Even as a Massa fan it's completely reasonable considering championship.

Oh it's reasonable, but still damn annoying, I like places to be decided on raw pace, not radio calls

Well he has to stay fairly close not only for impressions but in case Webber drops off.

Come on Ricciardo, that's the stuff you'd expect Massa to do with Alonso.

By the sound of the exasperated radio calls to Vettel it sounds like he needs a quiet talking too.

Looks like it's three titles on the trot for Vettel/Red Bull, can't see Ferrari magicking any more speed out of that car.

My highlight of the race is seeing Lewis Hamilton, with suspension damage and astroturf trailing across his flank, lap Narain Karthikeyan on the final lap.

How crap must your car be for that to happen!

So when is Luca Badoer going to perform the podium interviews?
He almost shared the podium with Herbert once, so why not him?

In FP3 Karthikeyan did his best Bruno Senna-impersonation by waving his hands in anger.
During the race it was Bruno Senna who did his best Alonso-impersonation by radioing in:
"This is ridiculous."

Jenson and Perez have raised an issue regarding the yellow flags in qualifying: -

http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/103415

I do actually agree with them on this, it is realy confusing for those watching to understand sometimes and it should be simple. For instance, the implementation of a delta time ala safety car to ensure everyone slows down, that would clear it up once and for all.

I really must protest at this hideous culture of hugging everyone that seems to have infected F1 (and sports in general).

So your man got pole position....it's no reason for the whole team of mechanics to start hugging each other, for christ's sake.

This is what comes of sticking cameras in places they've no reason to be. The act of observation alters the behaviour of those under observation and F1 is proving it each race.
