The seven times world champion has closed within eleven points of Alonso after winning his third race in succession. Wasn’t it wonderful seeing him and Massa storm away from Kimi, Button and Alonso? I wasn’t surprised to see Kimi and Button pit so early because I think they short filled their cars to get a better qualifying time, but the early stops certainly ruined their race.
But it was really good to see Alonso struggling back in 8th at one point. He must be getting really annoyed with his lack luss performance, or are we finally seeing that he is not so hot when his car is crap.

I disagree with you. I thought Button’s stratergy was spot on. He would have finished 3rd had it not been for his tyres blistering in his last stint. Kimi had fuel rig problems in quali and also his first stop. Still did ok 3 stopping, although he was lucky that Button had problems. Shame about Webber, he had driven a good race.
