Sebastian Vettel secured another top spot on the podium today at the Malaysian GP at Sepang. Just like in Australia he had a great start and pushed to the end to keep rivals at distance. Jenson Button drove consistently to second while Nick Heidfeld secured a second podium for Lotus Renault.

Good point there Shrieker...That caught my attention too...I havent seen Hamilton look so lively in a long time now and quite in a good mood.Heck,even check Button hes looking quite calm compared to last years interviews.Shrieker wrote:
Hold on there a sec.
I've never ever seen Lewis so lively in an interview. He says Red Bull are gonna find at least half a sec. tomorrow in quali, but watch his facial expressions as he says so. I see total confidence. Unless it's something else completely, I think he believes the car will be in a MUCH better position to take the fight to the Bulls tomorrow and sunday.
Also, recently people have been complaining about drivers not showing enough character in interviews etc. (and rightfully so tbh.). If it's got nothing to do with on track performance, it's good to see something different from a driver.
Either you have a faultless day with the KERS, or you don't give out a hint that you had even the slightest of issues. If they have a KERS on their car, that is.
The Octopus is illegal and will never be run as the rules clearly state you are only allowed 2 exhaust exits to stop exactly these sort of designs (they have been around since the 80's).forty-two wrote:Completely speculative here, but perhaps they know something we don't.
Maybe they have another updated diffusor, or maybe even the much discussed "octopus" ready to be whacked on their cars tomorrow just after FP3?
Or, perhaps they have just been reminded that they're both wealthy men doing something they love, and that very few people have the opportunity to do.
Or ... something else!
Good point! They were slow because they didn`t use DRS at all!!!Ferraripilot wrote:What's with the MB top speed? In practice and at Aus they always had a very high top speed. Gearing change for this track or are they on the throttle too late out of the corner to compete in the top speed category?
