In a period where both STR guys are under pressure, Alguersuari was fantastic today

No DRS at all and I'm satisfied :D It's always the same discussion. He can use DRS now but he can't pass or that was a DRS move or DRS didn't help him either. But the best is his DRS isn't working he can't overtake now. I mean drivers used to overtake without DRS years ago so there should be a problem especially with this tires.

Alguersuari for me. He did a great job.

3. I just feel like fucking up this race's rating for what is an horrid-looking track, despite some exciting action. But we got used to these battles this year, didn't we?

4 for me it was a very lame race. Vettel was away as usual. The rest was indeed very close but it was the usual procession. Nothing special IMO.

Get rid of DRS and get rid of the rev limit. Simple. :) I think the cars can generally follow a little closer than they did a few years ago, and Pirelli are doing an awesome job.

And yeah, I'm very much bored of Vettel winning. Sorry if that's a moan but I just find it predictable every weekend, sorry!

6 - Not bad, some good action but it was too easy for Vettel again

One think good the DRS did today was allowing slower drivers to stay ahead after being passed in turn 1.

Well Vettel flatters the car. There's only really one race (Canada) he should have won that he didn't. Two races I think of that really, really impressed me were Barcelona and Monaco - his judgement of the car and race management was exquisite.

Oh yeah, he is an incredible talent to watch, and comes across as a really nice guy outside of the car. But like the Schumacher era, you just start wishing bad luck upon them in the hope that someone else might actually win. I think I'd enjoy his skill much more if he was fighting for wins in an inferior car (much like you mentioned in Barcelona).

I don't really wish bad luck on him though, because the opposition has just as much luck. Except for Button who had 2 non-crash retirements this season, the others have had just as much reliability. I mean, I hoped Schumacher would retire back in the dominant days, because some of his rivals had car failures every other race.

A 5
Pretty much an average race this year. And I thought the battle between Hamilton/Webber and Co never had that much tension.

7 - Apart from the fact that this race was quite enjoyable, it had a nice autumn feel to it.

Can't believe I wasted two hours of sleep for that. Hamilton is such a chump.
