I understand that there was a time when there were too much water on the track, But to wait until its intermediate ? ffs they supposed to be the BEST drivers in the world . It gets to a point where there just too much rain/water on the track to see properly. I don't think grip is the main issue, but visibility. | ||

I think either Hamilton or Button was complaining about a lake forming on one of the corners, so standing water is still quite a concern I think. | ||

Furthermore, everyone is having a go at the lack of speed for Ferrari but in this race Hamilton was not catching Fernando at all towards the end of the race. The race pace wasn't really there. The Red Bulls were faster in the race today, as was the Sauber! It makes a super exciting start to the season though; it's impossible to predict what will happen in the next races and that hasn't been the case for a while due a certain driver. Speaking of Vettel, he was livid because of the incident with Karthikeyan; even going as far as calling him an "idiot". Having watched the incident that seems a little harsh. "Idiot" is always too harsh, because mistakes happen, but every driver would be pissed if something like that would happen in the later parts of the race. It looked like Karthikeyan wanted to get right behind Vettel a little too early. Unlucky race for Vettel and Schumacher, but overall it was very exciting. | ||

I thought it was his fault with Narain to be honest, he cut infront of him too soon. As for his behaviour on the track and with the media I think he was completely out of order showing a lack of respect towards his fellow driver. I didn't see the incident, but Narain is a shit driver and the HRT is a joke. If you have a blue flag you should GET THE FUCK OUT THE WAY. Same with Button/Narain. Was it explicitly Narain's fault? No, Button definitely overcooked it into the corner. HOWEVER, Narain should not have been anywhere near there at that point. | ||

Look at this video (especially 0:06 - 0:10). Karthikeyan was clearly moving right before Vettel passed him. He wasn't forced to do so. | ||

"It is really unprofessional. For a driver who has achieved so much to take out his frustrations on me just because he is having a difficult year is really sad. One does not expect a professional sportsman to be such a cry baby." I agree Narain. | ||
