True but has RB figured out something the others have not? Probably. Sometimes they would probably rather Vettel slow down just a little

Not much substance to the story. How do you explain all of Webber's crappy starts if RB has TC?

^^True, but if you recall at the beginning of the season, RB was bitching about the McLaren ECU...stating that they were having "problems" with it, and it affected Webbers starts. I wouldn't surprise me one bit if they figured something out in the ECU

Isn't it funny? to save some money on fuel they have to invest billions in new engine technologies.

Screw that, screw f1.
I want the sport back... especially since a whole season uses less fuel than a boeing travelling from NY to Tokyo or a fighter jet during a week of training.

NASCAR drivers retire to the truck series. F1 drivers retire to sports car racing.

I hope Kimi goes to RB. I'd love to see the dynamic between he and Vettel on track in the same car.

Did Massa just crash again, at Silverstone in practice? I hope I'm mistaken.

Lap 29 - Why is DRS Disabled?
Update: and Lap 31 Re-Enabled?

Was there a full course yellow?

DRS is Dissabled again on Lap 32? And Re-Enabled on the same lap?
