Brawn committed to Mercedes future
Ross Brawn remains wholly committed to his future at Mercedes GP, even though he has revealed that he is already considering succession plans.

Vettel not giving up on title

Buemi apologises for taking out Glock

@m_waqas

I ve been up all night, the race show started at 6am so i'm sorry if i say anything that makes no sense.
Look at what i had to do to kill some bulls. You remember that theory i told you bout me suppprting a team and driver. Well, before they update the points on our facebook league, have a look. I was i think 7th or 9th overall in the standings, like all the people who are playing this game on it and for this race i picked red bull as my team for the first time and see what happened, their first double DNF!! I gave up my points for a better cause.
You and Zia are working great and i'm gonna thank him seperately. He has brought great results.
I'm worried about steve though.

@zia1288

Thanks buddy. You've brought good luck and i'm hopping you'll watch the remaining raced and a few of us can enjoy a great end to the season.

@Eddie the drug dealer

Get all your good stuff in a nice gift bag and send it to steve free of cost. I'll get you more when i am. back.
Red bull engine situatiion, Vettel has used all 8 engines and has two used ones left. Webber used his last new one for this race.

@genius

I'm sorry, bro. I don't like titles decided by relibilty issues. Everyone makes their own luck but it's not nice to have it end like that. Hope you find the strength to recover from this loss

[genius83]

@zia1288
No, it may be the longest race in the recent history but in the 50's races have run for longer distances and last for longer period of time. In that era over 2 hour race was normal. If you just check the results of the races from that era they run almost close to 3 hours and in some cases going over 3-hours. Here is an example Season is 1955, you could easily see that the shortest race is 2 hour and 25 min long.

Although the longest race is about close to 9 hours if I remember correctly and that too was a wet race.

As for the your second question regarding retirements on Lap 56, 62 and 63 I was also confused when I see that but it must be something with respect to the calculation as Autosport Time sheet is showing 71 laps while as you siad it was only a 55 lap race. Although they have now updated the time sheet and so I have also updated the time sheet too.

[genius83]

@UK
Don't worry first thanks to KESC:o:P, I was been saved from seeing that blowout and Secondly, I am still confident enough that Vettel or Webber will win this title. Don't be :o, Yes I am routing for both to win the title.

I am worried about Alonso, who may need a new engine. As for championship deciding reliability issues well who knows more about it then Vettel he lost the last year title because of reliability, and the maximum of 38 points in the first 2 races this season where he was so far ahead of others that he just could relaxed and take the win by cruising.

I hope that title should goes down to the last race just as a tribute to this really exciting season and not finish in Brazil.

On a different note, what is your comments about this Tilkedrome???

@m_waqas and all others
Guys, the next race is on 7th of November and not on 31st October in Brazil with the last race in Abu Dhabi in 14th of November. Sorry for the wrong calendar for the last 3 races, as it was taken from racing-live.com which then bought by ESPN and becomes espnf1.com and they don't have this calendar on their website.
