ooh late decision

Setroc · 22 May 2011 at 13:31

how many stops for vettel? 2 stops done, less than a third of the way through

Phreaky · 22 May 2011 at 13:31

Risky strategy by Vettel.

Katoom · 22 May 2011 at 13:32

Hammy put some fast laps in.

Mike_P · 22 May 2011 at 13:32

vettel wins

Kenai · 22 May 2011 at 13:32

McLaren doing things differently - can't help but feel that Hamilton will end up behind the lot of them.

He can't go faster on those tyres surely?

Phreaky · 22 May 2011 at 13:33

Fair played, it worked

Flibster · 22 May 2011 at 13:33

Alonso and Webber pit...

Interesting strategy change for Ferrari and Red Bull. Worked as they got the free space to work.

Vettel wins without a competitive overtake, nice.....

So when he was dumped into the arse end of the top 10 and fought his way through doesn't count?

Lunatic Dreyfus · 22 May 2011 at 13:35

So Vettel and Co. need to make 2 sets of tyres last 45 laps...

Should be fun to watch. They can barely make 'em last 10.

utajoker · 22 May 2011 at 13:35

hammy should have pitted this lap.

Mike_P · 22 May 2011 at 13:35

vettel reeling hammy in

therealnerd2 · 22 May 2011 at 13:35

Baaah, vettel got it in the bag

Good strategy though. Only hope is vettel's tyres collapsing.

Kenai · 22 May 2011 at 13:36

I can see McLaren pushing this too far and Hamilton's tyres just giving up

Phreaky · 22 May 2011 at 13:36

Vettel should have this now.

Mike_P · 22 May 2011 at 13:37

alonso slightly faster than hammy, hammy's gonna end up in 4th after stop

Flibster · 22 May 2011 at 13:37

Alonso and Hamilton are matching each other - I don't think the gap is going to get any bigger. If anything, it's going to close quickly.

0.3s down already.

utajoker · 22 May 2011 at 13:37

go in the pits hamilton!!!

Psycho Ned · 22 May 2011 at 13:38

McLaren in ballsing tactics up shocker...........

Edit: maybe not just got out in front!
