I think Taki Inoue will be eating his words about Kobayashi the other day!

You mean this guy?

That's so naughty, fantastic!

It's about time we saw Christian Horner's twitchy leg isn't it!?

You might want that, I'd rather not.

I don't want it, but that's the usual script for this time in a race led by a Red Bull.

I'm afraid I'm not a fan of Mr Horner

Yeh, that's the one! He put on twitter that Kamui couldn't drive a wet stick up a dogs arse.

Did he steal your lunch money?

[TheHeretic]

Big Button fan, but well done Koby!

And Massa for that matter.

[davepoth]

Well done Kobayashi. The crowd goes politely mental.

No, he's a smug git

I agree completely with this .... really good to see Koby get the podium spot.

And the crowd go impassive!

What happened - we didn't get the highly orignal "Congratulations Seb, you just won the <insert country> Grand Prix" from smug Horner

[Derek Smith]

A shower calls. Bye, guys.

Ah yes, the "smug" accusation. Another one I don't understand

He's always come across as being uncomfortable with the camera on him to me, but whatever

That about sums it up!

Disappointed not to see JB on the podium but the Japanese fans going nuts was great to see. Well done Kamui

[Mojocvh]

well. that. was. boring.

Vet from the front all the way.

Massa 2nd

Kobi 3rd at home

As for the rest??

Yep. Any other time I'd want JB to beat Bashi, but not today. JB should really have slowed with a "gearbox issue"...

+1000

He's now the third Japanese F1 driver to score a podium (P3 to be exact), after Suzuki Aguri and Takuma Sato. Hopefully there will be many more!

And kudos to Massa too!

Well done to Vettel, of course, for winning.

Bet you he did it and they didn't broadcast. They need the soundbite for the season review DVD.

Hate it. Sounds like a soundclip from a video game.

[Marf]

Pleased for Kobi, looks like the championship is going to go to the wire

[TheHeretic]

Massa and Vettel genuinely pleased for Koby.
