2010 Formula 1 Etihad Airways Abu Dhabi Grand Prix

If Kubica gets a drive-through Alonso might have a chance. He would really need to overtake Petrov then.

And Rosberg.

 

[Akmuq]

Oh, he has to take Petrov now and then drive the tyres off that Ferrari. Rosberg's tyres will be shot though.

 

[Joie de vivre!]

Totally Ferrari's fault. They called Alonso in pits too early.

He did not get advantage against those, who were in pits while SC was on track.

Geez, even my granma can figure out when is the right time to pit.

So Ferrari, nice job, Seb is the champ!!!

I doubt they would hand out a penalty for anything so minor... but Alonso really has to overtake Petrov. Great time for Petrov to kick up his driving a notch!

Alonso seems to bring out the best in other drivers. Button suddenly finds his second wind due to him... now Petrov drives a great defense...

 

[Goudvis]

My money is on Hamilton!!

 

[Roo]

Trulli has a rear wing failure

Petrov playing himself in for a Toro Rosso drive?

Only if Vettel wins this race.

Hi, sorry for being such a noob, but is this right? Vettel has 231 points, and if he finishes first, he will be on 256 points right? and if Fernando, who is on 246 points will finish 5th, he will be on 256 points then Vettel will win? and if the result is Vettel, Hamilton, Button, Webber, Alonso, then he will lose?. I know so many questions. sorry.

I was replying to grbmrdj's scenario, so yes.

I'm not sure if I heard correctly, but I think the BBC commentator said that Vettel has not lead the Championship so far this season. Anyone know if that's right?

If I remember rightly, Vettel has never led the championship in any season.

 

[Akmuq]

My money is on Hamilton!!

I don't think we are watching the same race.

 

[Tired Tyres]

My that Lotus is well put together!

 

[Robin]

YAY Vettel!!!!!!!!

That Lotus is obviously held together with sellotape!

 

[Joie de vivre!]

EARLY PIT CALL, that's all I have to say about this race.

The advantage against Petrov and others was just too small when Alonso and Webber pitted. Petrov and Rosberg were in pits while SC and logically they stuck behind them. Brilliant job Ferrari, B-R-I-L-L-I-A-N-T!!!

Seb, nice job! Easy one!

 

[Roo]

We have a winner. Congratulations Seb, well deserved - would've won by Korea without the reliability issues. Red 5 wins again 👍

We started in the desert, not so far from the Yas Marina. Bahrain was boring, and some thought we would have a boring season...

...Now, we end the season, back in the desert. Four drivers came to this race, with a chance to win the WDC.

In the final lap, Vettel leads to the finish line. What a great ending, to a great season.

 

[Akmuq]

As much as I don't like him.
Congratulations to Sebastian Vettel and congratulations as well to astrosdude.

 

[Rossticles]

Yessss! I knew the championship was Vettel's at Bahrain. What a season!

 

[Alex p.]

YES, Vettel! Congrats, he so deservs this.

 

[d3uc3_dropp3r]

Well guys, it was an awesome season, bring on 2011!!

 

[niky]

Fantastic!

Vettel is now the youngest ever F1 champion. He deserves it. Fantastic driver. Not a perfect driver, not the best in car-to-car battles... but this is a guy whose pure skill is undeniable.

Hamilton second. Great end to a disappointing season. Fastest lap. Great push. Too bad traffic ruined it for him.

Button picks the very last race of the season to kick it up a notch... finishes a well-deserved third.

Nico in fourth. Great run for him. Too bad for Schumacher... great qualifying, and he could have been here, instead.

Kubica and Petrov. Great strategy from Renault... gets both their cars in good scoring positions.

Poor Alonso. Retirement? Heart medication? I can imagine him cursing away in the cockpit right now. He really got the short end of this stick.

Webber. Towel thrown. Verily. Not exactly unexpected, but really... I was expecting more.

Massa... hang in there baby, there's always next year...

 

[Touring Mars]

Congratutations Sebastian Vettel!

@ Vettel on the radio!!

 

[astrosdude91]

Vettel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Red Bull!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Aldo]

Great job Petrov...
So glad it wasn't Alonso that won because he is just a grumpy 🤬
Great radio message from Vettel
Good driving Seb 👍
Edit: That just proves my point about Alonso. What a bell-end.

 

[Camillo]

Just great !

 

[Peter]

No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Robin]

He so deserves it! so much pure talent....... now he's crying!!!

 

[Alex p.]

Haha Vettel cries nice!

 

[Joie de vivre!]

He's crying NICE ONE VETTEL!!!

 

[Tired Tyres]

Well done Vettel. The new youngest ever F1 World Champion.

 

[Akmuq]

Vettel pit radio.

Alonso is furious at Petrov.

 

[DGiant2000]

Alonso waving his fist at Petrov!! What a poor loser.

 

[Robin]

Alonso swearing at Petrov... like he did anything wrong! Jeez get real!

 

[Greycap]
