DRS was way to effective in my opinion. May be there would have been a better race if they hadn't used it here.

I think the DRS zone started too early. They should have moved it to the exit of the turn 11 kink. But then maybe they thought that was too short a distance and the only other option then would have been too close to the corner to be safe.

But it's the first season. They won't get it spot on every time. Next year they'll move the line a bit I would think.

Very nice.

Another one, "Look but never stare"

Anyone who watches a lot of Formula 1 cannot have failed to notice Sebastian Vettel's trademark celebrations after his pole position and race wins.

Love them or loathe them, there is that pointing of his index finger and his repeated radio shrieks of 'Now that's what I'm talking about' and 'I'm so proud of you boys...'

So much has his revelry become a part of Vettel's brand that you could have forgiven him for feeling a bit uneasy when FIA race director Charlie Whiting brought up the topic of post-race activities in a drivers' briefing.

But rather than it being a warning about him thinking up some new kind of post-flag expression, it was about some of the younger drivers not getting too carried away with the champagne on the podium.

Earlier this year, Turkey imposed much stricter controls on the sale and promotion of alcohol – and F1 was not exempt from the regulations.

Teams were banned from advertising such products – so at Sauber, for example, Jose Cuervo Tequila was out and Cholula Hot Sauce was in...

Of more intrigue for the drivers was that the legal age for drinking has been lifted to 24 – which meant in theory Vettel, a year below that, would be breaking the law if he let any podium champagne pass his lips.

His team boss Christian Horner said: "Seb is so young he is not allowed to even drink the champagne on the podium here, because he is underage! It was mentioned in the drivers' briefing..."

However, it looks like Vettel may have forgotten about hit all in the heat of the moment – as he was seen knocking back a quick swig from the unbranded champagne bottle as he savoured another brilliant victory...

I heard on the bbc that this is the most pit stops in a race since donnington 1993.

If so that is really shocking considering that donnington was a wet race!
