    Shame about Vettel and Grosjean, but a great podium! The 'oldest' podium in a long time.
    Hamilton throwing away his chances, he should have settled for any possible points and just let Maldonado pass...

    Indeed! All former world champions and at least 2 were regarded "over the hill".

    Surely the best race of the year!
    Just when you thought "Oh well there goes Vettel again" ...BOOM!
    Grosjean ...BOOM!
    Hamilton ...OOPS!
    Maldonado...your fault - DEMOTED!

    I thought the Tifosi were going to explode when Alonso parked that red beast in front of the stand and did his war dance for them.
    What a day for Spain!

    Not sure if I agree; Hamilton was fighting a lost battle, all he could do was get to the finish and see if he would end up with a few points. The McLaren looked like it was driving on ice!
    So why try to defend so desperately..? Now he got no points at all.
