    Chuffed for Webber. Hope he can make a good fight for the championship in what will probably be his last year with Red Bull. He seems to understand this this year's Red BUll better than Vettel.

    Hamilton won the Canadian grand prix today. 7 different winners already this year.

    Refreshing season thus far after Sebastian's dominance last year (not that I dislike him, mind)

    This season gets better and better :icon_mrgreen:

    I've really warmed to Hamilton this season he's shown great maturity and consistency. If McLaren hadn't * up so often this season he'd be well ahead in the championship instead of just a few points.

    I like him....having said that, i dont really dislike any of them these days...except Schumacher!!!
    I like Button and Vettel also.....but i dont want him getting 3 in a row.
    DiResta reckons he used to beat him in F3000 so i really hope he gets a big drive next year to get access to the podium.

    Di Resta has a great head head on his shoulders to add to his considerable driving talents. He could be consistently going for titles for years to come if he had the right machinery under him.

    There's many things I don't like about Schumacher from his first stint (cheating *) but the thing that annoys me about him this time round is his demeanor seems to suggest that he doesn't really take racing in F1 that seriously anymore. I'm probably wrong but that's my take on him. Imagine how many drivers would crawl over broken glass to get a seat in his Merc.

    Anyone watching?

    I love Valencia, great city, one of the best looking circuits imo, only Spa, Monaco and Montreal surpass it for me.

    Sebastian has it sewn up, eleven second lead already.

    Felt sorry for Hamilton. Did well and then Maldonado's wrecklessness cost him. Although Hamilton's had his own experience of that.

    What a race :50:

    Sensational stuff from Alonso, he's the best driver on the grid by a mile :50:

    A shame for Vettel but it was boring watching him 20 seconds ahead of the pack, reminded me of almost every race of last season.

    Gutted for Grosjean, he's an excellent and very exciting driver.

    I'd say Hamilton was at fault more than Maldonado. Lewis left Pastor no room whatsoever and he had nowhere to go having already been bullied off the track.

    Webber deserved alot of credit for making up 15 places.

    Can't wait for Silverstone now :icon_mrgreen:

    EDIT: Just seen the Maldonado has been given a 20 second penalty for his collision with Hamilton so he's classified 12th instead of 10th and loses his point. His team mate Senna will take the point. Very harsh IMO.

    hamilton was on the racing line, so he did nothing wrong. pastor had the whole run off area, he could've used that of yielded to hammy and tried again but instead he drove off the track then drove straight into hamilton, pastor didnt even try to avoid it.

    great race tho, i actually missed it thinking its valencia, nothing happens. watched the highlights and there was action every lap all over the track with close group racing.

    im hoping for a lotus win soon and caterham to grab a point :50:

    Id say it was more Maldonado's fault also......but Hamilton was completely stupid even getting involved with him.He was never going to be able to hold him off in the long run, so why not just let him go and pick up his points for 4th?Dumbass!

    Opinion seems to be really split on who was to blame. Even F1 pundits are split. I still maintain that Lewis should have left Pastor more room since there was not a chance in * he could keep him behind but Pastor was overly aggressive and not for the first time.
