ERS issue, lost 160bhp.

Well that's a tad narrow sighted of the FI official trying to pin all the blame on Felipe. Can't agree there at all. Felipe obviously had to take a go at it. Surely he would not be expecting Sergio to jink left at the last second right in the braking zone.

First career wins...

No clue why everybody is surprised Massa didn't win, apart from crashing. He has been historically crap in passing. How many races did he win not from pole position? 1? 2?

BBC just showed Alonso's OnBoard with Button passing him & Nico.

Alonso dived up the inside of Nico at the hairpin, Ran wide & took Nico a bit wide as well which allowed Button to pass him & gave Button a run on Nico down the straght.

I'll repeat what I've been saying for the past 5 years.....what Felipe Massa's still doing in Formula 1?

First, did you guys see that he had at least more than five chances to position his car inside Vettel, as he had a faster car, and pass. Did he pass? No.

Second, a Formula 1 car in hands of Massa is a lethal weapon!!! Whenever he saw Vettel overtaking Perez in the first opportunity, he went on dispair and tried to pass like a kamikaze.....my goodness!!!

When FINALLY Williams makes a good car, it goes in hands of people who doesn't know what they're doing!!! If you had this car in hands of other drivers, I'm sure Williams would have won its first race this year or at least get a podium!

RSC's first win was at Imola iirc.

yep

Was there any explanation for Kamui's retirement?

The broken wheel was on the wrong side to have been slapped against the Wall of Champions.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Massa described as rather miffed.

To avoid FOM's claws, here is a Vine of a helicopter shot of Perez moving in the braking zone.

Massa also moves a bit to the right at the last moment. GP2 move of Perez

The true farce today is Williams.
They could have won that race so easily, but they:
-fucked up Massa's first stop (7 seconds)
-brought him in a second time , maybe it would have been worth to risk it as Rosberg and Perez would have hold the others up
-crashed

But also, Vettel defended really well to Massa being on fresher tires.
It's just.. Put Hamilton, Vettel or Alonso in that car and they could have won

All clear

This is also one of the mysteries for me. How Williams keep managing to throw away every chance for a good position. Ok, having Felipe and Bottas doesn't really help them. Massa doesn't manage to get past a Red Bull on the straight, Bottas keeps making silly mistakes and never gets his stuff together. Always collects a punture or locks up a tire very badly or something else. But apart from them, the team management reminds me a bit of McLaren during Lewis' years. *ucking up pitstops, making the weirdest strategy calls, etc. It just makes me sad for Frank. I love this old man and have a deep respect for what he achieved, but his team can't live up to the standards...

Mags was rather anonymous during the race.

Massa's now been transferred to hospital for a CT scan.

He was. I assume he must have gotten stuck behind someone after his first pitstop because he was running around with Jenson and the FIF1s before that.

And that was Perez fault. Sorry.
