2013 Italian GP - Monza

[zeph]

NBC commentators saying "It has been an incredible race between RedBull and Ferrari", did we watch the same race?!?

Ferrari never even came close.

Somebody should tell FOM that the other teams have radio too.

NBC is terrible... I watch all the races online streaming from sky F1 on firstrowsports.eu

Booring.

Rosberg is clumsy, Hamilton and Grosjean are one of the few capable of pulling overtakes when they have to (could have been better without ingenious start on mediums strategy ), Button can't overtake, walk in the park for Vettel, Webber's car is falling apart. Overall - great race.

Booring but overall a great race? How lol

Yeh, wasn't even close. It looked like it would be that way after the first couple of laps.
Getting a bit fed up of this procession. Thank goodness the rules are changing next year.
The Mercedes had a surprisingly good race car today.

Well done Red Bulland Vettel!!

Well done to Kimi and Lewis for giving us some proper racing compared to the boring run at the front. Overtaking in current F1, who'd have thought it...

being rosberg fan i was so pissed today. his pace was sooooooooo much faster and better... even better than vettel alonso webber, massa. i mean both hamilton and rosberg if they had started their grid on first row, they would have crushed vettel to bits and pieces today. thats how good their race pace was. i was watching live timing and my god.. hamilton was so fast. he was so unlucky. damn rosberg ... i am so let down today.. had he passed hulkenberg.. he would have had massa and webber right on his sight. podium was totally possible for one of the cars!!!

either way i am impressed with merc. singapore they should be better..

So is the championship all but over now?

34.1

I suspect that is a typo, I think they are referring to the "written request" bit in 34.2. I agree it is odd that it is such a consistent mistake.

.... Any work not listed above may only be undertaken with the approval of the FIA technical delegate following a written request from the team concerned. It must be clear that any replacement part a team wishes to fit is similar in mass, inertia and function to the original. Any parts removed will be retained by the FIA ...

GJ Vettel and hulk! Both Rbs having issues so conspiracy theorists can have some rest.

[SilverArrow10]

The Hamilton and Kimi fight back was epic!!! made the race something to watch.

Kimi and Lewis were great today. Shown their worth!

[sidmiester]

maybe its the temperature... i dont know, but i was just pleasently surprised merc were like almost close to 0.7-0.8 faster per lap than anybody. lewis was setting purple couple of times. rosberg was setting good race pace too. damn i gotta feeling that merc may have messed up big time with set ups and reliability problems.
either way singapore should be interesting.

is anyone still left with any doubt ?. i think alonso has also accepted the outcome, for a change he was smiling in green room.

Yes. It really needs a couple of DNF for Vettel for the title race to stay interesting. He just needs to podium from now on to win it.
