    That's fúcking bullshít. You can't drive a lad onto the grass. This shít has to stop on the stat.

    Dunno if they'll give a penalty but they certainly could.

    I think they should. Fair enough give him a squeeze, but he forced Button onto the grass.

    The double-movement is irrelevant. Schumacher has done aggressive moves like that (Italy this year, Hungary last year) that weren't as blocky as that and gets slated.

    Button's got very little pace at the start of this race. Gonna be a while til we see how the tyres are going.

    I'm glad Brundle at least acknowledged that tweet.


    Hamilton's already blown his tyres.

    Silly from Hamilton there, cost Button nearly a second then blocked the Ferrari so he'd give the team enough time to get the tyres out.

    EDIT: I stand corrected. :)

    I really hope McLaren don't react to that, Button's still quick enough on this set of tyres and can clear traffic if he stays out.

    EDIT: Actually the tyres just went on that lap.

    They should re-activate the DRS more quickly after restarts.

    Alfonso finding some nice pace now, should be between him and Button.

    This is gonna end up pretty close in the end. Depends on how well the top 3 can use and look after the medium tyres.

    Alonso to win it, Button's got nothing on these tyres.

    I'd love it, just love it, if Button won the title next year. He's my new favourite driver after his performances this year, alongside Rosberg.

    Aye, obviously in a bad car it's heard to even compare drivers so while Rosberg is ahead of Schumacher in the championshop I'd have to say that overall this season I'd have said Schumacher is performing better than Rosberg. Think Merc have signed a coupla new people for the design team. I've said before there something fundamentally wrong with in-season development in that team (right from BAR through Honda, Brawn and now Mercedes) so hopefully that'll be sorted for next year.

    Fcuksake BBC. Was it just here or was there a half dozen or so AV glitches during the race? Very annoying.
