dont think webber read the team orders for that qualifying  :grin: :laugh:

I was just thinking that.  :grin:

Immense session from LH. Shame inconsistencies have led to him being so far down the pecking order. It would be great to have a three horse race. I sincerely hope Kimi holds on to third spot though. What an achievement that would be. Massa out, Kimi in at Ferrari.  :laugh:

Just announced. Vettel handed penalty to start from back of grid for not making it back to pits. This opens up the championship right open.




Alooooonso!!!!!

He's got to start from pit lane fella, so even further behind.  :grin:

Having said that if Vettel can somehow manage to get into the points and Alonso doesn't much further better his position of 7th on the grid, then it's not going to be quite as dramatic as one might assume it to be, as far as Alonso gaining ground is concerned.

I'm going for LH to win, Webber for second and Alonso for third. (Mind you I'm usually wrong)

They sent him back of the grid, there he can choose to start from pitlane or not.

Oh okay then, It's just that Christian Horner confirmed on the BBC coverage that Vettel will start from the pit lane, to allow them to make certain changes (Ie; lengthening the top gear and changing tyres) :smiley:

Agree, so lucky. One of the tracks known for its lack of overtaking and he manages to stand on the podium thanks to everyone else crashing and from two extremely lucky safety car timings.

Kimi is a legend. His pit radio conversations today were brilliant and well deserved victory. SV drove like a Champion today and Monobrow's face says it all, he knows he's beat.
