater but at least he's not a danger to his own mechanics.

Also someone should show Hulkenburg a map of the actual course. Does he know you have to go through corners and not tarmac with weird road bumps on it???

Bit off topic, but anyone else got the feeling that Mercedes will pull out of the sport before 2013?

Sniff :lol:
Vettel is known as 'The Crash Kid'? Who on earth is deciding these nicknames?
There's Whitmarsh, thinking of a new nickname for Button. Best he's got so far is 'Mr Drivey Guy'
If Whitmarsh needs a nickname for Hamilton I'd probably suggest 'The Silly t***'
Is it wrong to snigger every time someone says 'Lesmo'?
Alonso has the option to make his car lighter by throwing some of his toys out of it.
So there was a man actually reaching into the cockpit and Yamamoto decided to DRIVE OFF? Did he think he was being CAR JACKED?
Alonso is to make an official complaint, demanding he be given a placing 'higher than first

If they don't win a race next year then I'd say end of 2011
