Pete,
From your list, am I to assume that Vettel has:

A. decided to skip a race, an early XMAS gift to DV and Ferrari?
B. will be taken out at the start by DV's BFF, Webber?
C. will come down with a mysterious illness before the race on Sunday?
D. just throwing the Alonso Athletic Supporters a sympathy vote?

multi21

Sorry Lewis, I'm not following you. I have Vettel winning.

BTW, Webber it's highly probably that Webber will take out Vettel any chance he gets. Wonder how Mark feels right now knowing that Vettel got the TC/engine mapping do hicky, and he didn't?

BTW, I decided to do a top 10 because Ray didn't have the poll up yet. Thanks for posting these threads for every race weekend Ray!!

Vettel FTW and the WDC.

These are probably the fastest times of the weekend. Tomorrow storms are predicted and Sunday is rain.
Most likely they are all switching to full wet setups ahead of Saturday's activities.

Rain may really mix up the order in quali and the race. I still think Vettel extends his lead in the WDC.

Tedster

Rain gives Alonso the best chance to upset the Vettel domination. He has shown that with good strategy and bad weather he can overcome the RB juggernaut.

Flying Finn

Besides Vettel (he's just unstoppable at the moment), pretty,exiting race, lot of close battles around.
Kimi & Hulk both drove hell of a race, excellent drive from both.

I repeat myself, why Hulk is not signet yet is beyond belief, especially when there are guys like Perez at McLaren.

Since they (Mc) seem to be stupid enough and keeping Perez (instead of Hulk), WTF is Lotus waiting for? That guy deserves a good seat.

P.S. Am I alone thinking Hamilton should've tried the age old Porsche mantra: "slow in, fast out" in T1?

Land Jet

Kimi said he hasn't been paid by Lotus so why would Hulkenburg want to get into a situation like that. It's nice to have a good seat, but nicer to have millions of $$$.

Congrats to Seb for another great drive, Kimi too. Makes me happy to see Hamilton behind Hulkenburg.

the flyin' scotsman

Seb/RB are indeed in a class of there own.....start the race and drive away.

My man Kimi does it again, starting way down the grid and drives around most of the competition to finish 2nd despite his team and team mate doing there utmost to get RoGro in front.

What a race for Merc; Hammy is telling the team his tyres are done but they tell him to stay out and when Rosberg passes the front wing falls off so he pits and leaves Hammy out for another 'slow' lap........Brawn is seen on the pit wall shaking his head in dismay.

Ferrari has Massa do the suicide dive on the first lap, didn't work out to good. Alonso tries but the Hulk stops his progress.

Eventual great battle with Hammy, Alonso and the Hulk but the green man stands tall........some big team needs this guy.

So happy to see Webbo get out the burning RB after the sideswipe from Sutil who was taking Massa lessons.

Bring on Japan

Nizer

Another great race for Kimi and Lotus. A shame these guys lack funding; would hate to lose Lotus in F1.
