It was a classic and when I mean classic, it was a one on one dogfight from start to finish, 90's stuff.
Don't know if it's been mentioned but Vettel applauding Hamilton at the end was a decent gesture and credit to the young German where it's due.
Yup... I think that no matter who won that one that they'd have congratulated the other. Those two were pushing like crazy, each matching the other all race long. There was only one completed overtake between them but the fight was still intense. Hope to see more in Brazil!
I don't know if that has been mentioned as well but when Seb lost his temper in the audio clip after the Lewis overtake, it was actually just before the overtake happend. After Narain into sector 1, Seb knew Lewis was going to get him at that point with the "Stupid overtakes" and that's what he was pissed off about. We could see that as being a bit of a tool from the outside in, but when you have people like Helmut Marko on your back if you **** up, you're going to defend yourself pretty damn quickly when you know you weren't to blame.

Those were the kind of problems the RB8 had at the start, the coanda exhaust system was making the car erratic through corners giving no consistency. Shame we wont be able to see him in the W04 when it should be sorted out.
At first I thought he had a problem with the overtake, then I thought he was just moaning at KERS. But you're right... There was still the delay to account for. Either way it's not a big issue. I'd have probably had a bit of a moan in the same situation.
The Red Bull may not have been glued to the track in the early part of the season but it was still a great car to drive: [video=youtube;XOu0QNYbo7A]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOu0QNYbo7A[/video] [video=youtube;0PTIE6V1P74]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PTIE6V1P74[/video]
If you can Forza, find me some videos on the same tracks to compare with so we can see how bad the Ferrari was to handle compared to the Red Bull. And Alonso has to be driving it...
I can't find anything for qualifying in Australia but I have some some stuff from FP3 that I could upload if you want? Anyway this is him attempting a qualifying lap in Malaysia (but it's Q1): [video=youtube;yQO5_CBHijY]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQO5_CBHijY[/video] And here's his Q3 lap from China: [video=youtube;tJnEfl6zXGU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJnEfl6zXGU[/video]
