Oh Ben just pissed himself again, I hope he remembers to breath a bit. His commentating style would be brilliant.....if we were watching the fecking grand national
This is far from a boring race now
Don't know about others but I've enjoyed this race.
This has been a great race, they have all been so close together
I have to say that Vettel has run a cracking race so far, after his dreadful start
I agree cracking race
This is so close...should be a great final laps, and maybe some excellent racing moves.
Oh Kimi 
Webber 
too bad fore Kimi.
too bad fore Kimi.
Hamilton ovetakes webber
What the feck happened there
Lots of passes happening in the past minute, kimi falling back quick though now his tyres are gone completely

Kimi need to get new rubber
Falls from second to tenth in no time at all
Same could happen to vettel
Vettel holding button back
Button passes Vettel with ease
I hate DRS
JB goes past vettel, Hamilton could pass him now for 3rd
Now time for hamilton to catch up...
Hamilton overtakes vettel
nice move by Lewis
Hamilton passes vettel, I hope webber passes him now
Hamilton weaving, surely not
Button a second a lap faster than Rosberg ,
well raced on that stretch.
Webber passes vettel
The only reason Rosberg will win this is because of McLaren's feck up. Button is incredibly fast and Rosberg needed to do 20+ laps.
Great race by nico.
What an excellent race to watch , well done Rosberg cracking race.
Maybe the best race of the season so far

Well done to nico, great win. Fantastic grand prix too.
Ben Edwards off to get a clean change of underwear now methinks

Thats bollocks, jenson would've been in with a shout but it wouldn't be a gimme.
Second half of the race was very entertaining, well driven by Nico throughout and some nice lower formula style racing from the pack behind him for the last 15 or so laps.
I still really dislike DRS though.

Ben just confirming that it is indeed the silver arrows now, not brawn......thanks Ben
He's just annoyed Nico beat Michael to the win for Merc
mmm not sure I agree with that Rosberg was faster for most of the race , the only reason Button was faster at the end was Rosberg did not need to push the car
Not really. Michael was out of this race due to the error of team member, not himself. He also has 92 race wins so i'm sure he'll lose alot of sleep.
Button was 7.5 seconds ahead and Rosberg had to do 22 laps on his hard tyres. 13 seconds with 17 laps left and he'd have been easily in with a shout.
What I am happy about is that Mercedes now have a car that can win.
watching Sch pitstop , you can see the guy at the back is gutted when the car was realised
Great win for Rosberg, Mercedes clearly likes the races a bit cooler and they have got on top of the tyre issues a bit.
McLaren yet again beat themselves before trying to beat anyone else, a team that can build race winning cars but obviously have an absolute feckwit in charge of strategy and thats before talking about pitstop feck ups.

I don't think Buttons strategy was bad at all, just unlucky.
