Yeah, I watched that this morning... quite an exciting race. Don't know wtf Vettel was thinking? It looked like he got right up next to Webber and then just swerved right into him! Then the two Mercedes start going at it too. lol Thought they were gonna take each other out too but ended up ok in the end. I think maybe Button just wanted Hamilton to know "hey, you're not faster than me. If we weren't conserving fuel I'd take the fight to you". Who knows.

What was Vettel. What was Webber thinking. Webber's engine was down on power so he could save fuel. Vettel didnt have to power down for another 2 laps. The pass on Webber was clean the fact that Webber moved Vettel to the grass drity as fuck. But yes I also blame the team aka Webber get out of the way. It was funny watching the Mclaren boys try to take them selfs out as well but I didnt happen the way I wanted.

Yeah I watched it and what a shunt. But what a stupid move on Webber to be that close on a lapped car going into a braking zone.

Full bane is clearly on Webber, Kovalinin was moving out of the way to give hime the inside. but Webber is ok and said he plans to race in Silverstone.The bad thing is that the car has to get tested for integerty. It was Webbers best car.

^ Not completely true....

If you watched a NON-Speed channel feed you heard Heiki say "I was fighting for position and webber came over the back of me." to his pit crew.

It is STILL Webber's fault though, but HK wasn't trying to get out of the way. Just glad to see he is alright.
