It's all going to pot for Hamilton, that Renault looks very quick in a straight line.

Hamilton has just been on the radio begging for a pit stop. The guy on the other end of the radio said no, they can't afford it timewise. :lol:

Kubica has ruined this race for me, I really wanted to see Hamilton and Vettel have a battle royale. And even let Button have a go as well!

I dont mean to moan, but this race really is bringing F1's troubles to the fore.

Firstly how the hell can a soft tyre last 41 laps?
Secondly, Is it even possible to overtake at this track with 2 cars within a seconds pace of each other? The sauber/renault overtake doesnt count as it was a move created by Vettel chopping in front of Kobayashi compromising him on the straight.
Thirdly, does Horner want to raise the issue of engine disparity again?
Seems Kubicas Renault is doing plenty well enough keeping the Mclarens behind.

And Finally(point 2.1 if you like) Tile should be hanged for crimes against F1!!!!

it's not Kubica's fault Hamilton is too slow to pass him.

btw, well done for Robert. if he'll keep the pace he may be in front of Alonso after his pit stop.

Exciting race - not so much in terms of overtakings though...
My god McLaren has to take a thorough look at their pitstop processes. The number of times they've been significantly slower than the opposition this season must be frustrating.

It's only a fault with the radio it seems. Nothing to worry about.

It's not sour grapes, I'm merely stating that what I was really looking forward to was a Hamilton/Vettel battle, but Kubica has gotten in the way. Really Mclaren should of left Hamilton out longer to make sure they got Kubica and Kobayashi, they were about half a second quicker a lap anyway.
