When it comes to the Ferrari, I think they were much better on option tyres than on prime ones. Perhaps the problem with them wasn't fuel as much as it was tyre performance. Alonso was great in the first laps with a set of soft tyres, but when he put the mediums on, his performance wasn't just as good as it was before.Quote:

Why is it impossible for you to admit that bieber was lucky to get the 2nd place instead of 3rd place, is your love for him so strong? Why are you trying to omit what everyone could see on their LT, that bieber was far faster through S2 and S3 (but still having slowed down considerably) than anyone else when SC came out.

Good race, have the feeling this could be a frustrating year for Hamilton. :)
That would suck... I was hoping for him to come to Ferrari one day... Such a fast driver and great guy.
Still, Massa has got to GOOOO, NOOOWWW! I think anyone can do a better job really. Perez is doing very well, strong driver... time to claim him back ferrari!
I think actually the safety car saved him a place or two. Having pitted on lap 31 or whatever it was, he was going to struggle to make the end of the race without another stop. But still, an excellent race from Alonso. Solid defence against Maldonado at the end. As so often in the past he's made a strong points finish in a mediocre car.Quote:

It didn't seem to me that he was pushing very hard, nonetheless his tires were gone much earlier.
I will root for Vettel even if he's not my favorite driver as I don't want Button champion and don't want to hear Withmarsh gloating about it.
Whenever he speaks, it's always for praising Button even when he was not the one with the best results in the team.
Where did I say that? I ASK AGAIN, GIVE ME A QUOTE BY ME.Quote:

While everyone is finding excuses for their favourite drivers who didn't get the desired result, has anyone noticed that it was a very nice race today? :) I'm not a supporter of DRS, but it actually did why it was designed. It wasn't introduced for easy passes - I hope - but for tighter racing. I think that was the case.
