Button over a second slower than Hamilton. Incredible.
Formation lap is just about to be completed. The conditions are a lot more different than what they were for qualifying.
Hamilton leads! Alonso ahead of Vettel I think.
Alonso goes wide at the start of the second lap, Vettel back up to third.
Alonso takes third back!
Vettel locked up on the grass. Back on but being chased by Rosberg and Massa now.
Heidfeld has crashed out. Buemi squashed him in to the advertising hoardings.
Webber and Hamilton going at it. :lol:
Alonso tried to pass Webber, Webber tried to pass Hamilton. :haha:
That was brilliant.
This is fantastic!
Can't remember the last time we had a 3-way scrap for the lead.
Webber is back in the lead! I thought Massa was going to go steaming in to Alonso. :lol:
Vettel is having a shocker.
Schumacher went wide and span out. He's back on track now.
Chandhok span out. :bow:
Hamilton goes back ahead of Webber on the second round of pitstops. Then they have a scrap near the beginning of the following lap. :lol:
Alonso took the lead after pitting, then Hamilton takes the lead back!
Button is up to sixth ahead of Rosberg.
Now Button has to retire - a hydraulics problem.
Liuzzi has retired.
Vettel outpits Massa! Vettel is in to fourth on the last lap.
Hamilton wins, congrats to him. Alonso second, Webber third. Vettel fourth and Massa fifth.
Great race. Hamilton has been outstanding all weekend.
today just showed why hamilton is by far the best driver on the grid. stunning drive, some his overtakes, esp his one on alonso were amazing.
shows also how overated vettel is, put him in a car thats quick and on pole with no traffic in front he wins, put him in car with traffic in front he wont win.
Vettel has proved to be a very quick driver, but not a great racer.
I don't understand why we can't praise one without discrediting the other. Last year you were laughing at Vettel for getting pole and not often seeing it through (fairly so) - winning from pole has mainly what he has done this season (but not solely) and yet you now use that as a marker of his inferior ability? Strange.
The Red Bull car is clearly not that fast when it comes to straight line speed anyway in races. McClaren's is and to be fair the reverse is true in corners.

Sky will be showing F1 next season. Highlights only I hope.
Now I've seen the full article. So BBC will only show half the races now. :doh: Sky will show them all.

Don't care about F1 but it sounds like another shocker from the Beeb.
They're racking them up.
You can usually put it down to Sky just stomping on the smaller channels, but the BBC is one of the few corporations that should still be able to stand up to them.
The Beeb. :rose:
I'm gonna hurt the BBC's director general.
:threaten:
BBC's programme for qualifying starts in a few minutes. The build-up should be interesting and I hope Martin Brundle gets hold of Ecclestone at some point, he was not best pleased with the tv rights deal. Neither was Martin Whitmarsh although he tried to be as non-committal as possible.
Q3 on soon, this could be any of the front six getting pole. :popcorn:
It's pouring it down at the moment apparently. :popcorn:
Formation lap under way, everybody is on intermediate tyres.
Here we go :popcorn:
