It's OFFICIAL!!!

Qualifying is a waste of time and strategy is above racing. Three drivers from three different teams not trying in order to save tyres.

May as well let the grid line up in the order of finish positions of the last race and make five tyre changes the minimum - one of them with one of those thin get-me-home wheels.

I still think the best qualifying was that short period of one lap, with the qualifying order being set by the finishing order of the previous race

So, Alonso wins. I am not in favour of this, but he did deserve it.
I see Red Bull cocked up on their qualifying strategy, but blimey, wasn't Vettel travelling in the last few laps? If they had got him in a lap earlier he would have been on the podium for sure.
Kimi was second; if the team hadn't cocked up his start he could have done even better.

[conspiracy theory]I wonder if Red Bull left him out a lap too long on the old tyres to let him know that the team (Horner) are in charge and can affect his results?[/conspiracy theory]

I admit that Alonso deserved the win, but F1 is getting like Wacky Races. There were times in the race, too many, when cars running line astern within car lengths of each other, and in x,y,z order, were not actually racing on the track.

How many ways can they nobble Webber, no petrol, change the traffic light system in the pits and still he is out there, time to call in Torro Rosso

How about that for a conspiracy theory

I have to admit, I lost interest in the middle of the race. I think I have got used to the highlighted versions, I find full races a bit long nowadays

I see Mark has a three place grid penalty for allowing the Toro Rosso to chop his nose off.

If I was Mark, I'd say "sling your hook" and buy my way out of that contract

Does anyone agree that Daniel Ricciardo is good? If he keeps on driving like that one of the big teams will be taking a good look at him.

There has been a bit of noise about him replacing the other Aussie, him being in the junior team..... and if things keep going as they are for both of them I wouldn't bet against it happening mid-season.

Yes I think he is good too and lets hope he gets a good drive before he ends up going to another formula
