Re: Alonso vs. Vettel over before it started. :(

I cant believe Alonso's bad luck in the last 5 +/- years. This race is the nail in his coffin for 2013 is you ask me. I see this very race the deciding factor of the championship, Vettel getting his 4th while Alonso missing out by less than 25 points. Probably less than 10 points. It is possible we...

Re: Did Hamilton Make the right decision to move to Mercedes

Still too early too tell. While its undeniable at the moment the Mercedes car is faster, there were periods in the early season last year were the Merc was quicker than the Macca yet they still ended up 5th to McLaren's 3rd. We do not know yet if Mercedes are on a genuine climb and if McLaren are in...

Re: Nico vs Sebastian

Personally I would rather that everyone just races and we don't have team orders full stop.

But a lot of people who are crying foul of what Seb did today are the same people who patted Mark Webber on the back for disobeying team orders in Silverstone 2011.

Aside from an annoying finish though, promising signs from McLaren. Hopefully they won't have lost too much too soon and will be able to get bac...
