Nah it doesn't look that bad. He'll lose a little bit of aero but nothing serious.
I'm talking about how he escaped that collision with Senna.
How has he not got a penalty yet either? He clearly passed KK under yellow flags...

I'll bet my avatar that Vettel won't finish. Any takers?

I don't think Vettel should get a penalty. Let them race it out. I think the flags were for the wet conditions, not any specific incident.

I think it was a Yellow/Red Striped flag that was being shown on the screen... it looked very orange to be just a Yellow flag. Besides, there were no incidents there to have a yellow flag.

None in the slightest. It's the own kid's fault he nearly killed off his career in 2010 with a very average season at Williams. Remember, this was the guy who cleaned up virtually every feeder category he was in (including that brilliant A1GP season).

The scene in the Force India pits is reminiscent of Monaco 2008.

A fair assessment I don't think anyone in the business is unaware of his potential nor the pitfalls either.
Rain around the corner. This is intense.

Did Webber pull out of that one just to be on the safe side with Vettel so near, or did he just go off normally?
