I am also going to blame Vettel for the fact that the tyre provider has blue ballsed it after one race where their tyres happened to explode, and have since provided dull, predictable tyres that have happened to favour Red Bull, but only because Red Bull are that good that they adapt to new situations faster than everyone else.


Pirelli warned everyone that if they introduce the conservative tires Red Bull will profit the most. And that's exactly what happened. Apart from Hungary they've won all the races.

Everyone who moaned about the exploding tires at Silverstone and now moan about Vettel's dominance should shut up :wave:

But seriously, this race needs rain, not a big rain though since the pussy brats will throw the SC around again. I'm surprised they didn't ban the wet tires in F1 yet :yuk:

Perez gets a five place grid drop and will now start from P19.

Yeah, but teams/drivers have no running so far on dry tyres so that could be fun.

Boy that finger looks stupid the more times I see it! He really should have developed a less arrogant winning gesture. Too late now.

Fun races in the dry AD 2013? I guess you totally missed Vettel's results for the past three months :lol:

That never works out sadly :(

Preparing for a mediocre ending to this season (it can only get better if I start watching with this mindset)

I still think this season has been better than many give it credit for. The first half had some decent races with some good moments but the problem is that whereas in 2012 Vettel was inconsistent, in 2013 he was the most consistent.

Hopefully Webber and Massa have good races. Hopefully 2014 has a proper title battle.

I agree but I don't think Vettel was necessarily inconsistent last year. The cars were more evenly matched, but he and Alonso rose to the top of the standings pretty early on. Along with Lewis, they were the most consistent drivers early on when car performance was all over the place. Webber also was ahead of him for a few races in the middle of the season after Vettel's alternator failure in Valencia and his win at Silverstone. There was very little between all of them

The second half of the season was different - Red Bull seem to always be very strong in the second half, which may have a lot to do with the characteristics of the circuits (Spa, Suzuka, the Tilkerings), as well as being very good at developing their cars. We've seen that again this year, although the tyre changes were also important

But Vettel's incredible. Yesterday's pole lap was one of the best things he's done in an F1 car. He and Alonso are two of the best ever. Webber's not a slow driver and yet he's probably going to finish this season with no wins, as Rubens did in 2001. It's not all car

So by how mant sec will Vettel win? I'm guessing 45.
Oh and Alonso will get raped by everyone behind.

I don't want to see any radar. Entire Spa GP was basically me following radar and cursing how slowly the rain clouds were approaching. If it stays dry, fine. Already used to that after 18 races.

At least 2014 will see torrential rain at half the gp's and it will be known as the "delayed" season.

Some say it'll rain about 25 laps in. Watch everyone do what Button does in that case.
