I am not a fan of turning F1 into a sprint race. Once the field gets set after about 5 laps its just going to get boring unless someone crashes.

did you happen to see the grid position changes from start to finish? vettel finished 4th from like 14th.

I think there was even less passing last year IMO, the double deck diffusers certainly spoiled the reduced downforce (to enable cleaner air for the car following)

Great drive by Kamui!

Would have been nice to see the battle that might have been had Hamilton not retired...but Vettel and Hamilton will have plenty of time to battle next year!

Glad to see Webber hold off Button as well. Already looking forward to next season.
