Well, this sucks.

xxi-vii:

RIP to the Canadian Grand Prix marshal who died after being run over by a crane while taking care of Gutiérrez’s car. 

For all my complaining about Paul di Resta’s complaining that he felt entitled to a McLaren drive this season, he’s ahead of both McLaren drivers in the standings - “stuck” driving for Sahara Force India.

How about that.

Overall, that was really disrespectful of the fans to boo like that.

Then again, this is the same sport that gave us “Fans celebrating Michael Schumacher’s Broken Legs” and “Racist idiots mocking Lewis Hamilton” unfortunately.

All that podium ceremony was missing was half of the fans chanting “Let’s Go Vettel!” and the other half chanting “Vettel Sucks!” while Sebastian has Lewis Hamilton in a headlock.

In case you were still convinced that Toro Rosso made a grave mistake hiring Jean-Eric Vergne last year, his 6th place finish today was the best for the team since Sebastian Vettel’s final race for STR in Brazil ‘08.

The good so far:

  • Alonso making moves
  • Massa, Grosjean and Di Resta shrugging off subpar qualifying runs
  • Jean-Eric Vergne proving he’s not just a seat filler

The bad:

  • Williams drivers sinking like stones out of the points
  • Kimi’s points streak in jeopardy
  • Hulkamania no longer running wild for Sauber brother

The Vettel:

  • God damn this guy is quick
