Voted Vettel. He had to defend from Mark, Romain and Kimi throughout the race. Had a KERS issue for some laps in the race. He and his team had to react to the strategies from the Lotus team multiple times in the […]

I believe Vettel is performing at a higher level this year than even 2011, his most dominant year in F1 till now

@KeithCollantine: Is it correct that Vettel is second on the list of drivers having won races at different tracks. I believe he has now won at 19 different tracks, one more than Alan Prost. I believe the leader […]

Even I was surprised when Kimi pitted on lap 8. Once Kimi pitted, Romain went on the same sets for another 5 laps without any drop in performance.

This could very well be the reason for Lewis’s struggles

What I think is Vettel makes a note of all the mistakes he has done in the past and tries not to repeat then and judging by the statistics, seems to be doing a pretty good job at it.

Also, I believe he is […]

Maybe it was down down to the blistering laps he put in initially when he took on the softs.
I did not expect Alonso to put on the softs till lap 52. But even then he should not have run out of fuel.

I also think that Grosjean should have released Kimi earlier than he did. Also, the fact that Vettel (and also Grosjean) were able to go ahead of Lewis at the end without loosing too much must have helped Vettel at the end.

Gave the race 9 out of 9 for all the different tyre strategies and the safety car intervention.
I must add that felt very bad for Massa and Webber for their problems.

Last year, Vettel did not win a single race in Europe. This year, he has won 1 out 4 races till now.
With 3 more races in Europe to go, let us see what his final tally will be.

What is the latest time by which Renault and Red Bull need to finalize their driver line-up for next year

Thanks for the explanation

We all have opinions – but the only ones which count are those of the authorities.

Exactly. If we did not have respect for the authorities, there would be total chaos. For those who are not happy with the […]

Really feel gutted for Nico. I was watching the Live Timing on Formula1.com and could not believe when I saw that Nico’s name was not in Q3.

As far as the start is concerned, are the drivers starting from the odd side of the grid at any advantage over the drivers starting from the even side of the grid

Vettel will need to beware of Webber who starts behind him on the clean side of the grid.
Does the clean side and dirty side matter that much at this circuit.

Seeing the speed trap, the Red Bull is less than 5 kph slower than the fastest car. Is this due to the nature of the circuit or is it that Red Bull have made some gains in straight line speed (could the gain have […]

With this pole position of Lewis, Mercedes has twice the number of pole positions (3 Nico + 3 Lewis) as compared to Red Bull (3 Vettel)
