Don't meant to rub salt in Vettel's wound, but, pit lane or not?

Pit lane is even worse I think

its worst without doubt. Cold tyres factor...

[Katu]

YES! YES! YES

you forgot: THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!

[fronaldo]

OFFICIAL-Vettel 24th

[anupa2k]

[alluri84]

Icing on the cake.......I can just see bonfire fireworks being fired from my apartment!

Grazie, fratello

[varun]

or DSQ both cars/..oh i meant cows!

[crbassassin]

Sweet justice!!!

[anupa2k]

this bulls are just big cheaters....

[Hornet]

its worst without doubt. Cold tyres factor...

Yep, and no overtaking at the start

However I'm not seeing any official source now that say he will start from pit. Just drop back to 24

[Forzi]

THIS IS BRILLIANT! I take back everything i said about the stewards threw out the season. THE CHAMPIONSHIP IS WIDE OPEN!

[SilverSpeed]

Ha told ya.

He who laughs last laughs best, just like Stefano said.

Alonso needs to maximize his race now cause finger kid can still finish in the points. Oh wait he can't pass cars that well + he lacks top speed + Pink cow's car only works well when their is no one in front of them.

HAHAHA.

[Tifoso84]

YEEEESSSS!!!!! Fantastic!!!

[SoumyaBanerjee]

Oh boy,its 0017 here. Was worth staying up late for it then But FA and co. need to make the most of this lifeline....

[Ferrari Man]

That was worth the wait... Now cross the fingers Alonso can have a clean race to third or fourth...

[varun]

now we should concentrate on getting upto 2nd tomm..
as the race win is little bit out of reach!!

[eddie]

and it all makes me question - why to discuss it for 4 hours? it's a fact

RBR was prob bargaining for a 10 place drop instead. Didn't pan out I guess...

[Katu]

i don't remember much from last year's race, but 2 years ago it was quite difficult to pass and if it's one-stop race, could be that Vettel doesn't score any points this time

[DJTaurus]

Sorry guys but we must cool down. Even if ALO will close the gap in the tomorrows race do you really believe that ferrari will deliver in the next races.....?
I am fed up with hopping and waiting so many years for a car really competitive from qualy...enough is enough. Luca should fire some people. I am fed up with damage limitation and hopping for misfortune to others.

[FerrariF60]

Sweet justice!!!

indeed....finally Ferrari and Fernando get a break...hopefully fernando will be on the podium( even 3rd is fine with me) tomorrow and Vettel gets a big GOOSE EGG....ZERO points that is....

[Mimo966]

Finally!! Im so happy they banned redbulls, its like they are always cheating and they are always getting clean.

[alluri84]

Is it official now?!

Yes, it is!

[anuragiyer8989]

Ok, guys.....this is official.....Vettel will start from P24.
Now for the important part.....if Fernando wants his lead back he will have to be on the podium nonetheless.
It's our championship to lose from here on.........

[F2008]

Good news, but only if Alonso can take advantage of it tomorrow.

[Tifoso]

If Alonso can manage 3rd, and Vettel no points, it's 242A-240V


Man, would I love a 2nd place.

(although, if Vettel has been shorting fuel before....)

[Katu]

hold your horses, there's 3 races left, stewards have made questionable decisions and they can make more of those

[Hornet]

Pastor Mal has gotten big headed with his qualifying result. I'm worried about him.
