A lot of F1 fans complain about grid penalties, but watching guys like Vettel, Hamilton, and even Ricciardo - guys with a legitimate shot at a place on the podium - make up time and set fastest laps to move up in position has been a lot of fun this season. For better or worse, the very front of the pack tends to be more quiet. If you're in front and your position is safe, you won't generally set fastest laps, you'll preserve the car.
