2012 US GP - Circuit of the Americas

You can twist truths however like you like. mclaren was predominantly fast in first sector when it mattered to get drs. Backmarkers were also a deciding factor. No fanboyism, just facts. Also nice gesture from vettel to hamilton after crossing the finnish line. No words from haters about that one huh?

You're right, the McLaren beat the RBR in S1... Which nearly accounted for the RBR demolishing the McLaren in S3.

Seriously, I can't see how you can argue with the two RBR drivers averaging similar lap times, and the two McLaren drivers having very different lap times, the average of which was slower than the RBR.

The only conclusion I can draw from that is that the McLaren was the slower car, but HAM made the difference to win the race.

Some people can't analyse facts, in those occasion you just have to ignore them.

Is there an ignore feature here, there are a few fan boys who I just get sick of hearing.

great race!! Hamilton .... but Vettel is the "new" world champion. Alonso to win championship need to beat Sebastian but without any failure he can't do that. Red Bull car is so $#(%# FAST!

Good Job Lewis!! thx Mercedes for another great race =D>

this is first ever time Schumy has gone without for 4 races any point since his debut

[NathanOlder]

Lewis was the difference today

[zeph]

Hamilton won the race because he had the faster car. He made a couple of mistakes which Vettel did not. Vettel simply lost position because he had misfortune in traffic. Nice for Hamilton but not a giant killing drive by him.

Sour grapes, much?

We all just saw how he ripped Vettel a new one. And Vettel weaved twice prior to Hamilton's overtake. Not a mistake, but he was fortunate to get away with that.

Different strategy on buttons car. Webber was much slower than hamilton when they were all running in clean air.

Yes we don't know if he was clapping honestly or clapping to sarcasm just telling him, Bravo! stupid.
I hope the FIA take matters with his language he can't continue insulting people

Makes no difference it was genuine or not, What matters is that it was there. Its hard for the driver to compliment others right after the race when emotions are still on a high, espcialy after a race like this one.

Im sure he didnt score a point at Spa in 98 ?

I presume he means, second debut.

wait, his accel. pedal was out of order in quali

You're trying to use qualy as evidence that the McLaren is a superior car to the RedBull? Did I miss understand you? If I didn't, you're truly mad!

? no but Button finished 5th from 12th grid slot. McLaren was a good car this WE, on par with RB. HAM, VET, ALO the best of the best in any order ! Let's party. Juzh stated the slightly trolly stuff not I

And there's Rick Perry. Good thing he doesn't have to hand out all three driver's trophies, or else he would have forgotten the third.

Whahahahahahaha, good one!

Yeah , his post was edited, it didnt mention anything about 4 races first time round

[Sombrero]

Texas can be proud we have seen a spectacular race on a superb track.

Which just goes to show how well Hamilton was driving. I'll say this again – the average of the two RBRs was faster than the average of the two McLs.

McLaren was a just a bit faster on race pace compared to RBR.

Redbull drivers weren't posting similar times. If it were Webber would not have been passed by Lewis and wouldn't be 6s behind...

Secondly, if we use that stupid Button logic, we could have never called RBR as the best car. Webber even never managed to finish 2nd in WDC. A fourth, a third and now 5th in championship....

[vall]

the wrong Red Bull had the problem! again....

Well duh, Button's car broke down in Qually, so obviously he was out of position. Doesn't change the fact that the average pace of the McLs was slower than the average pace of the RBRs.
