Now that Mercedes has race-winning pace, Schumi is not going to put up with BS mistakes for very long... Great win for Nico. Proof that genetics do play a part.

Again, what an amazing season. I'm just glad JB is consistent. Many times, consistency = championships. At this point, I wouldn't mind seeing JB pick up his second title.

Button could've won. Dammit. Well done to Rosberg. Happy Mercedes finally has a race winning car. The race was very tight. This will be a good season.

EDIT: very happy to see Webber pass Vettel.

This weekend is going to be a wake up call for Vettel.

He got snubbed in qualifying and in the race.

That blown diffuser made him complacent, now he doesn't have that advantage, and his real colors will show soon.

He couldn't. Whitmarsh said post-race that there was too much time between them and that Nico was not slowing down at all.

It's going to be a tough year for McLaren.

Indeed. Lewis once said that Vettel is Nigel Mansel 2.0. I now see what he means.

I was really disappointed Kimi+Alonso didn't finish higher up on the grid; Lotus employed the 2-tire strategy and it didn't work so well for Kimi. He lost 10 positions in one lap lol because of his degraded tires. Alonso just couldn't make it through all that tight traffic in the slow pos f2012...sigh annd he doesn't sound too confident going into Bahrain either.

I'm still rooting for them both though, the race to the championship is going to be very, very tight this year...3 races, 3 separate winners lol, but Mclaren consistently getting to podium so they're really looking strong.
