I'm no fan of Webber but I hope the square jawed Aussie outscores Vettel for the rest of the season.  Quite how Vettel can't see how he was at fault for his off yesterday is beyond most people.
Vettel is quick but I've yet to see any race craft from him.

I'm enjoying this season. Its fairly open to more than two drivers and two teams.

As for yesterdays incident. It was Webbers fault because he didnt become intangible when Vettel decided to turn into him. Its a fucking disgrace.

Can't believe how the team seem to be backing Vettel in that crash, unless of course Webber was told to back off and let Vettel through.

I've found this season to be boring. I just tend to nod off in the middle of the race.

And it's go, go, go... go to sleep again.

And it really looks like McLaren and Hamilton have fucked this up good and proper first with using the wrong tyres and now with an unsave release in the pits when they changed the tyres.

A much better race but what the hell is going on with the stewards (not penalising Massa or Liuzzi or Hamilton).

Fun and games with the tyres though nobody apart from Webber seem to have any tyres left.

Schumacher proves he's still a total ******.

Great race, breathtaking at first. Another British 1-2, come on McLaren, go on and win it now.

Great race yesterday, and full of incident. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Now that Maclaren are getting their shit together it my not be a Red Bull walkover after all.

And, I agree with Ian,  Schumacher is becoming a menace and a liability and needs a bloody bollocking from the F1 masters or even a ban. He is obviously not in the most effective car, but he is trying to protect his old reputation and because he doesn't have the tools (car or ability any more) he is just bloody dangerous..

Looks like you spoke too soon on that one Mr Sandman!

McLarens tyre gamble was clearly not much of a gamble, as the circuit rubbered in the Red Bulls were blown away & as for an unsafe release it was perfectly safe, save the fact Lewis got a load of wheel spin getting away which put him alongside Alonso instead of ahead.

As for Schumacher he should never have returned, he was a legend & now he's turned into a laughing stock on a par with his half wit brother.

Jon/folks, why would you say that the McLarens have so quickly over taken (no pun intended) Red Bull? Can it be sustained?

it seems to me that they cam maintain it, and will get better ian.
I think Maclaren are notoriously slow at implementing major changes quickly. Look at last season with KERS and the double diffuser. They were miles behind Brawn to start with, and eventually got their act together and were much better in the second half of the season.
Personally, I hope they continue to improve this year and give us another F1 champion.

I think the car was a compromise at the season start, :2 very different drivers, 2 very different styles. Also McLaren have never taken risks with technology or enhancements or strategy for that matter so the car has taken a bit longer to develop.  Both drivers seem to be getting the best from their cars, Lewis seems to be able to wring it's neck at every opportunity & yet it suits Jensons smoother style as well.

I think Silverstone will be key which is great.

Some accident there for Webber.

He's a lucky, lucky boy.
