It'll get more interesting by the end of the race, as always, with all the tyre shenaningans.

At least Pastor admitted his jump start.

He blamed something in the engine of his car

He blamed something in the engine of his car

What, the throttle?

 

[Famine]

Braked hard, late, locked up and then made a last minute call to stop and got disqualified? That's pretty harsh.

More or less. He put himself on the left to force the overtaking car to the inside, then dived across the front of it to pit.

What, the throttle?

The clutch, according to the interview on Sky.

 

[Grayfox]

What, the throttle?

clutch button on the wheel.

 

[SuperDiscoDaz]

I hope Pastor's full name is Pastor "It is never my fault" Maldonado with some of these excuses he uses.

Hopefully.

[JosVerstappen]

This race needs alonso and ham :/

THX crashjean.

 

[CinnamonOD]

I don't remember, he said it was very sensitive, so maybe

EDIT: He blamed this

He said "arbol de levas", I don't know how it is said in english

Nice move by karthikeyan

 

[Mike Rotch]

Webber's crew flirting with a dangerous pit release on his stop now...

 

[Watchman]

This race needs alonso and ham :/

THX crashjean.

I agree.

I see he learned a lot from Rubinho.

That's pretty pathetic, if it behooves one to impede a competing driver within the bounds of the rules, then surely one should do so. I mean what is a driver expected to do, yield because he/she might pit?

Yes. Put it this way, Michael would have probably saved time had he not defended the position.

 

[ZEROX]

Narain out with a bang.

 

[cgr-10]

Really hope that doesn't bring a safety car out.

 

[m8h3r]

That's steward running was funny

 

[ZEROX]

Nope it won't. Not serious enough to bring out any.

 

[SuperDiscoDaz]

It looks like it's not just the Red Bull's hitting the limiter.

 

[otakukid96]

Really hope that doesn't bring a safety car out.

No, I think he is far enough away from the track. Plus, at Hungary, he was broken down right next to the track and there was no SC.

 

[ZEROX]

Renault engine brothas to be precise.

 

[SuperDiscoDaz]

Kimi does a Webber at Eau Rouge

 

[Nessy]

Beaut! of a pass by Kimi
The overhead view, was like watching a UFO change direction.

*UFO... I see them all the time. *

 

[CinnamonOD]

Nice move by Raikkonen

Nice battle for 4th place too

 

[ZEROX]

Dat balls of carbon fibre. 👍

 

[Grayfox]

Camshaft is what google says.

 

[LancerEvo7]

Brilliant move by Kimi.

 

[Demon Drone]

Brilliant move by Kimi. Great use of the DRS.

 

[ZEROX]

Nope, no drs was use.
Just ballz.
