Seb taking time to check his Facebook.

[Dudley]

Something flapping on Webber's diffuser there?

Doesn't matter, they're about to call him in to take the rear end off and put it on Seb's car.

[mexos]

Anything is possible in these days of safety cars. Remember Button's win from the back? He could have still made the podium.

[JohnC]

Sympathy from the little troll.

[Dandy_Sephy]

Bernie sticking his tongue in Vettels ear there...

[Wallace]

Would have been some pretty crappy humble pie as he passed the HRT and Lotus etc, given the time lost he wouldn't have been anywhere near the front guys to prove his passing ability as he would have been over 2 mins down.

It appears in his hurry to get back he wrecked the car, i wonder if it was a different part that failed as most can get a car back after a puncture?

Ahh yeah I forgot people tend to move goal posts when proved wrong!

Yes, Vettel leaving the race really proved everyone wrong...

[Rattlehead.ie]

Brilliant, bet there were 23 other happy drivers to see that for a change.

Don't mind who wins but would love to see a race for 1st and not just replace one run away with another.

[Sidewaysbob]

hmmmm well this is dull

[Halkyon]

I can see Alonso winning this.

[Dandy_Sephy]

Note to drivers: don't bother overtaking just before the DRS point. It never works

[mexos]

Nah.

[morcs]

Tis a great shame, robbed us of a Vettel Hamilton DRS battle

[Wallace]

Apologies, I was referring to his ability in overtaking, not the damage to his car.

Odd really. They're saying DRS is working great there. But isn't it just punishing people who have put in effort to overtake by having them passed again at the push of a button?

But surely at that distance, the attacking driver also has the same advantage? Overtaking just before the DRS zone isn't going to give you chance to get away, but overtaking in the DRS zone can get you the advantage into the corner. Why not keep close for a few seconds then pull out? Webber made the same mistake in India.

Diresta just showed the benefit of leaving it a bit, he just messed it up after

It's utterly awful.

[marsh]

Shit my boots, are we back in the 80's? be a really good time to cut away from the action and focus on the sunset.

[mexos]

Nice JB.

[myoozikk]

Lovely driving from JB & MW.

[mexos]

It's utterly awful.

LOL.

[JohnC]

Now all we need is the usual bad McLaren pit call to screw themselves out of a win.

They tried, but managed to pull it off instead.

[myoozikk]

They tried, but managed to pull it off instead.

Double pit as well.

[mexos]

Double stop, they did really well!

[JohnC]

Double pit as well.

That's what I mean.

Oh, it's RB doing the pit muck-ups this time.

[mexos]

That pit exit is terrible.

[SMD]

That pit exit is terrible.

Looks like the parking slip road for Dubai Mall.

[Wallace]

Horrible luck for Red Bull in this race for a change.

[mexos]

JYS sorting out Petrov's mind management lol.

[mexos]

3.6 second lead for Ham
