Well now I'm just hoping Vettel's car breaks because he'll win for sure otherwise.

I don't get the criticism on Webber. It is pretty obvious team order strategy from Red Bull right from the start.

There was overtaking. There was no DRS. Do you watch things before complaining?


Not as much as there would be without a massive yellow flag zone down the straight...many drivers could've made a pass but didn't

Don't know where I mentioned DRS but thanks for trying to bring that up yet again...

For what its worth, the Di Resta/Schumacher battle proved they have it just right today, didn't allow Paul to zoom right past but got him alongside.

Thread'll still be full of DRS whining after the race tho.

Yes, because there're no stationary ones to look for pit speed limits.

So every week, Red Bull order him to screw up the start? You're funny.

Webber always bogs down 10 metres after the start. I fail to understand why he hasn't sorted his starts after all these years.

Webber didn't screw up the start. In the top 8, on every row they swapped positions

yeah because webber fucks up his start on purpose everytime^^
plus there's no team order needed really when you have a driver that's being outclassed by his team mate every race

I'd love to see a graph of how many positions Webber has won and lost in the starts. Then see someone try and say it's a Red Bull conspiracy.

Webber needs to get the starts sorted or he'll never win a title. You can't give away postions every weekend.

Webber hasn't had a good start for the last two years, or at least he had very much bad ones. Today wasn't that bad but I'm wondering why he and the team hasn't sorted out the problem.
