Ferrari look awful. It's not that McLaren have caught them up - Ferrari have gone backwards somehow. They've got no balance whatsoever. Clearly at Silverstone you'd have just put it down to it not working in the wet, but it was the same today...
Hamilton and Piquet, good as they were, couldn't have possibly been luckier today.
Great 2nd half of the race by Piquet, but how lucky can you get? He was absolutely nowhere in the first half. It'll be interesting to see if this pushes him on.
Hamilton's pace was good. Clearly a perfect setup there - it was a joy to watch in the stadium section, but he was lucky in that everyone he had to pass essentially let him through. He was going to get them all eventually, but they just waved him past.
Piquet looks apoplectic in the press conference while Lewis was talking. :D
Only Hamilton in the PC too... @#$%& ITV.
Edit: oh yeah, FANTASTIC pass on Button by DC. Shame for Rubens that DC decided to crash into him later on. He was going well. Once more Webber's bad luck curse strikes... can't get a break that guy.
Man of the race... Glock for me with Hamilton a close 2nd. Was he on a 1-stopper? I had to restart my recording when he pitted, so I don't know how long he was fuelled for? He was much, much faster than Alonso and Vettel when he rejoined, so I doubt it. He didn't need a safety car to get his car long-stint car into a strong position anyway. Piquet didn't show anything until the safety car came out, and Hamilton's side of the garage @#$%& up badly, though he recovered well - he made what could have been a critical mistake (again) after his first pit stop, or I would have gone for him.
