Well, all I can say is, I am amazed that any of these guys manage to drive as well as they do. Before I thought it was tough, but it drove the point home, even though our speed was on the level of a slow warm up lap.
They all now get much more of my respect as a result-to the point where I find it pretty much impossible to say anything negative about any of their abilities or what a driver did.......no matter how stupid some their moves on the track may look on television in slow motion after an incident.Only the dead know the end of war.

The only reason that Seb pitted first was to cover off Hamilton who pitted the lap before. Had they pitted Mark first, as was his right, then Hamilton would have got ahead and Seb would be battling to get past Hamilton to get second place back. Mark would have been 7-9 seconds ahead at that stage. Game over.
Why did Seb win?
He received an unfair pit advantage over Webber.... and then, when asked to switch off, he said nothing and pounced on Webber who was in economy mode. Did Webber switch on again? Apparently not. He did not have the fuel available to 'race' home or go hard against Seb. He was mugged. Pure and simple.
Silverstone '11 the team advised Webber that it was Seb's race and his immediate response was to tell them to bugger themselves, he was going for it. Had Seb said the same thing to the team in this scenario and taken the second pit stop, he would need to have passed Hamilton then found Webber some seconds up the road for the win. If he did that, then kudos to him. The man. The racer. What he did was say nothing and then pounce on a team-made who had been advised to save fuel and tyres, bring the car home.
And after all this Seb now says "Mark didn't deserve it." Well bugger me! You arrogant twat.Ayrton Senna, Legend. R.I.P.
