Formula One 2011

So Vettel put the pettel to the mettel again.

Wasn't a boring race though, certainly the first half at least was action-packed.

Aye, cracking drives by Button and Webber considering where they were after the start

Why is Mark Webber so pathetic at starts? He's like my Dad accelerating when the traffic light turns green FFS. Takes him about 30 seconds to get going......

The team put a time delay on his clutch to ensure that he doesn't get in the german's way

funny because it's true

Schumacher 24 > 5.

One for the future, perhaps?

**chuckle**

Michael 'foldable' Shumacher might be a danger in next year's car, if Merc keeps developing.

At least weber didn't waste effort trying to qualify well

He has a cunning plan. By starting from fifth, he won't be parked over the giant electro-magnet Vettel's mechanics buried under p2.

*waiting for Webber to blow another start*

Carnage on the first corner. At least four cars involved.

Oh, and Webber stuffed his start again, but was just through ahead of the stack.

I could set my watch to it...

As you could to this...

Vettel takes the lead.

At least Webber has saved us the bother of watching him storm past the rest of the field then sitting behind Vettel for 20 laps.

He's managed to wipe the nose off his car, then crash out.

He's done well to drive the fastest car on the grid to fourth overall in the standings, Webber.

What a talent.

Remember the good old days when this was actually a competitive sport and required more than the ability to pull 10 Gs into the first corner after the race director started your car for tyou.

Title likely to be confirmed for Vettel at the next race, I think a podium would be enough.

In the season where they've brought back a lot of excitement to the racing itself, they've been rewarded with the most boring title race since Schumacher was in his dominant era...

The Red Bull is just miles faster than everyone else. Normally when a car starts the season way ahead in its development - like Button's Brawn a few years ago - everyone catches up eventually and the title race closes in as a result.

But it just hasn't happened this year. Whether that's due to the rules on testing or whatever, I don't know. But Red Bull have maintained a steady gap over the pack over the course of the entire season to date.

Which is a shame, as the rest of the pack are quite close to each other, which is making for some decent racing.

It's because Vettel's a cheat. Even if he's winning fair and square, he's German, so he must be cheating. I mean Webber's been voted 'the best driver' by his peers on several times. He has the same car, yet he can't catch Vettel. Ergo, Seb is a cheat.

You know it makes sense.

Sounds like Massa and Lewis FFS had a bit of argy bargy after the race last night.

Vettel is making F1 as boring as Schumacher did.

That's why they need post race fisticuffs.
