Yippee! The youngster shows 'em how it's done. Great result for Lotus. Would like to have seen Kimi finish a bit further up the grid, considering how well he managed his first set of tires, but at least he was still in the points. Grosjean (when he manages to finish) is driving consistently well, both in qually and the races themselves. It's only a matter of time before he stands on the tallest step.
And boy it's nice to see a smile on Hamilton's face. Mr grumpy is going to ruin his image if he keeps this up. He certainly earned the win, what with his pit crew's "flypaper" pitstops.
Seven winners in as many races. It doesn't get any better than this. With the Austin race well along in the season, it still looks to be a wide open field, which will keep things interesing right to the end. Can't wait! Got the "Mr and Mrs tickets" yesterday. Is it November yet?

What a superb drive from Hamilton, he reminds me of Senna. Only the first place counts for him, as it should be.
Great drive from Romain as well, I think the Iceman imagined his return a bit different. He does not get used easily to the tires I think and Sauber outpacing Ferrari... fantastic!

Makes you wonder how the Enstone team would be performing with Kubica. I dont think many would have tipped Grosjean to have had quite so many results

Awesome drive by Hamilton. Well done Grosjean and Perez.
I agree with Gert. Hamilton was a class of his own this weekend!

Lotus have been really competitive and are currently running third in the constructors' tables. It feels just a matter of time before one of them pulls in a win. Great to see, but best that not one team / driver is running away with it.

Questionable strategy, and 2 questionable pit stops, and Hamilton still gets up and wins it. What a run of "Purple" time sectors, he deserved it.
I think Grosjean has done enough now to prove Flabio wrong too, an excellent drive.

Grosjean and Raikkonen have very impressive race paces. Too bad they can't get it just right in Qualies. They have the speed and bonkers cornering abilities in that car... As for Hamilton, in this race, his pace was just out there! However, I'd really like to see some overtaking done without the DRS system. It looks way too easy with it!

No worries, Nico. Rumour has it that next season when the following car's wing opens up, the leading car's nitrous injection automatically kicks in to even the odds.
