yes it's a drivers aid just like the KERS is, but... my objection is only the PASSING car can use it and NOT the defender and to me that is simply wrong on a couple levels

i dint see the Q so i don't know what happened but the kid prolly will pull away unless there's mayhem on the track

In the post-Q interview Vettel mentioned something about his brakes. Now, I know the engineers told him to stop the car immediately, so there must a problem there. The Red Bull "invincibility" seems to run hot-and-cold, LOL; sometimes bulletproof, sometimes full of gremlins!

I've checked the official F1 site, but there's no word on any RB problems or what, if anything, will happen to Vettel for not making it back to the pits.

I don't think Hamilton has a chance at the championship and Webber might statistically, but not realistically. That leaves Alonso and Vettel. It seems like Ferrari is struggling, so Alonso is going to have to pull a Mansell or Prost or Senna this race or at Austin (where it could be decided).

I hope Abu Dhabi is an interesting race. The past 2 or 3 have been pretty boring with Vettel running away with it all from the very start.
