The over celebration of a gifted win is really cringworthy from Vettel... reminds me of Michael Schumacher's worst days.
Was just thinking the same. I quite like Vettel these days but a bit of humility given the circumstances wouldn't go amiss.

Big event I guess though, been a long time since Ferrari won there, Ferrari, Monaco, history blah blah.

I watched some old footage of races from the very early days on You Tube earlier. Now that's racing. Ok, everyone dies on the first lap but it's a hell of a spectacle.

I find hearing the German national anthem followed by the Italian national anthem highly nostalgic.

Ironically that performance probably hugely helps Kimi's chances of getting a 2018 contract... but does he really want it now his no.2 status is 100% confirmed for all to see... on that note Perez was not doing himself any favours today.

Did you notice her whisper ' help me to kimi.
Apart from the money I would think her life would be hell.
True, her eyes are saying 'help'
This whole podium is so cringe

I see the anti-Vettel posters are in already demeaning his win and making excuses for the others not winning hehe

I would have loved Kimi to win but the luck wasn't with him today. He asked to come in, Vettel put some blinders in, Kimi stuck in traffic and the rest is history.

Kimi looks a little annoyed.
Too be fair he didn't have the pace.

And to be honest, this championship has every sign of being very tight. There will be many far more obvious no1 / no2 driver plays by the teams yet... I don't actually think that was one.

How have they managed to suck all the life out of podium this year?

It used to be one the better ones, this was just awkward!

It's quite simple really- if Kimi was faster then he would be on the top step wouldnt he.

Feel for Kimi. But of a st way to lose. And then to have to watch Vettel act like a prick.

A row of people at the back who obviously don't like each other and want to be somewhere else probably doesn't help.

You think you'd put more effort into something that keeps your stty little principality on the map. Its only a few minutes.
