If Vettel had used the prime tyre in qually he would probably still have been still on pole based on being half a second faster than Mark.
Then the others would probably not seen him all afternoon. |

A relatively clean start, though someone lost a front wing and Massa up to 2nd.

Vettel's got himself up to P2 but Webber is P1, could be interesting.

Tough luck for Webber. I'm hoping Ricciardo finishes strongly.

Congrats to Vettel on winning the Indian GP for the 3rd time and the WDC for the 4th time.

Luckily for Red Bull it was - again - the right car that broke down. Other than that: yawn!

No conspiracy at all to this, just another illustration of how the luck tends to fall...

The disappointing truth (disappointing to the conspiracy theorists, that is) is that it would have been even better for Red Bull and their sponsors to make it a double podium celebration with a 1-2 and acknowledge Mark's vital role in his last season in winning the Manufacturer's Title.

You have to begin to ask yourself what is going on when drivers are changing tyres after one or two laps of a GP. That, to me, is not what F1 should be about...... I fully appreciate the need for strategy in this day and age, but that really is one of the daftest things I've seen for a long time....

This is the trouble with gimmicks. Sooner or later the conditions will arise for the teams to make them look like gimmicks.

And if that isn't enough, we get Pirelli & the FIA dictating how many laps the teams can run on the tyres this time around.
I get the notion that the FIA asked for this crap-fest and Pirelli delivered what was asked for, but Pirelli picks the compounds and in this case and at this venue, the 2013 version II Pirelli soft tyres were rubbish. If we can't get rid of Pirelli perhaps the two compounds per race rules should go? |
