Heard over the Team Radio in Sepang

Team Engineer to Lewis: Warning...over weaving...


Lewis was amazing in China. He started 19th (he wasn't able to go through Q2 together with the 2 Ferrari boys) but after the first few laps, he was fighting with Petrov for the 10th place. Though he was given a warning after overtaking Petrov because he was overweaving. Petrov, rookie that he is followed Lewis in every turn that he made haha. I was seriously scared that Lewis might still get a podium finish. Good thing Sutil held his place and he and Lewis finished 5th and 6th respectively.


Team Engineer to Massa: Good boy...Beautiful!


This was after Massa overtook Button and got 7th place. As I mentioned early on, Massa was also at the back of the grid at 21st. He was at the back of Lewis and just like Lewis he overtook a lot of cars after the 1st and second corner. Felipe was right behind Lewis before he overtook Petrov. And then after the first round of pit stops he was behind Button who he managed to overtook with the encouragement of his engineer. It was really beautiful hahahaha!



Vettel to Team: That is sweeeetttt!!!


Yes, yes it was indeed sweet! After getting the pole positions and then not getting any podium finishes for the first two races, and then qualified 3rd in the Sepang GP, Vettel's win was absolutely sweet!!! He managed to overtake his teammate Webber and Rosberg, who were 1st and 2nd on the grid, after the first corner and he took the lead all the way to the chequered flag! Whoppee! Star Sports actually did a comparison of his first three races last year and this year, where last year he also had bad results for the first two races and then finished 1st in the third round (Chinese GP) and it turned out he did win the third race again this 2010. Yey yey yey!!! Now he's tied up with Alonso on the driver's championship with 37 points. Hoping for more podium finishes in the upcoming races!
