This is what I was hoping to see more of this season, the New Generation soundly beating the old hands! Well done Sebastian! Well done STR!!

Absolutely stunning drive from Der Seb, and a thoroughly deserved victory.

What a race ! I was expecting a bit of carnage, but it was a good clean fight between all concerned with lots of overtaking.

I seem to have my mojo back about Singapore

I guess there is still room at the table for talent.

Since 1985…Minardi…fighting the good fight, well in my scoring book they won today. Plenty of congratulations all round!

@ todd:
“Hamilton took a few dodgy corners, really pushing the limits of the rules and tempting the FIA, dont see why he has to do it.”

I’ll hazard a guess and say, “he does so, to give us an opportunity to bash FIA!!!”

I wonder how long it’ll be before we see a teenager winning an F1 race?

What a season, what a race, what a win from Vettel.

I think we are in the middle of a “Baby Boom” in F1. The best generation of young drivers in decades…

Todd,

I think Massa gave the position back as it was on that very kerb he did the over taking, whereas in Hamilton’s situation, it was on the previous Kerb he over took, then took the second one as normal.

Great win from Vettel. Amazing drive. But STR are not the minnows any longer, they now have one of the best car, engine combination right now.

Great race by Vettel and STR. He’s been an impressive driver since his debut and let’s hope we hear more from him. Meanwhile, it was pretty neat to see all three first time winners on the podium together ~ a precursor for the future?

Fascinating, though, watching Kimi & his Ferrari struggle while Lewis and the McLaren took off. Times like that make you want to stop the race, exchange cars, and see how much of a difference comes about. Cheers to Vettel.

I knew 1982 will definitely figure into that list. Mann, that has to be the weirdest season in Formula 1. The Monaco GP 1982 is still said to be the craziest ever.And about 7-8 drivers were in the running for the win till the last 2 GPs. Wish I could have followed that season live..
