Dear God someone stop this Spaniard!

For the sake of F1 we need to stop him getting a dominant car at all costs!

He had a dominant car in 07, got beat by a rookie

what happened to all those "RainMasters" today?

There were only two today.

Button and Hamilton in the first stint when it was actually raining?

Sour grapes much?And Hamilton... In that car he should never have people driving off into the sunset in front of him.

Mercedes still only has one point. Not the start they were looking for.

Mercedes = sprinter. In the race, you need to be a marathon runner.

Another error in the race from Vettel. 2 in 2. Not so luck this time hey Seb

To me this just shows how little pressure he was under last year.

[zeph]

While I agree that the call was suspect, it is possible that Sauber were genuinely concerned about possible altercations if Perez would attempt to overtake Alonso.

Hamilton SOOL today. He didn't put a foot wrong but strategy and pitstops ruined his race.

ahahahah, Andrea Stella could not believe Fred crossed the line in 1st place XD

[NathanOlder]

Yeah, Last year everything clicked and he didnt put a foot wrong (cananda only real exception)
Now a bit of pressure, and it appears to be getting to him

Yet today he stomped him with that *BEEP* Ferrari(not really Hamiltons fault so much as the team but he should've been able to outrace the cars in front of him)

Button and Hamilton in the first stint when it was actually raining?

Sour grapes much?

Or just pointing out the flaw in your fanboi comment. What about the drives from Senna, Vergne, Raikkonen, Schumacher, etc. What did Alonso actually do in the rain other than pit at the right time and steal the lead after McLaren messed up?

It was a good drive from Alonso in a poor car, but it wasn't anywhere near being dominant enough to basically slag off the rest of the field. Good strategy, fairly good pace and a huge heap of luck got Alonso that win.

Hamilton SOOL today. He didn't put a foot wrong but strategy and pitstops ruined his race.

He didn't have the pace of the Sauber though. Which was absolutely weird. In fact no one had.

Alonso and Perez both drove fantastic races but what happened in the end overshadows it all. Blatant manipulation of race results is DISGUSTING plain and simple.

The FIA are to blame for this mockery.

Thanks to Sauber, Ferrari and the FIA for causing me to question myself why I'm watching F1 after all.

So you think it's impossible for a 2nd-year driver to screw up on a drying track with the pressure of fighting for the win?

Tough crowd.

My thought.

Perez is lucky he did not spin out otherwise he may not even be on the podium.

Hamilton SOOL today. He didn't put a foot wrong but strategy and pitstops ruined his race.

Is it just me or do 90% of the wins get thrown away by an great strategy at McLaren?

[SeijaKessen]

Congratulations to Bruno Senna for getting Williams their first points of the 2012 season...he drove a good race.

What did Alonso actually do in the rain other than pit at the right time and steal the lead after McLaren messed up?

He won the race. That should count for something, yanno?

That was probably set up with rain in mind. as all cars in the midfield can take this risk.
Are you saying Perez was quickest because his car was the best ? or he was the best ? or the car was set up the best ?
