Thats my thoughts. There was no epic tension of a battle of years past. Will Webber overtake or can Alonso drive a brilliant defensive last 5 laps
? With DRS you no the answer to both.

I no I am going to be hated and given a bashing for saying that.

Was Alonso managing his tyres for that stint or was that his true pace? It was great magnificent overtake. Alonso gave breathing space and still tried to fight back.

People say how great this year's tyres are yet if you're on the wrong tyre at the wrong moment you're a sitting duck.

Piquet was in a similar situation in 1987 and yet it produced one of the all time great overatakes.
