Nice! Should be a great race this weekend. Check this from Autosport:
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/109920

Massa, however, made it clear that he will not play a supporting role to Alonso this year now he does not have a contract with the team.

"I will not race for Alonso from now on," he said.

"Right from Friday at Singapore I'll be working for myself.

"I will attack all the time, every lap. It's come the time to look after myself."

Totally great race. Predictions from alot of fans and forums was for another boring Vettel run-away. Hardly. I hope they keep Korea on the calendar. Great track with lots of room for battling and passing. Exactly what F1 needs!!

The domination from Red Bull and Vettel really make the race boring... at the front...

when seeing Vettel blasting away from the field before half of the 1st lap, it was clearly he will win the race unless his car has mechanic failure...

almost a 2sec lead after the first lap... it's not fun to watch and not fun to race against him....



the good is so far in for this season, the actions from 2nd to 12th is always exciting.

The battle between Hulkenberg, Hamilton and Alonso + Roseberg...

Then Massa, Perez, Gutiérrez and Maldonado... the move from Massa on lap 50(?) was bravo... jump from 12th to 9th...

That move shows his experience and smartness very very much...

Look forward to Suzuka
