2014 Formula 1 Gran Premio de España Pirelli

[ZEROX]

I switch on the telly and see Pastor has a penalty. What did that fool do this time?

Just another normal dose he does every weekend...


Agrassively overtake Ericsson and almost cause a crash between both of them. Well, he catch an air for second.

Will Buxton said Maldonado blamed his issue yesterday on the wall or the corner. Then Will asked simply "is it ever your fault?"

 

[niky]

Rather early stop for Vettel. A bit desperate for separation from Button? He's going to have a lot of backmarkers to work around on that exit.

 

[Grayfox]

Why is it me or does it sound like they call that Russians name as "fiat"

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

So Ric is in but will most likely leap frog Bottas

 

[Bo]

They pronounce it "K-fiat", when most say "Kiv-yaht".

 

[niky]

Ricciardo with a successful undercut on Bottas. Whew. Still an eternity away from the Mercs.

 

[PsuPepperoni]

Kimi's finally doing his job

 

[sems4arsenal]

Why does Alonso get the undercut?

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Why does Alonso get the undercut?

Cause Ferrari

 

[sems4arsenal]

Cause Ferrari

Can't imagine he'd be too pleased.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Can't imagine he'd be too pleased.

I don't blame him, and he probably realized it hence why he made sure it didn't work.

 

[ECGadget]

I swear the feed said Rosberg just won...

 

[Spurgy 777]

Can't imagine he'd be too pleased.

Didn't work for Alonso anyway, and it's possible Raikonnen chose to pit 2nd knowing they would come out in traffic.

 

[ShiftingGears]

I swear the feed said Rosberg just won...

I did see the victory graphic come up as well, didn't see the name.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Is it me or do both Merc drivers have the same race engineer?

Good job Grosjean

 

[PsuPepperoni]

🤬 yes

 

[ZeroTheNorth]

Vergne is out, exhaust issue by the sounds of it.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Vergne is out, exhaust issue by the sounds of it.

In other words a typical weekend for Vergne at STR. Poor guy can't catch a break.

Love the Merc radio chatter... Merc is really, really doing its best to keep the racing fair. Good job, boys.

And... don't want to jinx it... but Rosberg looks like he can win. He's outpacing Lewis, and is in good position to pass him in the pitstops!

Well Lewis is jumping up the pace even though loose

I did see the victory graphic come up as well, didn't see the name.

Oddly enough, it showed the correct distance, and time taken so far. Someone pressed a wrong button xD

 

[niky]

Double-edged sword. If he pushes too hard, he'll have to pit that much sooner. And there's also backmarkers in the way, so perhaps that's what's holding Nico up.

So... maybe I jinxed it... sorry Nico.

EDIT: Then again... Nico is on the hard tires... in the last stint, he will again have the better tires... could this end in another battle royale between the two?

 

[ECGadget]

Looks like the primes are holding their own against the options! But it looks like some of the teams are having issues with balance?

 

[Grayfox]

Possible brake issues for someone.

 

[ZEROX]

Looks like Kamui is retired by the looks of it.

 

[Fuzzy]

Mercs dominating again...

 

[ZeroTheNorth]

More lock ups for Rosberg.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

...So twice in this stint Nico has burnt up the tires. I thought he was being smooth but not I see he's trying hard once again. Just hand it to him why don't you geez, Rosberg

 

[niky]

Some really scruffy overtakes going on here...
