2014 UBS Chinese Grand Prix

[ZEROX]

Early retirement for Sutil.

 

[Brutaka]

Sutil is out

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Sutil first retirement...three DNF's in a row for him..

 

[prisonermonkeys]

Did I hear the announcers right?

Mercedes are going to take RBR to high court over their aero package?

No, you didn't hear them right.

McLaren are taking Red Bull to the High Court over a contract dispute. McLaren claim they have a contract with one of Red Bull's staff members to join McLaren, but Red Bull are blocking the move.

That news of Rosberg, may save Ricciardo.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Rosberg v Riccairdo for fourth!...

 

[sems4arsenal]

They just showed four views there was no room to the left of Vettel, but the room to the right was closing and the quickness of the move was a bad idea considering how quickly the wedge would have closed.

There was room when Massa made the move, Alonso turned right after Massa was already there. It's a racing incident and both are to blame but Alonso more from me.

whats with rosbergs front left? Why doesnt it have the yellow markings? looks weird

I wasn't saying it wasn't one. But taking the racing line which Alonso did and not expecting a car to try and split you and Vettel doesn't make it nearly his fault, more so Massa but I'd say not enough to punish any one. Thus a racing incident.

Because Bottas and him tangled.

Contact with Bottas at the start.

Problem for Massa at the pit stop!

 

[05XR8]

Shucks for Massa!

 

[Brutaka]

Massa got a pit problem
He's out of the pits

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Disaster for Massa! still in the pit!!

 

[sems4arsenal]

That's Massa's race done.

 

[CarBastard]

What in the love of god just happened in the Williams box???

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Can't help but laugh

 

[mattythedog]

Damn, that sucks for Massa. That's the end for any chance of a good result.

 

[GTPorsche]

A fantastic pit botch by Williams.

 

[CinnamonOD]

They clearly hired Lewis's pit crew from when he was at McLaren.

 

[m8h3r]

Think maybe the smack on the side for Massa damaged something that holds the wheel on?

 

[CarBastard]

It appeared as if they didn't have the tyres ready, but what was the deal with not being able to put the tyre in place? It seemed as if they had a problem with the wheel nut or something.

 

[sems4arsenal]

Could it be related to his incident with Alonso?

 

[05XR8]

This is a bad move by RB for Daniel. Ohhhhh man. The RB are good down the stright. We'll see what happens.

 

[CinnamonOD]

Could it be related to his incident with Alonso?

He hit his front left with alonso's rear right

I think it can not be that

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Alonso v Vettel should be interesting!

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Damn that Ferrari is quick, it took them long enough

 

[CarBastard]

Think maybe the smack on the side for Massa damaged something that holds the wheel on?

Could it be related to his incident with Alonso?

The way I saw it, Alonso and Massa bumped their front tyres but Massa's issue was with the left rear tyre. Could be wrong though, hard to judge without a replay.
