This is good for Hamilton as he'll have DRS on the restart. Unless Vettel has a superb start.

ok why the heck are restarts so stupid in F1 compared to indycar or nascar for example? They never seem to be packed up at the front.

Because IndyCar doesn't allow them to start accelerating until the green flag, F1 does. IndyCar also does double file which leads to hilarity and stupidity.
