They all do. No way they run engines on full power, especially with added fuel weight and with the engine stress with an extra race this year too.

Yep, even Button up front would have been running a low power engine map most of the race. It always seems Red Bull give Vettel more power when he is behind Webber as well

Got an easy $200 on Button's victory, would have put more on given his certainty to win, but wasn't sure if McLaren wouldn't leave the covers on the cooling air intake, or forget to put a wheel on

Great for the championship race though, Red Bull where still strong race pace wise, they just suffer from top end speed (wrong gearing this time I think though).
