How is it Vettels fault though? I don't understand all this moaning. The rules are made long in advance of any season... if it was any other driver leading they too would benefit.

I wish people would quit their moaning, no one is ever happy. One minute people are moaning because the race is over, then they suggest a restart and allow EVERYONE fresh tyres and the moaning begins again.

If anyone ruined this race it was Alguersuari/Petrov, they crashed and caused the red flag scenario.

Why do you have to be 'that guy' and try to argue the other point? It's obvious why this is stupid. Nobody is saying its Vettels fault, people are saying its just gonna be a parade to the end with all on new tyres.

I never said it was Vettels fault, I was just saying that it would have been a good fight at the end regardless of who won.

I could never have been an F1 driver because if I was Alonso after the luck Vettel has had in this race I'd just slam into him screw it

This. I would just RAM him off of the track.

I was really looking forward to an exciting end to this race. But the new tires, bah. Makes me feel Ive been cheated out of some entertainment :/

aspirins · 29 May 2011 at 14:55

So annoyed they can change tyres, could've been a good restart and end to the race

Contrary to what DC/MB said, I'm pretty sure that as soon as the safety car went out, DRS was disabled.. so I am guessing that it will be the same with the red flag situation, that DRS wont enable until after the safety car pulls back in..

Stupid rule ruining the race. Because someone else has some bad luck everyone else lucks-in and gets to change tyres on the grid when otherwise they would have to take the time penalty of driving through the pits.

Makes. No. Sense.

That Mclaren wing looks really heavy. For some reason i didn't expect that.

It's got chunks of tungsten in the front wing to lower the CoG and the weight distribution.

I'm not 'that guy' I just see it for what it is..

It makes sense in a big shunt involving lots of cars, it means we can actually have a race. Rather than 15cars all coming in for extensive 10minute + repairs.

aspirins · 29 May 2011 at 14:57

I don't see why they should be allowed to do anything at all. Simply stop, wait, restart.

Flibster · 29 May 2011 at 14:58

Tarmac run offs suck! No penalty for leaving the track.

exia · 29 May 2011 at 14:58

I'm watching this race every lap constantly wondering who going to crash next, place is like a death trap. Hope no one else comes out injured.

Rubbish end to what was shaping up to be an excellent finish (for once), so annoyed. Before the crash those few laps were some of the best I'd ever seen in f1

+1 It's been along time since I was watching an F1 race sitting forward perched on the edge of the sofa

Rybo89 · 29 May 2011 at 14:58

restarting on safety car is just proper s....

pingwing · 29 May 2011 at 14:58

Put everyone on the tyres they like and lets hope everyone hammers it in the last few laps!

Glaucus · 29 May 2011 at 14:59

It is a darn shame, but it's the nature of the sport.
