What that race confirmed is that the Ferrari is a pig to drive on full wets ( look at Silverstone ) and the McLaren is a rocket ship. When the rain slows and they go to intermediates - they become different cars. The Carbon Industries brakes would have helped Ferrari if it had been dry, but were treacherious in the wet.

Vettel was on another planet. I am just so happy that Minardi won a race! We used to root for Minardi at the Detroit races in the mid 80's - just because they were so much the underdog. Hey, every dog has it's day.
