Yeah. Clean air driver lol. He sticks it past a driver when he knows he won't be clipped.

[JohnC]

Gah!

[Dandy_Sephy]

Buttons fucked

NO WHEELNUT!

[Big Gus]

Jenson LOLterceptor!

I don't think Vettel trusts Hamilton enough to try a pass given his driving over the last couple of months.

Hamiltons driving has only been suspect whilst overtaking, not defending.

Button out

Wrong again, he DRS's past Massa who couldn't hold off your mum!

[the_debaser]

You said he can't overtake. Just as he did an overtake.

[dan_tm]

Where was the fault there then, did the other front-right guy put his hand up, or did the lollypop man go too early?

[myoozikk]

Poor button, bad release.

[layten]

Lolz Massa couldn't hold off a bunch of girl scouts.

[Guest]

Looked like the lollypop man lifted too early. The front right guy didn't raise his hand.

I love how the McLaren fans were loving the Redbull pit fuck up

Yeah to avoid another boring ass race of Vettel wandering off into the distance.

[Shimmyhill]

You said he can't overtake. Just as he did an overtake.

The Red bull was going about 30mph quicker against a driver who's tyres are shot and couldn't defend against a HRT let alone the fastest car on the grid. It wasn't so much of a pass as stealing candy from a baby, a baby who doesn't like candy who has left the candy on the side with a sign saying 'please take this candy as i have no interest in it'

But yeah "GREAT PASS VETTELL WELL DONE, YOU COULDN'T GET PAST A SLOWER CAR WITH SHOT TYRES BUT YOU CAN PASS A SLOWER CAR WITH EVEN MORE SHOT TYRES AND A LAME DRIVE WHO CANT DEFEND - WELL DONE'

[JohnC]

Could that McLaren stop be investigated as an unsafe release?

[EDIT]

And just as I ask, it is

[wev]

Rain here in Bedford, think its travelled in from the North-East though and not all that quickly either, so not heading to Silvertsone.

It's fucked up the washing though

[dan_tm]

Hahaha, bluffing on the radio as revenge for the 'leaking' of Button coming in to pass Webber? Amazing scenes.

[bradigor]

Schumacher has been boss today, had that fuck up with Kobayashi, but aside from that he has driven really well. Could well have been in the mix without that Stop and Go.

[Dandy_Sephy]

Hamilton was never going to be able to keep 3rd, just a matter of time

[the_debaser]

Fuck me. Ham almost clipped Webber there. Very lucky.

[Big Gus]

Ham trying to nibble him.

[myoozikk]

Fu!

[JohnC]

For a moment, in that shot from above, I thought the wirecam was a front wing skittering across the track.

[layten]

Sigh.. all too predictable. F1 is more about saving fuel and tyres these days than it is about racing.

[CJ.]

To be honest, I can't think of anything good coming out sport this Summer for being British, apart from the England Under 17's winning a penalty shootout against Argentina.

[Monbee]

DRS is shit. We could have had a great fight to the end there. Or at least something of a fight.

[Shimmyhill]

Fuck me. Ham almost clipped Webber there. Very lucky.

[SF-02]

The Mclaren drivers will be thinking of moving teams at this moment I can imagine. Lewis must be seething.

Hamilton started 10th, 4th is hardly a bad thing. It's a shame he's not on the podium places, but he's done pretty well. He's been screwed over, but not a bad performance
