The F1 Thread 2012 Season

Why do Sky Sports keep saying sixth winner of the season? We had seven in the first seven races ffs :lol:
 
2 Safety Car's, as well as inept driving from Webber and Hamilton's retirement all helped, a lot.

I know. I'm a Ferrari fan (was transfixed for those past few laps) but when I take a step back it's just humorous. Vettel stacked so much against himself and yet events still conspired in his favour. :lol:

Cracking racing from Kimi, you're allowed to be as apathetic as he is when you get results like that.
 
Good race from Raikonnen. Unlucky for him he's not closer to the top two.
 
Poor Alonso is gutted at seeing Seb up there with him. Not engaging in the banter at all.
 
I know Vettel is a nice guy off the track, but I get the impression that Alonso is an arse on and off the track.

I just get the impression he's quite competitive. Probably a fairly decent person who's just very, very competitive.
 
great job by Kimi.

awful job by McLaren for Lewis.

Vettel the luckiest man on earth inherits about 10 places due to crashes/dnf's and safety cars despite being awful early on.
 
you may be right.

Don't know why it is but I just kind of like Alonso and I'm not a massive fan of Vettel. I mainly don't like Vettel that much because of how dominant he is, but I don't know why I like Alonso when you see what he's like sometimes. Probably feel for him because most don't like him and overall he's been a better driver than Vettel this season, but just in a worse car.
 
When all is said, though, Alonso has taken points off Vettel.

True, but when Alonso saw Vettel's starting position he would've probably seen it as a chance to take a lot more than 3 points off him.
