    its common out of problems that happen, reliability isn't exactly a problem anymore, the fault lies with the fuel rig not giving accurate reading of how much fuel they are putting in the car, its happened to quite a few teams in the past 2 seasons.

    Webber to start from pit lane, with new gearbox and revised gear ratios and Downforce levels for race trim.

    With china being such an extreme Tyre degradation track i think Webber easily has the chance to go for podium, granted the Redbull has pace.

    Looking good for Webber already, although, his tyres are 6 laps older than everyone else.

    Not a bad race. Shame there was no fight for the lead, but other than that, pretty satisfying.

    Go Ricciardo! Last year they joked that you wanted Ricciardo on Saturday and Vergne on Sunday... hopefully he can crack a few more top tens! Webber...groan!!

    Wish that Webber and Vergne never collided, just to see what would've happened between Vettel and Webber

    I think its likely though, Webber is unlikely to do another seaaon of F1 i think and he has a history of endurance racing which he would rather do then V8s back in Oz.

    But unless the rumor hits Autosport i don't think it has much credibility.

    Also on Ricciardo, if it wasn't for a front wing change in the first pitstop 5th could of been possible, as he lost about 10 seconds on that stop, and his final stint was several seconds faster then Kimi and hamiltons as well, considering the car he was in thats insane.

    Yea was a pretty interesting and enjoyable race to watch. I thought seb was gonna reel in Hamilton on the last lap for sure. Kimi was entertianing as well with his couple of incidents and commentries.

    yeah i missed that front wing bit, how much did he lose of it and who did he collide with?

    all the drivers who used DRS under yellows were cleared as well at least. RIC being one of them, wouldve been silly if they had been penalized given the circumstances.

    There's a reason why no penalties were given and it is because there are data link problems between race control and the teams or something like that. It's been happening for the first 3 races so far.


    If anyone has facebook they should 'like' F1 Memes' There is some seriously funny pics in there.
