In case anyone is bored over the break, have a go at making a paper E20   I've printed it off on A3 at work so it'll be nice and big, just need to get started.

Hamilton is far too inconsistent.

Why do you say that?  
 
Because he was slower than Button today? Maybe it was to do with his car as it had a completely different wing setting to Button (which from the talk before the race was a bit of a gamble) so it just looks like he was very lucky with the gamble working out. 
 
This is the year that IMO the car is all important. Doesn't matter how good a driver you have if the car is not right they do not perform.

He can never produce a fantastic time over just the 1 lap. 
 
Messed up his first run so came in, went back out and messed up again. 
 
Can't handle the pressure.

Hamilton has done some stonking single hotlaps before, just went the wrong way on setup today. 
 
Still an awesome lap from JB, even on the same setup that would have taken some beating IMO. Hopefully Malintent doesn't ruin the start tomorrow and hopefully Hamilton can get round Alonso early. 
 
Some good points up for grabs here with the RB's so low down.

Its great to see JB back on pole after so long and also gives a good indication that the new rear wing on his car has been a nice step forward for the team. Lewis opted for the older rear wing and unfortuantely it didnt pay off. However, I expect to see lewis on the move, he wont give up without a fight

Looked like Hamilton got cut across by the lotus which then screwed him and all he could do is roll into anything that was in front of him

Slightly too agreesive for my liking. I can see him getting something for the next race for that one due to the outcome of it. 
 
He just left Hamilton no-where to go, Hamilton couldn't even just brake to drop behind because  gorsjeans rear tyre was in the way. 
 
Must have been scary from Alonso

Me too think Hamilton still had a bit of room to move and a split second to slow.  Guess the mood he was in this weekendend after tweet gate he kept his foot to the floor

1 race ban for Grosjean. Does racist Dan still think it was Hamilton's fault?

he had no room to move anywhere    
 
it was either go onto the grass and crash or keep going straight. 
 
antony davidson slowed it down and you can quite clearly see grosjean keeps moving over just before the tyres touch.  
 
grosjeans a complete idiot and coming across like that in the first place was dangerous in itself. 
 
glad button won, glad kimi finished well but proper pissed hamilton once again gets a DNF due to another drivers idiocy.

Are you some kind of twat? Thats exactly whats he best at   
 
Frustrating. What can you do when you get taken out like that? The gap is still the same to the leader though, so not much lost. Very scary crash though, the on board shots were just   
 
Quite surprised Grosjean got banned for that though, theres been much more dangerous moves that havent been punished as harshly, he just happened to make a small mistake that resulted in a very dangerous crash because of the short run followed by tight hairpin. 
 
Race itself was pretty decent with some good overtaking.
