    Wow..... Webbers best drive ever!!! Best drive Ive seen since Shueys last race before he retiring in '06.

    Very entertaining race
    also why cant they make DRS available anywhere on the track but can only be initiated 1 sec behind someone..... It would 10x better IMO

    what a brilliantly entertaining race - I honestly had no clue who was going to win it, and Webber's drive was outstanding. imagine if red bull could get the KERS working?

    David Coulthard summed it up beautifully in the closing stages;

    THANK YOU PIRELLI!!!!!!! - You have made F1 exciting again.

    I think its going to kill off the Qualifying sessions as teams reduce their laps and save tyres.

    Never the less, it was a Hollywood-esque performance by Mark, I kept listening for the montage music and replays of overtake after overtake.

    Seems Vettel's engineers need to take a leaf from Lightning McQueen... you need to change tyres to win races!

    Was certainly an interesting and exciting race and hats off to Webber for a podium finish after such a terrible start.
    Shame the Pirelli's dont last a tad longer but it does make it all a bit more fun!

    goodfella, i wouldnt really care in the slightest if we got qualifying like hamiltons as pole to give us that sort of race remebering he kept his tyres and still managed a pretty decent time. Yes it might be slower but I think you will find it will still be as close.

    No one crashed out but it was still interesting to watch.

    I wonder what would have happened if webber didn't get stuck in the pack at the back for the first 10-15 laps.

    No doubt he sure can drive when he needs to though.
    Yea. The fact that he got the hard tyres out of the way while was stuck in traffic helped though. He could then use those fresh soft tyres to full effect with a relatively clear track and just go nuts passing people.

    I think a few race engineers will be doing some thinking after seeing that!

    A friend in Germany has said to me that VW are working on a F1 engine to suit the new Turbo regulations. Couldn't say what label would be on the engine or even if it may not have more than one label. They could supply every other team in F1 with an engine of a different manufacturer.
