It was a fantastic race, that red bull has more horse power in reserve than i could have ever imagined. A few more laps and Vettel would have started doing donuts around everyone else, crazy race for him starting from a pitlane and then changing front wings and still coming 3rd, he did have 2 safety cars which lended a helping hand! And Abu Dhabi grand prix was talked of as a boring circuit :P this was probably the best Abu Dhabi gp ever! Brilliant strategy by the Red bull team.

Best Part of the GP, ice cold Kimi showing us again his dead pan antiques, his response back to his engineer was epic!

Mercedes as usual was useless, feel sorry for MSC if he has to end his career in this piece of junk by Formula 1 standards. Heck teams with half the budget are doing better!

Alonso closing in on Vettel, but Vettel is still strong with his car cant wait for the next race.

I missed this race but its heartening to see Kimi winning a race after a long hiatus, I've been a fan of him since I know him as the racer, Mika Hakkinen was my first favorite when he was with McLaren. I wish Kimi donned the shoes of McLaren once again!

Superb win for Lewis Hamilton the winner of maiden Austin F1 Grand prix- The Circuit of America's.

2nd-Sebastian Vettel.

3rd-Fernando Alonso.

Stayed up late to watch the entire GP especially after Schumi's super qualifying lap, but no fun watching him go back, at this rate it might take a few 100 years for them to understand tyres.
Sauber, Williams, Force India and even Torro Rosso doing better than them - disappointed really to see Michael exit with such a car.

Good part being the title war doing down the wire to the last race, Alonso has been one hell of a gritty driver despite not a front row competitive machine.

Schumi is going to get his current AMG Petronas F1 car when he retires this weekend.
As a gift from Silver arrows.

As a gift from Silver arrows.

The best gift that they can give him is a good car for his last race and NOT the car itself.. Maaaan he was like a sitting duck in front of the whole of competition.

The championship has really become intense and it has gone to the finale in Interlagos. Really hoping for Alonso but it seems difficult with the speed Vettel is holding now.

 

[Iron Rock]

To make it exciting there are rain predictions, i hope it pours and brings up some surprise results!

 

[type-r]

if it rains, then all hell will break lose. really hoping Alonso can hold on somehow to Vettel. my prayer is that Vettel and Hamilton collide into each other and DNF and then Alonso first, Iceman 2nd and Schumacher 3rd. Hope it comes true! :P

ah interesting race. Kudos again to Alonso for hanging on. Congrats vettel but I hate you. Next year it is surely going the tifosi way and Alonso.

 

[Iron Rock]

What a wild and wacky race, thoroughly enjoyed it. Kudos to Vettel for making it 3 in a row, 2 of them happening only in the last race of the season i think. Alonso as always has been always there near about. Wish he had a little bit more competitive car. His podium finishes has been amazing this year.

Sad though that Schumi left yet again but secretly hoping he comes back once more

Wonderful win for Vettel at the same time feel sorry for Alonso who was equally brilliant through out the season.
