The F1 Thread 2011 Season

Hamilton was in danger of starting at the back before the start of the race. His car was struggling to start in the pits and the pit crew got the car ready with 30 seconds to spare. Brilliant drive from Hamilton and Webber.
 
Best race in years!

Agreed - Great race.

Little movement in Drivers championship on Betfair - Would have thought Hamilton would have come in more. Betting seems to be that it was a race which Vettel lost instead of Hamilton winning
 
I dislike Hamilton but I'm happy he won. It's about time someone other than Vettel won a race!
 
Just when you think F1 might become predictable it produces a fantastic race. Superb by everyone in the Top 6 today, great fun.
 
Best grandprix race for a bloody long time, sensational!

Congrats to Hamilton for a great drive and stunning from Webber as well.
 
:lol: I still can't believe Button stopped at the Red Bull garage. That was the first time I have ever seen that happen.

Very unsporting of them not to do the job. :)
 
Well done to the Red Bull mechanic making a tool of himself on the forum.
 
? What happened there?

Basically said McLaren were cheating by stopping Button in Vettel's pitbox and did it on purpose. He could have been joking but if he was he has the worst comical timing and delivery in the world.

:lol: Yes, McLaren were cheating by giving Vettel the lead. What a tit. I think Button should have come to a complete stop just so Vettel had to do the same, then Button could have come out 1st again.
 
Belting race, absolutely cracking watch. We all said it on here last season, the tyres were too good to make a race without refuelling work. Seems they've hit precisely the right level, meaning there's a range of tactics available, making for really interesting racing. Some may slate the two stoppers, but Vettel was only a few laps away from making it work, wasn't an awful lot in it

Button is a tool! At least he saw the funny side
 
What a grand prix, Hamilton & Webber made that very entertaining. I thought Vettel would run away with it yesterday, how wrong was i? Some of Hamilton's overtaking was quality.
 
If Hamilton has a good season, I think I'll have this wrapped up for a second year judging by the teams at the top

It was the top 10 that deserve the credit for a great entertaining race, not just Webber and Hamilton.
