I'm thinking the stands being hard to see was on purpose. Usually they pan the crowd, show people waving Ferrari or etc flags, didn't see any of that this time. There have been a couple of 'sort of' crowd shots during the trophy presentation but it looks to me like it's TV and news people, not the usual mix.
I believe the whole picture was requested?

Just finished watching it. I wasn't going to be the spoiler for others who don't watch these in real time, but I see the cat is out of the bag.
I always get a kick out of Kimi and his apparent lack of emotion. Quite a contrast in the interview room between him and his teamate's expressions.
Putting aside all the political issues, it was a entertaining race.
Interesting, that Bahrain has been in revolt of over a year and our country who always like to say we try to spread democracy all over the word not only won't do anything in this case, but somehow we keep it out of the news. We bombed the crap out of Libya to spread democracy for less, but since we are fiends with Bahrain leadership we have to just pretend there is no such similar issue in that country.
Perfect that the Bob Costas of F1 drivers wins in a country run by Bob Costas'!
I'm in love with an Ecclestone!!

Lewis Hamilton did not win.
In reply to T.J.:
I know. That's why I said what I said.
I don't think the race should have happened, but damn it was a good one. Bummer for my boy Button, but I like every one on the podium so all's good. Great to see Kimi back holding some bubble, even if it was alcohol free!
Just finished watching it, ballsiest move by Vettel was maintaining a smile while shaking hands and accepting the trophy from from the Prince of Bahrain. I would have lost all joy as my digestive system imploded.
