Although Vettel drove very well, he was extremely lucky. The race just fell into place for him with the retirements and especiialy the safety cars. |
he didn't drive "very well", he took 9 laps to pass cars that were 3 seconds a lap slower than his and drove into a slow Senna in the process to damage his front wing, he got a ton of luck with the timing of both safety cars and with all the crashes and DNF's ahead of him, on proper overtakes alone he would have done well to get in the points...at best you can say he drove okay, but all the media hype and stuff is like they just ignored the race entirely.
OT:
great for Kimi, 8th different winner this season as well, probably my favourite of the non-Brit drivers as well, love his style. Gutted for Hamilton today, what is it with this years McLaren?
WDC is over now I expect, Alonso's best chance today to close in on Vettel again but as I said he had all the luck in the world today. unless Ferrari pull some miracle of development out the bag in the next 2 races anyway.
