Vettel out-Kiming Kimi.

Vettel just said 'feck'. Apology issued.
I expect Kimi to say cnut now.
Vettel throws in a feck for good measure
Cheeky Vettel! Coulthard looks pissed!
Ah Vettel. Manages to get a podium to maintain a 10 point lead.
You sensed this was Alonso's big opportunity to get some big points back instead he's got only 3. Reckon this might be the result that secures Vettel his 3rd championship.

Really feel for Alonso, just not happening for him all season, despite some sensational driving.
Alonso will be gutted that Vettel finished on the podium.
Even with all his luck, it was a good race from The Finger.
feck me. Eric Boullier has some yellow teeth.
Kimi's radio.
Just heard Kimi's radio.Hamilton shaking his head as he comes to a stop. How pissed off he must be.
He should be. I reckon this has been one of his best seasons in F1 but Mclaren have let him down badly on a lot of occasions.
Happy Hardcore?
What are you talking about Humphries?

he should have done really, when Alonso watches this back he will spit at Vettel's luck.
Just watched it on sky plus. Great race even if Vettel got all the luck
Having never liked Kimi before, I'm developing a liking for the psychopath.
good to see Kimi get the win. Got to give Vettle credit for getting on the podium from where he started even if he did get a bit of luck during the race.
Hamilton must be over this season, seems every time it looks like things are going well for him the car self destructs.

He is brilliant, I used to think he was a moany moody bastard. But then I realised its just Kimi.
The BBC received 21 complaints from the public regarding the swearing. Pathetic.
The 21 should just get a life, did they have nothing better to do than, take time out to ring the BBC about swearing.
Maybe they did not even watch it, and rang up because they read about it in the Mail.
I see Whitmarsh is talking shit again.
YOu mean this?

I read in it that Lewis only went to Mercedes because they offered him more money, did he really go for more money? I cant see it .
Mercedes must of told Lewis that they had something up there sleeve, that would make there car something more than it is now.
Maybe I am wrong but there cars has they are now, Lewis has no chance of even getting close to winning the Championship next season.
Yes I mean that.
I don't like how Whitmarsh is somehow trying to deflect valid reasoning as to why Lewis would leave, it comes across as "It can't possibly be McLaren's fault".
How about you respect the decision Martin and wish him all the best? Is that so hard?

That last bit reads funny, as if there's words missing, but overall that doesn't sound like he's saying he only went for the money.
I think the primary reasons he's leaving are frustration with McLaren and their inability to build a car that is fast and reliable at the same time, combined with the HUGE financial benefit of being able to sign personal sponsorship deals.
At the end of the day, if you don't feel like your going to win the WDC with McLaren, and you can earn a fecktonne more money driving for another team, then wouldn't you make the move?
As an aside, I would doubt Whitmarsh is correct when he says they offered him more than any other driver is being paid - I reckon Alonso is being very well paid by Ferrari (do Marlboro still pay their drivers?)
Exactly and I reckon its the Alonso effect too. Hamilton probably saw that Alonso left McLaren for a poorer team but got far more credit from both his peers and the media by performing at a level everyone knows he is capable of and ended back up in a title battling car anyway.
He can answer the doubters that say the only reason he is successful is because of being on the McLaren tit whilst also making significant money in both personal endorsments which McLaren don't allow and base salary from a manufacturer based team.
I think Santander pay a big portion of Alonso's salary.

Comes across as a Wenger/Hill-Wood-type statement; half-delusion, half-smokescreen.
Ah yea, of course. I was thinking back to Raikkonen's days with them when Marlboro were reported to be meeting the cost of his apparent £50m a year salary. Mental.
Just carried on reading that BBC article, if this quote from Whitmarsh:
Is accurate then feck me, what a wanker.
Is accurate then feck me, what a wanker.
Hard to believe Hamilton still has 2 races left with them with comments like that, its anti-man management.
Well those comments aren't nice.
Just wait till the season is over. We will get "betrayed" comments as well
I've never liked Whitmarsh, I've always thought he was a bit of a weasel, but I wouldn't have expected him to come out with something like that publicly.
