Well, who would have thought it, Vettel under the pump and produces ... a little better than Massa, and only with the help of his crew. Lacklustre is a good word Dembo, ordinary would be mine or perhaps average. Certainly didn't see anything 'exceptional, or talented' from him today that is for sure, I did see plenty of errors however. But boy was the racing great from the top 3 boys, they did fantastic ... Webber, Hamilton and though I hate to say it Alonso too ... great driving by those three, shame about JB's hydraulic issue ... I reckon he would have had 5th quite possibly?

Good race today, thoroughly enjoyed it.

To be fair to Sebastian, he seems to have gone inside himself a little, maybe consolidating his lead, I think JB did something similar mid season when Brawn were the class of the field, and then came on strong towards the end of the season ... hope Vettel does this too, props to him if he can and does.

 

Yeh, I certainly think JB could have got 5th, possibly even 4th with the pace of the McLaren's this weekend. Although JB never looked totally comfortable with the car this weekend, especially compared to LH. Cracking racing though, fantastic.

 

exciting race to watch.
interesting to see Vettel struggling when he's not P1 - maybe this is the key to beat him.

 

Yeh Vettel seems to have struggled over the past 2 races with overtaking when not starting from the front. This has somewhat lowered my thoughts about his driving, but in saying that, he is still 70odd points ahead so it doesn't really matter that the past 2 races have been poor. Maybe he is going through a Hamilton phase, haha!

 

I did laugh when Hamilton went round the outside of Alonso on turn 2 like he was stationary. Yet when Alonso tried the same move on Webber a couple of laps earlier he couldn't do it

Pleased for Hamilton, and my suspicions about Vettel's race craft and inability to overtake have been confirmed. Button was unlucky with the car, but he clearly didn't fancy it all weekend. After quali he looked really down, no doubt because Lewis had just stuck it on the front row.

 

The difference between Button and Hamilton as far as I can see is that Button needs the car to be just right under him otherwise he can't extract the performance.
Hamilton seems to be able to go fast even if the car insn't optimally set up.

Be interesting to see what happens if Vettel doesn't qualify on the front row for the next few GPs. Has he ever won from anywhere except the front row ?

 

it should be warmer in Hungary.. so let's see if it is normal serviced resumed for the Red Bulls,

When you are trouncing everybody, an off race can always look worse than it actually is.. Vettel has already won more races in 2011 than he did in his championship season - and we are only just over half way through.

I thought performance of the day was Sutil.. beating Rosberg and Schumi was a big deal for a small team.

 

I hope they do, it would be nice to see Hamilton kicked in the mouth and shut up.

 

I think he's turned a corner compared with only a few races ago and is letting his driving do the talking.

Did you see him take Alonso around the outside in turn 2 ?

It'd be nice to see your boy pull off some moves like that.

 

I saw him take Alonso round turn 2. TBH, he should consider himself lucky.

What Hammy did to Webber was b0ll0cks tbh. Webber was ahead and Hamilton drove into him.

This track position thing is interesting and Hamilton thinks that simply by driving up the inside, people whould jump out of your way.

Is it any wonder the Stewards are constantly on his case?
