Could be a classic!

 

Could be a car park around the castle. One crash in there and the whole field will wind up stuck.

 

BBC radio said highly probable 1stop.

 

Its barely one car wide. Anyone trying a move there should be referred to a doctor

 

Nico Rosberg this evening:

Anyone think it's worth Hamilton starting on softs from the pitlane instead of starting 10th with those options he trashed in Q2? He should take second either way but he has no chance of beating Rosberg on the same strategy. Really **** performance from him today by the way, crashing was the icing on the cake but he must have ****ed up four laps today, most of them under no pressure at all given his car advantage.

 

Little bit of conspiracy here, anyone else notice the red flag for the session because of Hamiltons car did not come out until Rosberg had completed his lap? Good 30 - 40 secs had passed between these events. Before that Rosberg had not put in a representative time............

Just saying............

 

Careful ASC... You're dangerously close to Hamilot territory there.

 

I think Hamilton had already given Rosberg plenty of help.

 

Good job by Nico today, he was on it from first lap of Q1 and really put pressure on Lewis, who, quite frankly, cracked.

As others have said, as long as Lewis keeps it out of the walls, easy to make up places here and should be at least second.

 

It's all been far too reserved on here today, some bait has got to be hung out!

 

I smell the bullshit coming out of Charlie Whitings control booth. I would have liked to see Perez win pole. Oh well.

 

*laughs*

 

Hamilton should start on softs, gamble on a safety car and pressure Flimsy Nico into another fumble.


If Merc don't win here they need their heads looking at.

A whole second in their back pocket FFS.

 

Getting ready for work. Finish before race start so brimming with excitement.

 

Fia →→→Mia (Mercedes international assistance). Lewis will be provided with a similarly worn set of tyres ahead of the gp.

 

They let rosberg finish his lap before red flagging and giving Hamilton circular tyres. Been a let off of a gp so far for Merc. Odds on both going out at the first corner today?better hope they've fixed their starts.

 

Yeah yesterday was so obvious. Today even more so. Oh well. Lets hope Danny Ric and Seb make the jump.

 

They must have deemed it a safety issue then?

Seems strange to me, it was his mistake that led to them being flatspotted!
