Im the opposite...I moticed everytime VET got close to a backmarker, they all went wide on the corners etc and allowed him past with no fight, although they were all fighting for position....

MSC clearly let him pass as well (Although he said before the race he wanted VET to win so no surprise there...)

Back markers should be getting out of the way (unless your Felipe Massa and you block).

ha ha, i think that was more because of wet weather than anything else. we all have a different perspective on the race.

MSC let him past on principle.

No - the peak of my tin foil cap fell down across my eyes. I saw nothing.

think he was just using case in point about conspiracy nuts...

because Alonso called it, most people (theorists) would see it that way too, for those who cant think for themselves.

Vettel also relayed the debris also to his team, when his radio was working, no conspiracy there...

dunno about you guys but hanging to see how HAM does in AMG Merc next year.

Merc need to lift their game massively - at the end, they were out gunned by Lotus, Sauber, FI & Williams.

true, if they only applied the same ingenuity in their pioneering of the DDRS and put it in to reliability.

it all goes back to zero for DDRS as it will be banned.
