Hardly second rate! The Red Bull has the superior qualifying pace, but in terms of race pace, there's little to separate the RB and the McLaren.

Not true. The McLaren works well in the cold as it's able to get heat into the tires easily, but that causes problems in hot conditions. The MP4-26 does have superior mechanical grip to the RB-7, but it's vastly inferior in aerodynamic downforce.

Who the f**k are you? Adrian Newey?

The RB is better, but the McLaren is hardly second rate. I'm a fan of Lewis, and he is the best racer on the grid, someone who takes risks and drives aggressively in all situations.

Until we see them in the same equipment, I find it hard to say who is better.

Majority of live F1 on Sky Sports from next year! The BBC will only show half of the races live with Sky Sports shgowing everything live.

Feel a bit cheated with that, though maybe that's because the BBC have spoiled us with the amount of coverage they've shown.... Think

Feeling a bit cheated must be the understatement of the year! BBC spoil us? That'd be a first!

Apparently they'll be no adverts on Sky Sports during the race. http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/2011/07/29/sky-show-f1-races-adverts-2012/

BBC are having to make major cuts. The F1 coverage was their most expensive program to produce.

Glad there'll be no adverts on Sky, that has softened the blow at least.

Hamilton is dominating easily. Is it possible he catches up Vetel till the end of the season?!

EDIT

And while I'm typing Janson takes the first place.

EDIT2

Lewis is pure class!

EDIT3

Brilliant tactics.

Button wins trophy

Hamilton 4th after a bad strategy call and also a drive through.

Di Resta finishes 7th, best result for him so far. clap

Idiotic decision by Mclaren to put Hamilton on the used options when everyone else took the primes. Good drive from Button (lots of luck there), but Vettel is certain WDC now.

All but mathematically impossible for Vettel to win the title now.
