There was no pressure on Vettel: I think that he thought he'd already lost it. He never knew where Alonso was, so he probably thought he was 3rd or 4th all race, which was enough for Alonso being WDC. So Vettel just won it, and heard after 30s having crossed the finish-line he was the WDC!swca92 wrote:Some observations about the race:
2) Vettel was relaxed - notice him talking to Brundle on the grid, bright and breezy as anything. Whereas Webber seemed to freeze and Ferrari made an enormous cock-up in strategy under intense pressure, Vettel just drove without pressure all weekend and performed accordingly. He got an enormous amount of luck today, but considering how he's had the worst luck of all the contenders the maxim "It all evens itself out in the end" could have been written with what happened today in mind.
