Re: Pathetic defending from Rosberg
I'd have easily given Rosberg the benefit if it was just the one incident with Hamilton but then he did it twice after - there's defending and there's not leaving any room and Rosberg did the latter in my view. The Hamilton incident could go either way taken on it's own - yes, Lewis DID go outside t...

Re: Racecraft - should vettel have left it till the end ?
As AlienTurnedHuman has already said he would have passed Raikkonen almost by default he (Raikkonen) had nothing left in those tyres which was a shame.
Thing is, he did remarkably well to finish where he did - he owes the guys on the pit wall a pint of course but he also did the business himself.

Re: Kimi Raikkonen's Q1 performance
It was just a misjudgement he was driving well enough he didn't look like a driver who had been out of F1 for a few years.
Sure, Grosjean has also been out of F1 and did very well in the same car but Grosjean has been driving open wheel not rallying and NASCAR - and he didn't mess up Q1.
