Mostly that stands to reason. When overtaking you have to settle into the racing line at some point to make it stick. Posession of that line is 9/10 ths of the law

I lol'd at Vettel telling his team "I can go much faster than him [Button] so do something"

I do not know what prompted mclaren to do it but it wrecked his race. A possible podium to nowhere in one idiotic move.

Pastor Rafael Maldonado Motta (born March 10, 1985 in Maracay, Venezuela[1]) is a Formula One driver currently with the Williams team. Before making his Formula One debut in 2011, he won the 2010 GP2 championship. He became the first Venezuelan to win a Formula One Grand Prix when he won the 2012 Spanish Grand Prix from his first pole position. Maldonado also raced in the Venezuelan Destruction Derby Championship, winning the title, a record 5 times from 1992-1997, killing 32 drivers and injuring a further 13. When he retired from the Championship, he was voted the most dangerous man in Venezuela, and 40% of the voters started a petition to make sure that Maldonado should never set foot in a car again. The petition was squashed by Venezuelan president, Hugo Chavez.[2]

Lol Button on pole

 

[Rosaudio]

Wow, Button on Pole.

Kobayashi P2 and Masldonado P3. The first corner is going to be very interesting Nobody will make it out alive

Hamilton starting P7.. disappointing, definitely needed the other setup.

All good and well destroying everyone in quali but spa is about race setup. Starting 7th isn't that bad.

More than likely hamilton will beat button tomorrow.

Now chuck in some changeable conditions and it's on!!!!!!!!!

SPA has been about pit strategy in the past... how much overtaking happens in the race? Perhaps this year will be different?

Button should be easy meat on the first lap, i just cannot see button winning. His setup is great for qualifying because the rest of the field went for the race.

It seems hamilton failed but he is running what should be the correct setup. I would imagine none of the top 3 qualifiers will sit on the podium tomorrow.

Got a good feeling kimi is going to win tomorrow.
