    Some stats here on who has been the best at overtaking at the start of the race and during the race after the first lap.

    http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/...ettel-wurde-noch-nicht-ueberholt-5585636.html

    Still don't understand why some people say he cant hack it in the pack after the start when his stats are better than Alonso's and he hasn't actually been overtaken once on track!
    :smiley-finger007:

    Only Petrov can boast that as well but it might have to do that he is always by himself on race day.

    Alonso though being the king of starts! 14-0

    Sad news that Lewis' Auntie has died this morning. This will only motivate him even more. He will want to win for her. God bless her soul.

    My beautiful aunt Diane passed away this morning with the family by her side. Been the toughest day for us all but we will make it through

    He must have some kind of social disorder.

    The one thing we've all said is weak on Vettel's part is his one-lap qualifying speed................ how may poles did he pull ouf of the bag last year!? FFS I am not a Vettel fan but even I found what Marko said to be totally laughable!!

    Have gone for Lewis. Sad news about his Auntie. He'll win it for her. I just have a feeling it's Hamilton's race.

    Just seen people correct up Eau Rouge, and I would like to renew my respect for these drivers, justifying their salaries.
