    It's been an unusually dull Spa.

    There's been some good wheel to wheel battles, but obviously there's never been a battle for the race win which always tends to dampen things.

    Alonso did not look happy getting out of the car. He looks unhappy now as well.

    I wasn't expecting Vettel to be that dominant today... Not good as far as the championship is concerned

    Perhaps we should have sprinklers at every race that can be turned on at any point to spice it up.

    Its very hard to conceive the idea of someone beating Vettel/Red Bull to the championship now or any other championship in the foreseeable future to be honest.

    This trend of spraying the girls on the podium is getting on my nerves.

    I think the greenpeace protesters are doing something seeing as the crowd keep booing then cheering. Unless it's for Vettel, which I doubt is the case.

    Congrats to Red Bull and Vettel. Red Bull certainly had the correct setup for the dry and we got a dry race this time. Mercedes went for more of a compromise setup and their top speed with that setup was no match for Red Bull. So congrats to the Red Bull team and Vettel. At the same time though I wondering what problem will Webber have this time at the start, I knew he was going to have a problem once he was nest to Vettel, and true to the word he had a clutch problem it seems. I don't think Ricardo will have any better luck. He said he knows Red Bull will be fair and let him race Vettel... Well if he believes that will have a fair chance... he better wake up from his sleep and go to the bathroom because he is surely dreaming. After a few races he will wish he was somewhere else. I don't know how Webber endured this for so long... He must have a very strong heart. How is it possible that whenever Webber close to Vettel or in front something happens? Amazing. Anyway it was a great race from Vettel, he made a decisive pass early on the first lap and that was it. I think Rosberg is a bit too soft and needs to be a little more aggressive. Alonso to me was great, he sliced through from far back to take second spot..great drive. Button didnt do too badly I couldn't understand the pitting almost at the end of the race, I think he could have run to the end with the old tyres. As usual, Mclaren doesn't seem to know what to do in races in recent years. Certainly they were confused at the end, first they were telling Button about going til the end and then called him in a little later. I am sure what hurt mercedes was the fact they had the car set up for wet/dry conditions, so they compromised their top speed, but they are doing 100% better than last year for sure.

    They are angry that Shell the sponsors of the race are 'drilling the arctic'. So they tried to get on the podium and failed.

    Well that was a bit dull, in the end none of the podium places involved a fight.
