Woo hoo P1 Webbo, now let's win it tomo

007MCoupe · 11-02-2013, 11:55 AM

inb4 webber DNF...

hoping for a win for him though

E90SLAM · 11-02-2013, 12:29 PM

Great lap by Webbo!!!
Now let's keep the car in one piece or away from fire.

954Stealth · 11-02-2013, 02:25 PM

Nico did well too based on previous season at this track.

johanness · 11-02-2013, 02:58 PM

Hulkenberg starting in 5th now that Kimi's starting from the back. I pity those getting stuck behind the Hulk lol

lol him tacking back and forth and blocking like that could get annoying as we saw with Alonso

Great quali by WEB. I loved the from above shots of some of his lap, he sure hit those apexes as good as anyone. Now, let's hope he manages a good start and that his car doesn't explode on him. I keep my fingers crossed for Hulk and Kimi as well.

EINSER M · 11-03-2013, 08:13 AM

after 1/55

RAI: no pay no race
WEB: another wasted pole
VET: über alles

doc19 · 11-03-2013, 08:44 AM

a bit of a snoozer of a race... nothing surprising at all.

E90SLAM · 11-03-2013, 11:18 AM

A few scraps here and there. Another dominant victory of Vettel.
Webber did extremely given a botched start again. Could've lost a few more places to GRO and ROS.

Overall is alright, not too excited.

This. ZZZZZZZ

johanness · 11-03-2013, 01:03 PM

Waiting for FA to receive a penalty for his re-entry from the pits

M_Six · 11-03-2013, 01:09 PM

Ain't happenin'. Stewards let it slide.

Loved Kimi bailing out. He didn't wait long to damage the car and call it a day. I wish they had better angles on the replay. From the onboard it was hard to tell if the bump was unavoidable.

solstice · 11-03-2013, 01:47 PM

Is the race already over? Sorry I must have fallen asleep, did VET win with 30 minutes? Oh, just 30s, damn I must have missed some nail biting battles for first.

Kimi is my favourite driver a the moment but Ferrari and Alonso must be watching the drama and wonder, what the heck are we getting ourselves into...

M_Six · 11-03-2013, 02:06 PM

I'll recap. Vettel got a better start than Webber and ran away with the race.

Should pretty much hold true for the remaining races, just in case you miss another one.

Thanks, hopefully there were some good battles between Pic and Bianchi for 19th to make up for it.

Shouldn't be surprised the stewards didn't do shit about it. Nothing but special treatment for FA as per usual.
Funny tho... Grosjean was much faster than Massa and stayed a lot closer to the track than Alonso did today. Bullshit lack of consistency in decision making.

954Stealth · 11-04-2013, 08:48 AM

maybe not for that, but they will fine RBR again for Vet's mini burnout at the end

Nang Vann · 11-04-2013, 04:00 PM

Great stuff from Red Bull.

So did anything happen to Alonso?

johanness · 11-05-2013, 04:19 AM

Nothing happened to either.

SenorFunkyPants · 11-05-2013, 04:38 AM

Since all the drivers were going off the track at various places its a bit harsh to pick out FA as being worth a penalty - especially as he was partly alongside JEV before being forced off the tarck.

Chihuahua · 11-05-2013, 06:55 AM

....just woke up, what did I miss? Oh, the usual? cool. wake me up in an hour....
