Who else spotted Vettel doing donuts after the race today, I cant believe Bernie will let him get away with that without a fine.

It was Webber. Cameraman missed it but the BBC did play some slo-mo from a different angle.

I'm sure it will pop up.

We were looking at a hotel instead. Dont know if you noticed but the was a hotel out there....it was pretty hard to spot, the cameras hardly ever picked it up with cars getting in the way!

As said on the Beeb, the donut should be compulsory!

At the end of the year no problem, the only issue dping it before at the moment is the silly engine and gearbox life rules. They wouldn't like to blow an engine or damage a gearbox either if the supply to be used is low already.

Did they ever mention how much those lights and hotel cost? I really wanted to be told repeatedly how much they had cost but I didn't hear once.

After Brundle'd Doughnuts comments I think Brundle should be Bernie's relacement.

£800 million for the hotel complex.

Great of Webber to do a few post race doughnuts after a brilliant scrap with Button. You could hear the noise but I was shouting at the TV for the director to switch back to it instead of showing a hotel with its lights changing as TBH who really gives a st about that..

I thought it was nice to see all the 'celebrities' there as well.

I wonder if they were staying in that hotel with all the lights on it ?

[sarcasm] Really? When did they say that? You'd have thought they might have slipped it in somewhere once. Or twice. Or several times. [/sarcasm]

Was there a band playing over the weekend? The kings of something? if they had mentioned their name over and over and over agin I might have remembered...

I thought there were some silly rules banning such activities.

There is, as its meant to be dangerous.

Divers can recieve a fine and possible exclusion for such dare devil antics, of course its not dangerous to corner at 150mph+ rolleyes
