Seb has this in the bag.

[Evil]

Is it cause I'm black?

[ResLo]

What a douche..

I reckon swap Hamilton with Webber. Then you have two teams with suited team mates.

R7 F1 Canada Grand Prix

Epic rain delayed race.
Button wins in the last lap after pressuring Vettel into a mistake.
Webber 3rd after being hit from behind by Hamilton and dropping back.

[rec]

What a race. So glad I stayed up through the two hour rain delay.

Races are becoming so unpredictable, especially when cars can pit twice as much as others, and be running last, yet still win.

The only near certainty is that Vettel will probably win most races.
