Well done Button although the luck vettel gets makes me laugh.

Well done Perez aswell

[Gtiain]

Vettel was so lucky getting the safety car when he did! Jenson was relatively comfortable today but still a good drive  

No matter what people say about alonso, he's a damn good racing driver. How he got that Ferrari into 5th I don't know!

[andrewparker]

Yep, great race for Alonso. Kimi didn't do too badly either.

[andrewparker]

Hamiltons seems pretty despondent about that result!

[MC71]

Well done to Button.

Ill let you know my opinion come later on today when BBC show the edited highlights 
BBC FAIL

What the hell is wrong with Hamilton? This is my problem with him. It was the first race of the season, he qualified on pole, but had a poor start. Nevertheless there are plenty of positives to take from the race, most importantly that they seem to have a car that is on par with Red Bull, yet he is miserable as sin. He is so negative.

Notice that the sh*tsinger is back in the garage. No wonder his head is all confused.

I agree with you but if it wasn't for the poor start and bad timing of the sc then he may have won the race. Who knows.

As a Williams fan, its good to see the Renault engines are finally giving the power and pace Williams have been lacking for a while. Desperately unlucky for Maldonado for crashing out on the last lap 
The 8 points he almost scored today would have been more than what the whole team scored for the whole of last season - speaks volumes!

Just heard Hamiltons post race interview on the radio and he is such a miserable git. Im finding myself going off him quite quickly now as any other driver on the grid would've been well chuffed with P3. He needs to sort it out and quick

[RobH]

The only mistake Hamilton made today was wheel spinning from the start, and yet things still conspire against him and he ends up 3rd. After all the sh*t from last season hes probably thinking de ja vue.

Vettel on the other hand, schumacher breaks down and the safety car hands him 2nd, yeah he passed Rosberg with a good move but who didnt. Things are certainly still going Vettels way and he knows it. For some reason theres always something to paper over the cracks with him.

[MC71]

Am a Hamilton fan but wish he wolud STOP bloody whining. Take the points and the knowledge that you have a good car under you and move on to Kuala Lumper next Sunday. 

[VC]

someone needs to buy hamilton a new dummy  there is plenty of other people who would have loved 3rd...

Maldonardo, so unlucky! he so deserved those points..

and Button.... COME ON MY SON!!!!

 

well raced, nice and humble as normal, this is going to be a soooooperb season 

[Frenzy]

I'm a Hamilton fan too but these days only of the driver, Hamilton the person doesn't seem to have too many likeable traits on display when he isn't behind the wheel - why he was so down i'll never know, alright so he's disappointed, yep we all get that, he feels like he's lost out on a few points today but contrast his attitude with that of Button's yesterday after qualifying. If things were reversed and Button had come 3rd he no way would he have acted in the same manner as Lewis. Today he acted like he'd witnessed Button and Vettel running over his cat/dog/gerbil.

Hamilton can not master his emotions, he's pretty immature in that respect and i feel that it ultimately costs him. It certainly did last season and though he likes to tell us he's put all that behind him, his display out of the car today suggests that's not really the case... he needs to keep a sense of perspective, 1 race in, plenty to go and your car is very competitive 

well done Button
