Though it could just have been something picked up off the track/ kerbs.

Very true.

They might have done that so they'll have an excuse as to why their car is so low

this from the data. (replied to wrong quote was attempting to comment Massa was falling behind McLarens right from the start of 1st stint)

**Fer12** · 28th October 2012, 12:56

**scuderiafan** · 28th October 2012, 12:56

no, im trolling through some sites and cannt see anything yet.

**Rosso Corsa** · 28th October 2012, 13:00

Very suspicious of Red Bull at the moment. That was one weird problem to appear and disappear.

**bluesilhouettes** · 28th October 2012, 13:00

RB used active suspension. Please stamp out their cheating.

"We will not be happy here, but in Brazil. Claiming second we lost the minimum points. We were fast on the straights, but we lack grip in the turns."

I'm your biggest fan, Fernando !

**Hornet** · 28th October 2012, 13:01

Pat Fry say there are few updates coming for next race, and some for America too.

nope, we thought we did with a 2.8s....adn the red fools crushed us with 2.6 seconds....

still not bad at all....

**Tifoso84** · 28th October 2012, 13:03

Considering where we were yesterday it was a good result in the end. What a superb drive from Nando once again.

Shame about Felipe though. Seeing how well Fernando did, I would've expected a little bit more from him.
Second place was a really good result for Fernando, first place would've been perfect of course, but the Red Cow was just faster this weekend and second place was max.
There's absolutely no doubt that Nando is the best driver in F1 at the moment. The things he can do...wow, just incredible.

By the way, who got the fastest lap?

Button last lap of the race, 1.28

Re Vettel the latest from RAI is that it may have been debris collected under the car, which eventually flew away.

RAI the station of course, not Mr. Kimi

Yea, it seemed very weird to me too.

FIA really needs to take a closer look at those Red Cows.

**Rob** · 28th October 2012, 13:09

im hearing that Webber has walked out of the press conference, isnt being asked anything.

**anuragiyer8989** · 28th October 2012, 13:09

Wow, this has been a beautiful race by Fernando.....it made it even special to watch him live from the pitlane above,amidst the 15000 fans cheering him from the grandstand.
I'll watch his maneouvers on Maccas and Webber, again & again coz that was sheer genius!
WDC chances? He thinks he can win it.....I say he will!
Go Fernando!

Forza Ferrari!!!
