Glad this Alonso bastard didnt win. I always hated him and now even more. What did Petrov do exactly? Nothing he drove in a clean manner. I'm sad for Webber he was clearly the RB second driver he deserved the championship BTW. Happy for Vettel too. I've always liked him he seems like a very good guy down to earth etc.....not like an other german driver that didn't finish the race today(Michael) who IMO has to go.
Looking back at the youtube link right above Vitaly should have hit Alonso car or just park on the grass get out and slap the guy. This Alonso guy rubs me the wrong way, just like Michael.

According to Russel Peters, this means "Do you want to eat?"...

What a great race, no one could predict it would end like this. FA and Webber must have destroyed their tires for them to pit so soon with out a proper gap. Either way it was a huge mistake. Vettel on the other hand was flawless, well deserved championship. Both McLarens had a good race, classic Jensen race by making his tires last. Too bad for LH but we all knew his chances were minimal. Great end to a great seaon!

They don't get paid by RBR but Renault. Thus they are wearing Renault uniform instead.

Renault supplies the engine for RedBull. These guys had Renault white shirt(motorist) while the team sports yellow shirts.

Great race for Vettel, though he was not my favorite to win, he truly deserved it. If you consider he lost out on 75 sure points throughout the year and should have clinched it a few races ago.
Im also very glad to see the world champion do it with a WIN, not squeek into the last race in barely enough position way down the grid to win the championship. Vettel won it in true champion fashion by dominating the whole race weekend, trully well deserved. Now the boring offseason comes, here's hoping to a nice season next year as well. Beware, Schumi World Champ 2011!!!!

Kudos to Vettel and Red Bull. The best team and best driver won. The way it should be. No bullshit team orders, no taking advantage of a loophole in the regs. Just an excellent car design and a superb driver. Well done.
Alonso is a seriously poor sportsman. Very disappointed in his actions after the race. Not the mark of a champion.

I almost forgot...a big Congratulations to Christian Horner. At first i doubted his management skill and damage control after the Turkish incident and Silverstone drama.
Then many media suggested he should favor one driver after Korea. However, he stick with what he said, no team orders, just let them race. a big bow and respect to CH!!!

As far as Petrov, he was fighting for his F1 career, with no contract for 2011 before the last race, so he'd have been nuts to let the cheater thru. He did absolutely nothing wrong. If FA gave him the finger, what a freaking a-hole and sore loser . What a race . Wasn't expecting SV to win with FA in 3rd after the crucial first few turns, to be honest, but the kid earned it. He matured a lot in the last few races. He was even smilng after losing his engine in Korea. You have to be mentally pretty tough not to let something like that make you lose your cool. Well deserved IMO. Hey, does he get a special bonus or something for winning? He must be making pretty good money already, but definitely should get better after being a champion, I'd assume, right? What a privilege doing what you love, traveling all over the freaking world, and making millions in the process. I'd gladly do it for $200K a year . Have a good one folks.

And he did it very well indeed! Alonso was just off the pace for whatever reason and for him to expect anyone but Massa to just move over for him is completely insane.
He needs to step it up a bit next year because it sure sounded like the team was getting impatient and had no idea why he couldn't get past Petrov. Great podium by the way, 2008, 2009 & 2010 champions all together. Congrats to Vettel! |

Indeed. That was exactly my point. Remember how much flack Horner caught with the cheater crowd for not giving those orders? He'd be kicking himself in the a$$ silly now. That kind of crap doesn't belong on ANY sport. Hey man, thanks again for all your contributions to this forum . Have a great day.
