Good start for the McLarens. Up to 3rd and 5th. Kobayashi falls back to 7th... Perez storms to 6th.

Webber and Alonso dicing out behind them... how many passes will they do between them in just one lap? Fantastic!
 
Mercs pulling away pretty fast it looks like

Wow vettel in 14th even though he started on soft tire... really looks like he's struggling.

Also new williamls livery is very nice looking ^_^
 
Un-noticed in the fracas... big loser is Sebastian Vettel... down to 14th. What happened there?

EDIT: Tree'd. :lol:

Massa is actually in the hunt with Webber and Alonso.
 
Mission accomplished for Rosberg. He's got a buffer on everyone else, and he's piling on fastest lap after fastest lap.

That Mercedes is beautifully balanced, even without the DRS.
 
The Bruno Battering Ram claims another victim. Way too hot into that first corner.

Yup. Himself. Massa doesn't seem to have suffered much from that.

Vettel doesn't seem to have much in that car. Man... the Force India, with Mercedes power, is just too fast for the Red Bull to stay with.
 
Just like I said, I knew Hamilton would make it look like Webber wasn't there and Button did it to both Webber and Kimi as well as Kamui. Sorry Anghammarad but it looks like I was right about Kimi's start, too bad.
 
Webber has an early stop. Button holding up Raikkonen, Hamilton and Perez... who are all matching Rosberg for pace, somewhat.
 
Somewhere there is an inner Adrian Newey telling Vettel "this is why we bring upgrades during the year". Shaking my head at Sebastian.
