Webber is probably only ahead of Hamilton in points at the moment because Hamilton has had a couple of races where he has underperformed. Otherwise, he would definitely be ahead.

Well that's my point, lewis is a faster driver but in F1 you need speed AND consistency.

Michael Schumacher wins pole position in qualifying..... but had a 5 spot penalty so Webber will start on pole.

but still, amazing to see good ol' Schumacher get the quickest time

first race of the season beginning soon. crazy weather forcing qualifying to be in the morning which corrected the grid a bit with the red bulls 1 and 2. I think Vettel wins this while leading the entire race

Haven't watched much more than a couple races off late due to the time zone and all but happy to see Kimi winning again.

Vettel is a machine, 7 straight wins.

Agreed. I'm hoping Mark Webber wins one. I feel bad for him after Vettel stole one from him earlier.

Webber just seems to have the worst luck. Whether its with other drivers or his car he always seems to get raw end of it.

Vettel is scum. Good driver though.

Hopefully Riccardo runs his face over next season.

I don't think anyone is a fan of Vettel the person, but as a driver his talent is absolutely ridiculous.

Circuit of the Americas was pretty great this past weekend in Austin, Texas. Great city and will hopefully be a great race there for many years to come.

Critical but stable condition for Schumacher. I really hope he pulls through.
