Where the feck is Alonso getting this speed from 
Shame the Championships are already over.
Still nice to see he is human though
Where the feck is Alonso getting this speed from
The Ferrari has had good race pace for ages now, I don't know why everyone always rights them off.
You say that like he made a mistake?
Massa.
Something loose flapping on the floor of webbers car?
Well he kinda did, he ran wide on the kerb. It's a huge penalty for such a small error though.
Well it's nice for the rest of us to see that he is not invincible basically and that he can still suffer from something like a puncture
That's pretty much the normal line, though, they all ran on the kerb
Not on the first lap with low pressures though, Vettel was widest of everyone.
Why is everyone onto Vettel as if he just lost the championship on the last lap?
I really don't think it was wide enough to have caused a puncture.
Anyway... DRS is shit, Brundle is saying 'it's working', but it's not, it's just creating two passes in succession putting the cars back where they started as the zones are one after the other, so the end result is the cars back where they were, pointless in the extreme.
DRS here is wank, utter wank!
I agree , I just dont like DRS
Without the DRS here you wouldn't see any overtaking anyway.
Button has a problem
Exactly, DRS may be shit but no DRS is even worse.
If the drivers had some nouse they'd just get super close and not pass in the first DRS zone and then use the second one to actually pass so they can't be retaken
I can see you point
KERS failure for button
Button has a KERS fault being asked to reboot the system
Webber is a fecking pussy on the brakes
If webber fails to pass button here I will be shocked
excellent pit stops by McLaren
Webber held in the pits
Webber screwed
Either button has KERS back or massa is just being shit slow as usual
Di resta trying to one stop this one
If it works , should have a good finishing place
Buttons KERS still not working meaning massa is just being shit slow
Maldonado is brilliant
Sutil is going well, Di Resta we have no idea given his strategy.
Button is going to be picked off easily by these two
I am bored watching this
Massa making a mess of that corner
Yeah standard Abu Dhabi GP, they need to make changes here.
Actually looks like massa and webber squabbling might play into buttons hands
