Not a bad start to the season. McLaren had their problems but should be happy overall. Vettel definitely the man to beat again. Was VERY impressed with Petrov in the Renault and Perez in the Sauber on debut. Also a mention to Paul Di Resta GB's latest F1 star in the Force India had a solid weekend.

I am already thinking that I should of gone Renault engine rather than Mercedes in my work f1 fantasy though.

I'm really concerned this season will be a total borefest unless the teams can find away to compete with the Redbulls.

Petrov was the only exciting thing really, other than a bit of a scrap between Button and Massa for a bit. I do find it funny they have that new contraception on the back wing but the big boys hardly used it... Pointless!

Glad it's back, hope the races get more exciting than that though.

let's be honest there are some tracks that just have a precession every year regardless. I think the new tyres might be the biggest cause of improved spectator interest this year

Another dominant performance from the champ and why is it McLaren team tactics always seem to backfire on Lewis?

any F1 doubters would of been eating their words this weekend. Absolutely brilliant weekend from start to finish. Great result too with Lewis winning and as for Webber I am simply speechless at that drive

Was by far the best GP of the season so far, I loved that everyone was so close and there was plenty of over taking. I watched it twice... first time ever!

However as they said on the day, the new Pirelli tyres are causing this at the moment as it's f*cking up everyone's strategies. One RedBull sort it then there will be no catching them, just look what Webber did, amazing! Another 4 laps he's have won that... And he started 18th on the grid.

I think it was a nice spectacle, but I don;t expect it to often this season. RedBull gonna rampage it this year.

Thing is Andy if he had been in the top 10 A he wouldn't of had the fresh tyres and B he'd have a totally different strategy so might not of done so well.

I'm enjoying the season so far. It's a shame we now have a 3 week break

The who tyre thing certainly is making this one hell of a season. Plus loving the fact Lewis Hamilton is a mad man bouncing off everybody on the grid at the moment, it's fun! Absolutely loved that Sunday's Grand Prix ran for over 5 hours, it was epic! I also found amusement tin that ll the old biddies threw a fit coz Antiques Road show got cancelled LMAO.

Still seeing nothing but Vettel winning this by an absolute mile, but the fact the races are actually fun at last is making it my favourite in memory so far.
