Not bad for a "modern times" GP

Is it me or the Red Bulls drive faster when they don't use KERS?

Correct, and so far this is the only shade on Red Bull's bright wings, whether they will be able to use it on tracks when it will be needed. Up to this point they basically used it (at least Vettel did) to get a good clean start and get to turn one in P1. It seems that the problem is to "squeee" the KERS in their single-seater. Apparently this happens due to Adrian Newey's habit of designing "clean cut" but occasionally delicate cars that don't like additional "gizmos" such as F-Duct or KERS.
We'll just have to wait and see, China, with the longest straight of the Championship, is just a week away.

TERRIBLE decissions are the penalties. We are back in 2008 if it stays this way? Come on FIA

As expected

Ferrari + Alonso raised the Hamilton blocking issue and subsequent penalty post race which is why we didn't hear about it before the flag.

[JoostLamers]

Terrible losers, but Ferrari will always be that way. But the most shocking about that is that the stewards just agreed with Ferrari, really sick
