RE: my last post was just as Webber's wing got damaged so may no longer be valid.

Once you're lapped you should just retire and that should be your finishing position

Van Der Garde incident under investigation - ignoring blue flags.

Webber could not buy luck ever

If it wasn't for massa this race would be a snooze fest.

Broken wing makes you go faster

Webber and alonso flying up to hamilton, excellent :cool:

Absolutely loving watching Alonso and Webber driving. They always entertain.

4 seasons in and still nothing but mobile chicanes...

If only the FIA had chosen half decent teams

Haven't seen a proper stop go for a while

MooMoo444 · 9 Jun 2013 at 19:56

I never understand the point of giving a backmarker a stop/go. They aren't racing for points so it's not even a punishment.

Flibster · 9 Jun 2013 at 19:56

Button being informed that he will be getting blue flags as Hamilton is coming up to lap him.

Van Der Garde gets a 10 second stop-go penalty. Ignoring blue flags and causing a collision. Not had one of them for a while.

10sec stop-go is quite a lot these days! Plenty of 'worse' incidents that should have got one IMHO.

Kimi needs to retire then I guessing by that sentence?

Skeeter · 9 Jun 2013 at 19:58

The teams seem controlled by computer simulations. Common sense tells you managing tyres is not the fastest way but it seems nobody wants to go with their gut and instead just sticks with the computer program.

Cavallino · 9 Jun 2013 at 19:58

GO Alonso

pingwing · 9 Jun 2013 at 19:59

Yay Fred a good pass

Ethermaster · 9 Jun 2013 at 19:59

FINALLY ALONSO !!!

Points aren't decided half way through, anything can happen.

Plus the back end teams are ordered based on finishing positions so its still a penalty.

If it wasn't why would we bother to have any more than 10 cars?
