Yes I was still happy with it. Some good racing behind Vettel. Im proud of him though and he is making history. He is on fire for now. Next year will be great as we reset with the new formula!

Nearly 30 seconds ahead after 13 laps. Unbelievable. I get the feeling that Red Bull has discovered a new strategy based on the India race. Start with softs and just rip the crap out of them so that the gap is so huge that nobody can catch him.
I sometimes wonder if Seb is going to get so far ahead that his focus slips. Pretty amazing to see.
How 'bout Kimi?

He does has the skill to master the car AND the tires, which the latter is very important for the race.

He is... on his own class at the moment.

I won't worry about his concentration, he has a habit that is keeps making fastest lap til the end, the good is he pushes til the end.. the bad is this is not what the engineer and team principal like to see strategically.

Raikkonen...? He retired after the first corner after being tipped by a Caterham.... :icon14:

Yeah. I know about Kimi. The end-of-the-season drama unfolds again. He left the scene pretty quickly. Guess I wouldn't be real big on sticking around when my employer doesn't want to pay me.

The news is Lotus and his management have concluded an agreement thus he will attend the last few races.

I'm guessing no one here is attending the USGP?

alcheng 11-08-2013 11:15 AM

JAR's not going?

DLSTR 11-08-2013 12:09 PM

He is not. I'm trying to find someone attending Saturday. That's the only day I won't have a ticket for and Red Bull is doing autographs. :( I want to meet Mark.

Kimi round 2 begins! BBC Sport - Lotus's Kimi Raikkonen has Ferrari seat fitted for next season
