Interesting how the decision about Vettel was to be discussed after the race, but as soon as Hamilton had the safety issue and a pit stop, the decision changed to a 10sec pit stop penalty. Just a funny thing.

At least according to Sky.
Well they dont want respective fans changing channel, this definitely adds spice to the race.
 
The Techpro barrier on the outside of the final corner onto the main straight worries. If a car a clips that wall, it will catch then you can have an enourmous crash.
 
Did I say anything about turning into someone being corporate?

So were you referring to something else Vettel did when you said this?

No more coporate "yes" man, a bit of emotion and passion is needed here and Vettel just displayed that.

Because you certainly aren't referring to anything else here:

Oh wow, he tapped someone at an incredibly low speed, what an arse. Seriously, he was wronged by Hamilton, so he showed some passion. Get over it.

Being brake tested is not an excuse for deliberately turning into someone.

Everyone harks on about wanting the old days back

I don't.

People punched each other in the face back in "the old days".

"Some drivers used to be bigger arses" is not an excuse for deliberately turning into someone.

If Vettel did that at a much higher speed, then it'd be a problem, but at that low speed, seriously, I don't see a problem, especially when no one sustained damage.

The point isn't what speed it happened at or what damage was caused. If someone can't keep their emotions in check to the extent they'll start aiming their car at other cars, they have no place on the track imo.
 
If Vettel keeps his racing licence the Governing body will have proved itself gutless and unfit for governance.
 
Did Alonso really think he would've won the race?

They may have won the first DNF.

Your sarcasm meter is broken. He's basically saying had the car actually had a proper engine, he could actually fight for wins on days like this.

Magnussen seems to forget that he is fighting for position.

Tell that to the car breaking down nothing to do with the driver.
