2011 German Grand Prix

[ZEROX]

Karun spin again..

 

[C-ZETA]

Vettel's brakes are OK

 

[niky]

At least he didnt end up facing the wrong way, *points at Vettel and laughs*.

Could be worse, he could have done a Chandok... Or a Heidfeld...

 

[AlphaAndius]

Oooh!!! Force India spun out!! But recovered fairly well, couldnt see who though.

 

[dhandeh]

Lewis gets track position after pits!

 

[C-ZETA]

BOOM! Webber is now down behind Hamilton. But blue smoke?

 

[niky]

Decisive pits... Hamilton pips Alonso! Now Alonso is in trouble from Webber... Hamilton may just win this...

 

[Alex p.]

Hamilton...are you a wizard?

 

[dhandeh]

Outstanding overtake, round the outside, and no contact!

That's he overtook with no contact, wheres the Lewis haters now!

 

[ZEROX]

Outside lane overtake and wide track...
Bad defend from Alonso.

 

[Mike Rotch]

Brave move by LH 👍 But i think the undercut on tyres may come back to haunt RBR and McLaren going to hards...

Here.

Just jokin'.

Looks like Hamilton just wants this win more than the others. Doing fantastic. Was hoping I could see Mark take a win, but I'll be happy with anything right now. Great race.

 

[AlphaAndius]

Wha?? How did Alonso end up with cold tires? Are not pit crews responsible to insure to that the tires they install are warm?

 

[dhandeh]

Still dry on circuit, no sign of rain yet.

 

[Grayfox]

I am waiting to see if hamiltons engine goes boom! since their was the blue smoke.

 

[Alex p.]

Still dry on circuit, no sign of rain yet.

Unfortunately...

 

[ZEROX]

Button out. Hydraulic prob.

 

[dhandeh]

Button out with hydraulics.

 

[Grayfox]

Button has hydrolics issue and is out.

 

[Alex p.]

Oh. Button out of the race.

 

[C-ZETA]

Button's got problems AGAIN

Also what action with Hamilton and Alonso! Amazing!

 

[niky]

Hamilton...are you a wizard?

When did he stop being one? still, that Ferrari isn't great on cold tires... So Hamilton took full advantage of that. This is turning out to be a great race for Lewis.

Poor Button, though... Hydraulic failure... Second race in a row he's retired!

 

[AlphaAndius]

Button out. Hydraulic prob.

Noooooooo!!!!! T-T

Hopefully, its not a common mclaren fault, keep it going Lewis.

 

[Hollidog]

Wha?? How did Alonso end up with cold tires? Are not pit crews responsible to insure to that the tires they install are warm?

Well they only heat them to 100C in the blankets, then they sit in the pit lane for a few seconds, then they drive all the way down the pit lane. So all in all they probably have about 20-25 seconds of little to no temp being put into them.

It won't be but if an engine problem will.

Warm doesn't mean racing temperature...

The Ferrari has trouble putting heat into the tires...

Nice battle shaping up between Nico and Kamui...

 

[ZEROX]

Nice defend from Kobay. 👍

 

[dhandeh]

Great defensive move by Kobayashi.
