How do you explain all the pole-positions by Mercedes?
I guess he's talking about the races. Okay, Vettel isn't winning every race but his lead in the championship is too big to have an exciting championship.

Not gonna happen, surely Webber's car is going to meet a KERS problem or another unexpected mechanical problem if he becomes a threat to Vettel.

Well, Singapore is ALWAYS a nice race so I'll watch. (Okay, Canada is also mostly a great race but this year was boring). And I hope it'll be more exciting with the new rules next year.
2.2s a lap faster. Yeah, that's all Vettel, nothing to do with the car

Ricciardo with his new contract obviously not giving a fuck
That SC gave Webber a shot at 2nd and a Red Bull 1-2
Clearly a Piquet thing

The last ten laps were the best of the race. WC is already decided. I hope that the next six races will be exciting, but with South-Korea and India on the calender that will be boring as hell. I hope for Abu Dhabi, Brazil, Austin and hopefully Suzuka.

Shame about the WC, but that was always going to happen so whatever.
India and Korea will be sh*t. Also expect Abu Dhabi to be rubbish as well, with 2012 being the only real good race there.
Suzuka has it's moments, but the RBR goes so well there that the race will come to nothing unless SV crashes out.
Austin is still too young to tell, but based off last year it could be good if the Mercedes in up to speed.
Which leaves Brazil, a 95% guaranteed exciting race.
Frankly, just roll on 2014 and the new regulations and teams combinations
Webber has a ten place grid penalty for Korea because he rode with Alonso. After reprimands in Bahrain and in Canada it is his third one so he has a penalty for next race. Alonso stopped the car and the Mercedes riders almost hit him so he has a reprimand. Check the video to see what happened.
@TheManxMissile: I can't say that Brazil is an exciting race. Most of the time, especially when it's dry, it's not very exciting. I hope for rain, because we haven't got a rain race this season (only a (legendary) rain qualifying in Belgium!)

Oh, I've no problem with one car being faster. Adrian Newey has always been very talented.
What I have problems with, though, is that Red Bull don't give a damn about the Restriction Cost Agreement, spending an odd 60 % more. And nobody at the FIA seems to care.

FIA won't care as long as they get money. Same thing with the Chevrolet Cruze in the WTCC for three seasons wich made race's the most boring thing ever. Tough, Muller is 10x times than any driver on WTCC.
The Chevrolet Cruze was the only car that was works supported for YEARS after each of the works supported teams won their cup and went from the championship (Alfa, BMW, SEAT).
The F1 has some kind of an cost reduction agreement (the WTCC hasn't) but the only ones hardly giving anything on it won the race today.

22 races in 2014, including the Russian Grand Prix in Sochi and the Port Imperial Circuit in New Jersey, this one still provisional. The pack will also return to the A1 Ring in Austria and to Hermanos Rodriguez in Mexico (provisional as well).
