aki13 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
It was cool what Vettel said about the regs, but would he say the same if he had won the first two races.

I haven't like the regs the last 5 or 6 seasons, but I guess Seb loved them.

I haven't enjoyed F1 as much since 2008

Massa, for declining the team order, I don't think Bottas would have passed button. Massa's done enough yielding for previous teams, and it's too early in the season.

I dislike team orders, full stop. However I do see that there are two distinct flavours of team orders and one is more unpalatable than the other.

1. Transfer points from one driver to another. This is the classic arrangement that Massa was subjected to at Ferrari. Swap round the two drivers so the Chosen One gets a couple of points that rightfully belong to Number Two.

2. Improve the team's point's haul. This was clearly what Williams were hoping for in Malaysia. Massa is 7th and Bottas 8th. Swap them round, then Bottas goes and jumps Button. Team Willie now have 6th and 8th instead of 7th and 8th.

I agree, but we are not sitting in a race car in sweltering temps so in that moment considering that Felipe's first race was so short lived, I can't say I blame him really .

The sport has enough trouble now with results without starting to swap team mate points around. Claire Williams was very careful NOT to put Massa under the thumb when questioned about it after the race. Let the team deal with it the way they choose to. Driver management is their problem to deal with.

Hamilton - magnificent, one horse race!

Vettel - for telling it like it is!

Massa - for making his intentions clear! If blooming Bottas is faster, why is he behind? Let him prove it he has DRS!

Hulk - great work!

That's funny....Massa being told to move over for the upteenth time in his career. I think Bottas has the better of him already.

That's not a surprise, he's a very good driver. I guess Massa has now to stabilish himself as driver #1 and that's what is happening.

yep, Bottas looks to be the real deal. this is shaping up as one of the more exciting aspects of this early season.

it will interesting to see how Claire Williams handles it.
