The BBC commentary team were trying to work out who was shadowing who... they even had some suggestions from Ferrari that they were all shadowing McLaren - which is clearly a fib because McLaren had no chance of catching either car.
Best explanation is that both teams made late calls to pit on the same lap. Vettel was very close to Alonso at that point and by the time he saw Alonso pull in he was already committed. Personally speaking, in that split-second, I would have liked to see Vettel decide to stay out, but it is a brave driver that over-rules the pit wall.
I was surprised they took a risk on Webber's strategy. It paid off, in part due to a couple of good passes, but when you are leading the WDC, surely a safe 5th is a better bet than a gamble on somewhere between 3rd and 8th?
I was surprised too but having looked at it again after the race it could have worked out to have been a brilliant move.
If there had been another safety car before lap 20, he would have been in the lead effectively.
As you say though getting past Schumacher, in particular, was crucial for him.

I'm sure Porsche would like it to happen that way, especially if Vettel is still at the wheel. Not sure that Red Bull would want to take a risk on a brand new engine package, especially if they remain front runners through 2011/2012.

still RB will pay much for them to come in, I assume, as RB has this weak point. Keen to know what Williams will do. They diliked the way BMW stepped on their tow, ...

Webber probably wont be around by then so whether they team up with RedBull or not doesnt interest me much.

In anyways, Webber has got two fresh engines to run for FP1, FP2 and for FP3, meaning that it will count for that magic, "Third time Run the Best Output (TRBO)" theory?
Getting more curous abot the next move from Red Bull. No news good news? My guts says that The team will adopt Lasse Fair...?

The team has announced it has agreed a two-year extension to its current partnership with French engine manufacturer Renault.
In recognition of the renewed partnership, Red Bull Racing will feature greater Renault visibility starting from this weekend’s Brazilian Grand Prix. The Renault logo will appear on the noses of both RB6s and its name will be on the visors of both Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber’s race helmets.
Christian Horner, Red Bull Racing Team Principal, said: “We’re pleased to announce this extension. We have always enjoyed a very straightforward relationship with Renault and they have supported us extremely fairly during the past four seasons, contributing to our 13 grand prix victories so far. The relationship continues to evolve and we look forward to working with them during our 2011 Formula One World Championship campaign.”
