I predict that vhatever/Tamb will be suitably quiet about this one... ;)

I would like to nominate all of the lapped cars for Donkey of the Race. They've done an outstanding work in order to get this nomination.

They basically destroyed Jenson's chances of a win and Alonso's chances of a 3rd place. In Alonso's case, it would have been difficult (but not impossible) to keep Webber behind with a proper strategy, whereas Jenson lost about 8 or 9 seconds behind lapped cars. He ended 1.7 seconds behind Vettel, so had he not have been held, he would have given Vettel a race for his money.

I agree.

and for turtle of the race, I guess that vote goes to Rosberg, who seemed to be consistently about 2 to 3 seconds a lap slower than MS for most of the race while MS was in it....then later, even slower than that.....

Indeed, the only reason he was ahead of MS was that he was permitted to do a qualifying lap in Q3, and MS was not

At one point MS had the fastest lap in the race.......and the fastest exit.......head on........I am surprized that given that impact, he was not seriously hurt.



funny how MS runs wheel to wheel with Ham, Button, Alsonso and even webber, without the contact like this, but when it comes to sutile, perez and such, there is contact.....

They didn't really. Vettel always had Button under control.

I have commented in the other topic. Basically, I am shocked. With his attitude Lewis is clearly saying, I don't care about rules, I don't care about fair playing, I'll bully you as much as I want. He deserves a race ban. Enough is enough.
About MS, I am very disappointed with his move. He was fast, but the move on Perez was beyond stupid.

Just don't understand the criticism.

Clearly a racing incident as LH & FM were wheel to wheel in the braking zone, on the limit and fighting fo same piece of asphalt.

Rosberg deserved a penalty for forcing off the track more than LH's.

In Canada JB looked in his mirror to his right just before he moved across on LH.

Racing incident.

Indeed. In fact, Rosberg was amazing lucky to have already gotten away with cutting a corner at the start and making up several places without sanction.

Hamilton made a stupid error, but nothing to deserve a penalty IMO.
