Is anyone going to even watch the last two races of the 2011 F1 season? I mean, the organisers may as well engrave the trophies now, send them out via DHL and save themselves the expense of running a race.
Sebastien Vettel continued his plunder of the 2011 silverware, winning the inaugural – and uninteresting – Indian GP at a pace somewhee between a gentle trot and a canter, holding Jenson Button at a 10sec gap for most of the race.It was the complete weekend – he qualified on pole, led every lap, set the lap record (on the last lap, if you don’t mind) and won the event.
And despite being gifted a P2 start spot after a three-place practice penalty was imposed on Lewis Hamilton, Mark Webber singularly failed to do anything with it, slipping to fourth behind Fernando Alonso and essentially ending any hope of a Red Bull season 1-2. He also held the lap record right up until the last lap, too…
