Vettel was totally to blame - and maybe the team asked Mark to get slower and turned up Vettel's engine, but maybe not. Anyways he was just too immature to figure out his team companion is also a contender for the title and one that would not change his line for silly maneuvers like throwing your car in the front of others even if you didn't have a clear advantage.
Button and Hamilton were a bit more mature. They had a great duel with virtually no huge risks for their race, even if it lasted for a while before Button was asked to manage his remaining fuel like Hamilton was doing. I think the tried to overtake at first thinking Hamilton had some issue with his car.
Few to comment on the other pilots. Schumacher definitely holds the upper hand over Rosberg, even if it is a close advantage. I wonder how things would proceed in a track that favors top speed like Canada. McLaren could have the upper hand over RBR.

Well RBR should have their own f-duct by the next race, so that should make things interesting

@ rainbow yoshi, I think we were all on the edge of our seats, I barely breathed during that section, I would have found it hilarious if they managed to knock themselves out as well, but it was just some good competitive driving in the end

I would consider the Turkish Grand Prix as my favourite of the year so far. I hope McLaren wins the season! The Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal is due to be held next!

Also do remeber that the Mclarens have a better car in slower corners right now to. So Canada and England ( new Silverstone track ) should favour Mclaren more. However both tems will be bringing new parts to both races. So hopefully we will have many more battles over the season. It's great to see a team challenging RBR now. And as a Lewis fan, I'm glad it's Mclaren. :)

On another note. As another posted has said. Great to see Schumi doing well again. I rally belive by the end of the season, he will have some podiums if not a win. He hasnt lost his racecraft and his pace is certainly improving race by race.

Also back in the days of Senna/Prost, Damon/Schui, etc they were very aggressive. Nowadys it's tame to say the least. Only really Lewis, Alonso and recently Button seem to be bringing the old win the race on the track feeling back. This is racing. Senna was penalised 8 times in his career quite severly. But this shows the determination to win on track. And not pitstops. I thought Lewis comment after the race was fantastic. He was asked why he didn't look to happy. He said he was happy, but is a racer. And wants to win it by merit on the track. All drivers need to put their dummy's away and take it to the edge. ( Safely obviously Vettel ) and make daring moves.

F1 is coming back to what it once was all those years ago.
