F1 2011

Agree with all the sentiments above,Vettel has amazing pace but dosen't seem to be able to pull off amazing overtakes on his rivals when he really needs to get the job done.

Alonso,Hamilton,Button have all proved they can do just that.

Also agree McLaren are really ****ing up 2 of the best drivers out there,sad to see.Be great to have Ferrari,Red Bull and McLaren really neck and neck in terms of pace and let the drivers do their stuff.

Good win for Alonso,no way Ferrari will want to revert to the old rules after that today

Seb's just got the fastest lap round the Top Gear track in the old reasonably priced car too

Came across really well as well I thought. Seemed like a nice fella

Yeah seems like a decent lad, His accent impressions were terrible though

A supreme drive by Lewis today, some amazing overtakes again today, unsurprisingly none of them by Vettel again, only managed to pass Massa in the pits on the final lap, if he's ever going to be classed as a great world champion he needs to take a page out of Hamilton's overtaking book

Great drive.

Also a great Ride by Casey Stoner in the moto Gp, a sublime passing move in the mold of Lewis Hamilton during the German Gp, round the outside.

These guys are soooooo talented, they put their machines in places to overtake that just take your breath away.

Stoner had his Honda almost horizontal at times he was leaning it over that far, magnificent stuff.

Best part of the F1 was Hamilton passing Webber right after he had just been passed himself

Dont know what was up with Vettel though, not saying i expected him to win (personally i think Hamilton and Alonso are better drivers) but with the Red Bull car struggling to pass Massa, albeit he drove well, it was a poor drive by Vettel's standard.

Hamilton doesn't like to be passed does he ! Such an aggressive driver and great to watch although it does cost him from time to time.

Hungary this weekend will be interesting, we'll see if the pressure is starting to get to Vettel as I don't think he's in the same class as Hamilton or (said begrudgingly) Alonso, people forget he won last years championship on the last race and had never actually lead it until then.

That was a great overtake no doubt, catching the slip stream and winging it past Webber between him and the pit wall.

But i just loved how he smashed Webber wide when Webber tried to overtake on the outside after the pit, he then had the audacity to overtake Alonso in exactly the same place and on the outside the very next lap i think it was, brilliant.

Hamilton was almost hysterical after taking the chequered flag, he was on the radio laughing and thanking his team.....the adrenaline was flowing...he was buzzin!

German GP in 90 seconds....vroom vroom beep beep!

It's a pity Vettel won so many early on, i think he's safe for the title now, unless one of Hamilton or Alonso wins loads, which is'nt impossible if either team gets their car in shape in the way Red Bull did at the start.

Biggest worry is, and imo it's the likleyhood, is that they'll both win a few races from now till the end of the season, and neither will be able to catch Vettel, who will also no doubt still win races too.

Wish the season was just starting now.

not happy with this!

it's going to be like when F1 was on ITV, ****ing adverts during the race which is very annoying!

Might be a chance to get old Gray and Keys back for commentary though

[Shaggy]

Sky claim there will be no ads during the races.

Not that I give a flying ****!

Murdoch an Bernie were in discussions about him investing in F1. Wonder if this is related.
