yes it was and Seb drove a great race!

but it was Kimi's day, "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah... I know What I'm Doing." ya gotta love it!

the after race in the drivers lounge said it all, Kimi and Seb talking, joking, back slapping each other and Nando all by himself

Texas will be one hell of a race

That was hilarious!! I about fell out of my chair when I heard Kimi say that, LOL! He just doesn’t seem all that “mirthful” in interviews, I just chalk that up to being focused. Still, it was very funny!

the interview on the podium with DC was tooo funny also, "Yeah I caught SH!T last time for not Smiling Enough!"

and Seb saying "fukced up" and DC telling the audience that English is his second language so you'll have to excuse him was priceless...

Strange that this was posted but buried on the official F1 site. I had to google and google to dig this info up.

http://www.formula1.com/news/headlines/2012/10/13935.html

NBC Sports will broadcast the 2013 F1 season. That's channel 220 on my DirecTV.
