Very bad driving from Jenson pushing his team mate off the track. Must be feeling the presure with a faster younger team mate.

Grossjean passes both Mclarens now. Message should have been Jenson Sergio is faster than you.

True, but we are just looking at this as fans, so for us it is exciting!

Yawn, Vettel, Yawn. Just like the boring Schumacher years.

Nope, I tend to do that with Vettel, I'm longing for the day someone else wins a championship! Never understood why Vettel is seen as a great driver - he's never been a contender in a sub-par car, unlike Alonso. He's a very good driver who's been lucky to have some great cars, but he's by no means the best driver on the grid in my opinion.


Perez is an idiot - you don't join a new team then annoy the bosses like that! Like it or not, Button is number 1 at McLaren, and his consistency and experience makes that deserved. Perez needs to calm down and be a bit more forward-thinking.

Shame Button had to pit again. Hope di Resta holds on for a podium, though Grosjean has acquitted himself well today so far.

Good stategy by Force India too. Pity Di Resta won't make the podium, but they maximised their chances.

I'd love it if one day Vettel spun out on the last two laps when he's doing his "must go for the fastest lap" routine.

Rosberg dropped towards the end having to make a 4th stop. Looking back, he was fighting and defending when he didn't need to and that wrecked his tyres. Rosberg didn't really pick his fights well today. Too aggressive at times.

Team Orders: "Vettle your are more boring than anyone else - Do you understand?"

So to sum up:
Boring winner, should have been one of the Lotus cars - was good to see them on the podium - or Alonso. The race was deprived of any spectacle by Alonso's mechanical problem and Vettel was basically gifted the win, he didn't have to do anything except drive conservatively (though that's often difficult for him I know).
Shame di Resta didn't get a podium.
Ferrari had a shocker, but much of it wasn't their fault. Questions to be asked about tyre quality.
Mercedes also disappointed - races are much less interesting when Hamilton's having a (relatively) bad day.
Perez is going to be in trouble after the race with Alonso and Button, but he was responsible for pretty much all the excitement there was.
Webber and Button seemed to just disappear.
No really interesting midfield battles - all the action was in the top 10. Don't think Maldonado, Riccardo or Bottas were even mentioned once in the commentary!

What was going on with Massa's tyres? Quite concerning for Pirelli to have so many punctures.

Well, some great racing up and down the field, although little of it was really decisive.

Interesting to see Button need to make a 4th stop while his more erratic team-mate didn't.
Similar thing with Rosberg at Merc'.

Still not keen on how it all works out with the tyres though.
It seems it's too often a case of somebody on better tyres catching a driver with worse tyres and then finding a way past, rather than 2 drivers battling without any compromise.

Nice to see Rosberg being so aggressive with Vettel too, even if it came to nothing in the end.

Dunno why Massa pitted so early in the race.
He pitted at the same time as the guys on the options.

28th win of Seb's career. Overtook Sir jackie stewart (and he won 3 world titles too)

Was that not when his tyre had completely fallen apart, or was that the two later stops?

Erm, both.

Don't think his tyre was wrecked for his first stop but it did happen twice, later on.
