Vettel brakes too late? It looks like Webber did lot give any room in Copse. Vettel should have pulled back.

Yes, If Turkey taught us anything it is what you have just posted. :lol: :roll:
Compared to Hamilton, Vettel is a petulant child. I'm glad karma hit him with a puncture on the first lap.

Why is Kubica so slow and holding back a dozen cars? He's ruining the race and making Hamilton and Webber relatively untouchable. [-X

I love how the referees didn't even pay attention to Alonso overtaking Kubica off track.

The stewards usually take some laps to give out penalties, so he still might get one. Question is if they will punish him, they were side by side and Kubica pushed him wide. Could go either way..

Vertical pillar on Rosbergs car has popped off. Loss of downforce on his car then.

I'm interested what Alonso will say about his accident with Massa.

Well, do you remember the situation which involved Ham and Rai during Belgian GP two years ago? Ham cut the corner because he was forced to, but allowed Rai to overtake him afterwards. I think it's quite clear, but i may be wrong.

You are probably right. It is under investigation now.

Edit: And there it is.. Drive through

Oh dear, Alonso penalized. Mansell what are you doing?

Safety Car. Not bad for Vettel. But also not so good.

I think these stewards are on a time delay, safety car is out. Amazed at how slow they are to react, I know they have to look at everything in detail, but the delay is simply too long.

Alonso will lose alot of time and places, either way. His luck just got worse.
Hamilton will now have a better chance of gaining first place.

Don't Massa and Vettel have to pit again? Under the max 200km per tire rule that bridgestone put in for certain races, including silverstone?
