He actually overtook faster cars like Button, Webber, Maldonado, and then dragged that car within a second of the race win.

No bullshit safety car luck.

Without the sc Alonso would not have caught Kimi and Maldonado

Alonso never did catch Kimi.
And Maldo's tyres were falling so he would have caught the Pasta(pun intended)

Vettel on the other hand...

So insulting Vettel is somehow more acceptable? anyway it wasn't an insult just laughing at all of you :twisted:[/quote]

He's been found out..Why would you laugh at us?[/quote]

If it was Hamilton that did this race and won exactly the same way as Vettel it would be a celebrated win...

Alonso's car was as good as Button's in the race. Button couldn't even stay with him at the end!
You always compare Alonso with the worst of mcLaren o RBR car. Try to compaire the Ferrari with Hamilton car or simply with the other Ferrari.

Fantastic drive from vettel =D>
I never thought he could reach p3 from pitlane!
Is that a record or something?
Last time it was Schumy who got to p5 from pitlane, when was the last time who got into podium from pitlane?

Simple question

Can someone please explain to me how this was a "great" drive

-Breaks part of his front wing during a clumsy overtake, lucky not to do further damage.
-Crashes into a bollard/sign during the safety car and further damages the front wing.
-Passed Grosjean by going off the track and had to give the place back.
-Red Bull Sacrificed Webber by making him pit so Vettel could get past
-Got bailed out by two safety cars, the second car's timing couldnt be any better
-Struggled to Overtake button on fresh soft tyres against a car on Mediums.

Does this dispell anyone's misgiving's on how good Vettel is?

Feel free to disagree.
