Massa 😲
Webber and the tactics 🤦
Hamilton 😢
Pastor Maldonado 🙂
Alonso 👍 is honestly just too lucky 🙂 the guy needs to go play the lottery or hit the casinos and quit messing around with Formula 1; he'd make way more money there... seriously, how much luck can one person have? It's insane... he should just take the win and run 😁
And nobody even realized that Glock basically drove a race worth millions of dollars 🙏
Marussia actually jumped ahead of Caterham in the standings 😲
that's just not true

Well, it looks like McLaren just helped Lewis make his final decision on where he'll be signing his contract for next season.🙂

honestly, I can’t decide which would be more painful—seeing Balavac take first place or watching Gumbek get there first 🙄

It’s true that within the current driver lineup, there isn't anyone better than Fernando Alonso,
but he really does have an incredible amount of luck on his side. His only real setback this season was when
Romain Grosjean took him out, though Lewis Hamilton suffered the exact same fate then,
and in all the other races, Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel faced much tougher struggles.
As if it wasn't enough that Hamilton had to retire today, now Pastor Maldonado is out too, which saved him from having to fight for 3rd place.
There's no need to list all the mishaps Vettel and Hamilton have dealt with this season; anyone following the sport knows.
You only need to look back at Valencia when Alonso jumped from 5th to 1st.
Vettel was leading until his car pulled aside, Grosjean's car failed, and then Maldonado
knocked both himself and Hamilton out just a few laps before the end. If that race had finished "normally,"
Vettel would be ahead of Alonso in the standings right now. And let's not even mention
last race, where Vettel lost about 10 crucial points due to a mechanical failure.
Kudos to Fernando, but luck can't follow him forever through the rest of the season,
so the title fight will likely stay wide open until the final race...
