I guess, you were right: https://www.facebook.com/idislikeLotusF1 :lol:
Though I honestly think it was a stupid strategy. Going 51 laps on mediums sounds impossible, they should never have tried it. I wonder whose idea it was...

Congrats to Vettel and RBR for their 4th consecutive title! Seb did a basically flawless season so far, so he definitely earned this one. I can't wait to see how the rest of the season unfolds. Will Webber have the chance to stand on the top step of the podium? Will Ferrari get 2nd in Constructor's? I know the championship is over, but I don't think the remaining races will be dull.

Alonso drove like someone who lost all their motivation - which is understandable in a way. In hindsight, they should have gone out on softs in Q3. Alonso would have qualified himself to the second row, and most likely would have avoided the crash at the start. Of course, it's easy to be smart after it all happened. :p

Unsurprising. Still annoying.

It should be the other way round, new world champion reprimanded if they head straight to parc ferme. :p

At least newey has admitted the change to 2012 tyres has helped them dominate.

We don't condone any comments against Alan Permane's family, as we've heard that there have been threats made against him and his family.

This edition of the Indian GP was better than the last two.

Grosjean man of the race :hatoff:

Congratulations to Red Bull and Vettel they were brillant throughout the year.

Now that the championships are over, I hope we'll see an interesting races with different winners, maybe it's time that Grosjean scores his first win.

Grosjean has been phenomenal across the last few races. His drive today was outstanding.
