The next few races - and maybe the rest of this year - should be great due to the teams not being familiar with the tyres. Next year they'll have data from every track to refer to, but until then it seems we'll be in for some great racing due to a lack of true tyre strategy!! Woohoo.


How insane was it that they were doing around 330km/h on that back straight (around 90meters per second) and then just 100m before the corner they brake down to low 2nd gear?! Brake late by 1/10th of a second and you're around 10 meters past the corner. Insane.

Best race I've seen in years, action all over the place.
Webber was a star, one more lap and he would have had Vettel.
Can't wait for the next race.

Just think it might be worth pointing out the next race is Turkey.

Turn 8 should murder these Pirelli's. Think its going to be another cracker.

The Mercedes have a quick pace on this track.

Rosberg just about got Webber and stole 2nd.

I liked the track and particularly the last sector. Lots of action happening there!
Well done to Mark for holding second and also well done to Rosberg for his 5th place finish! As for Shuey... no comment.
