I don't think Seb was actually angry at Kimi for that late race incident. I think he was laughing it off, as was Kimi. Seb was mad at the moment it happened, but these guys are in a complete mind lock when they're driving, and when they work and work to catch someone, then get run wide (whether it was their fault or the fault of the other driver), and have to do it again, they vent their anger on the radio. Just an adrenaline thing.

I think that's part of being a great driver, you take every position seriously, you get angry at every position you lose, you fight and scrap for every inch of pavement. I think that's the instinct and focus some of the backmarker drivers (a.k.a. pikers, or in NASCAR terms, danic-ers) don't have.

I think Mark Webber was a little ticked at the move Hamilton did when he ran Webber off the track while passing him, causing Webber to run into the clagg (I love that word, thank you David Hobbs).

BTW, looks like Vettel got a sporting new haircut, huh? He lost that 1970's shaggy look.



My wife still thinks he looks like the guy from Coldplay.
