Please Techman continue trolling about how sh+t is Alo, because he will probably made his best to s++t your mouth as he did today.
yeah just because alonso race pace was better in austin doesnt change the fact for most of this season , jenson race pace is better than his and the bad luck jenson has to take this season. jenson only problem is his qualifying and again the team screwed him up in austin and coming from low down the grid is always much harder . hopefully it does not happen again in mexico. cant wait for mexico.

Also very important to mention is the increase in fuel efficiency from Honda.

Can't remember the last time FA & JB complaint about fuel saving =D> =D>

Well that was a much needed Result after the Suzuka disaster. Great Race from Fernando, he really lost nothing of his agressiveness. Also Jenson from P19 to P9. =D> =D>

RAI / VES out but that still would mean P7, very nice. A bit of lock to P5, very nice :-D
Solid race from Jenson as well considering the tire saving.

Good result, but don't forget also Hulkenberg and Bottas got out! a lot of work to do.
Passing Massa is easy thing, as well as passing Sainz on olt tires. But the good point is reliability improved and Alonso still a champion

Very good performance by both drivers and the car itself. Good pace, no great problems with tyre management and fuel consumption. Good.

Alonso´s last laps were spectacular!!

Mexico will be tough but at least this race gave a good feeling.

We were lucky for sure but awesome result. Alonso was the star of the show, he's still as talented as ever! Just give him a car just near the front next year and he will get the job done. Can't wait for 2017 to see the fruits paying off, hopefully.

Now about the trolls, just let them troll and humiliate themselves.
Good fun !

Very good race effort from Alonso and Button as well. As much as i dont like Alonso due to his dramaqueen behaviour, he really showed yesterday that he is passionate for racing. We should also not forget about Button which came from 19th to 9th, and maybe he would be infront of Perez as well if there would not be the 2 seconds longer pitstop which costed him position, and that head on collision with debris.

Add The Hulk and Bottas and maybe 9th ?


We wouldn't have even caught Massa except that he couldn't get past Sainz.


But hey, it was good fun.

Mexico's corners will suit McLaren enough to balance out the straights.
