just watching the race now... *fingers in ears* lalalalla spoiler free zone

lol shumi? go back to retirement. (they say rosberg did it, but shumi could have ran wider)

lol liuzzi, fails again.

what was with vettel lagging behind after the SC?

why did they leave that pile of dirt on the track?

why did algesaurus let webber through?

lol @ hamilton being stuck behind kubica

yeah, figures, a redbull would win. gg vettel, what a boring way to end out the season.

All in all Vettel was easily the most deserving WDC winner this year IMO. What with 3 DNFs and still beating Alonso who was "gifted" an additional 8 points by team orders.

Have you got a bigger version of that bottom image?

No, sorry... incredible picture eh..

Quote from TexasLTU :

Its funny, no? Just before friday I heard so much of "everyone, but Vettel plz plz". Now I see "omg Vettel you're so great". Hypocrites

For me it was everyone except Alonso. And getting angry about Pretov after the race just showed me once again why I don't want him as WDC

So before you tend to blame everyone to be a hypocrite, get your facts straight. Thank you

I tell you this...Hispania made it to the end of 2010 when many people said it would fold mid-season. I'm glad they did, because they get to take their prize money for finishing ahead of Virgin before they can go bust during the off-season

We've seen a wonderful season. Really intensive, full of surprises and good stories as well. Can't say anything else than that I'll definitely miss Formula 1 over winter.

We can give credit where it's due, but still hate the outcome.

Well, I'm happy it wasn't Alonso. Would have preferred Webber, but Vettel will do.

Fair play for Red Bull, congrats Vettel!

You took my words...
Anyay it was priceless to see Alonso's face after race :P
And have to agree how lucky was Schumacher-Liuzzi accident, I think it's another new birthday for Schummi

Err, AFAIK price moneys are only given to the top 10.

Anyway, I have to say that the system is quite unfair to Virgin, they've been in front of HRT all season, and in the end they get behind them in the standings as they broke during the most retirement-full GP and not HRT...

Still I hope that HRT is gonna be back next year, was nice to see them surviving, seeing where they started

I'm pretty sure it's an internal bet.
Also, we're gonna see Richard Branson as a steward on a Air Asia plane, since Lotus Racing finished above Virgin

Quote from DeadWolfBones :

+1. Both Webber and Vettel come across as likeable guys, whereas Alonso is a spoilt prick and Ferrari are a bunch of cheating arseholes.

I still have to give credit to HRT because they managed to struggle for a year with that dog of a car and still they've managed to find ways to grow up for 2011. It will take some time until the spanish government actually starts giving a damn about them and gives HRT some funding instead of being obsessed with their football teams, and with pay drivers, those TF110's with Williams tech aren't going to do much...

You want the Spanish people, who are pretty much shagged economically,to pay for an F1 team???

"I can't afford to clothe and feed my children and you want my money to pay tax for some rich kids to go motor racing?" "Yes, now give me your money"

What's the world come to?

Yes, sorry, this is just wrong, especially considering Spain's current situation

In other news rumours say Maldonado might do the 2011 season for HRT before jumping to Williams, maybe he'll bring a few millions if that happens.

I think Maldonado is signed up for 11 for Williams, because Hulkenberg certainly isn't. I think Williams wanted Hulkenberg to stay contracted but drive for HRT, which he flat refused! Fairplay to the lad, doesn't wanna be a pay driver, nor a backmarker!

A blank year isnt going to help him much, either

Did I freaking know Spain had financial problems? I only meant part of the money that is spent (WASTED!!!) by Spain on football should go to HRT...now that you say that it's a stupid idea, but there's no need to get so worked up about it.

How about no money spent on Spanish football and no money spent on F1 meaning no money is wasted. That's a solution. No wonder most western economics are in turmoil

oh well, lets hope the Australian GP does not fall out of the calendar now as it's a freaking awesome track, even just to watch the cars mastering it.

However, congrats to Vettel now made it clear who the champion driver in RBR is

Emotional and beautiful ending for an interesting season. Bring on next season with a record-champion-comeback and more affairs, lies and real love
