Oops just checked I was thinking of Baku and 378 by Bottas claimed Williams.

He did. But because of a stupid Speed Trap position, it doesn't count as an official record

 

[SuperDiscoDaz]

Both. 1-2 for RBR.

Or that with the honey badger in front of max

If they get so far, I'll hope the give us an epic battle, and I wouldn't care who takes first.

Edit

Perez must really like that rear end of the Williams.
And can they please stop showing one of the Williams sisters? Who gives a **** that she is watching her phone?

Edit 2

The Williams' mentioned above are unrelated, btw.

I'd prefer Daniel to get 1st through pure pace and not Max being given it by a stupid team order but before we get to that we need to have a couple of Mercedes driven engine failures

That team order was given the other way around in Germany, so this one was returning a favor.

Vettel might have a chance for podium if he can nurse the medium.

Ricciardio was ahead on a strategic punt but didn't have the pace to match Verstappen... it made sense for Verstappen to be released. It's how it goes in a team game.

Fair enough then for that but I don't like team orders full stop. The drivers are paid to race and not moan to others that they can't get the job done with the same tools.

 

[mustafur]

Unless the Soft is a big step up on the Medium then Ricciardo lap 1 stop has probably cost him.

 

[Dennisch]

Vettel might have a chance for podium if he can nurse the medium.

There isn't any wear and tear on any of the medium tyres so far. I really think we've seen all stops already. Ricciardo might be pushing the limit towards the end though.

Edit

And having said that, Kimi comes in for fresh Mediums.

But then again, he was complaining about his tyres.

Not at all, Vettel did enough to get in front of his team mate. Only chance he has at podium is if the top guys wreck or have other problems.

Vettel just did fastest lap, 1:22.5xxx on a 15 laps old Medium, not sure if he's going to pit again.

 

[Dennisch]

Rosberg is feeling the Max pressure!!

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

That's cause the tires aren't having any wear on this surface and due to the track cooling as we speak, they speeds are coming up. Rosberg has much older tires and is exchanging fast laps.

 

[SuperDiscoDaz]

Nearly a brown pants moment for Rosberg with that attempted overtake

 

[mustafur]

Redbull have been out foxed By Ferrari and are probably screwed now.

 

[Jimlaad43]

I knew Max was going to dive there. I could also see him running wide a mile off too

 

[Dennisch]

Ricciardo to the soft tyre!

Edit

Rosberg isn't going to fight for first. Blah.

 

[Tired Tyres]

Corr. That was nearly a pass for position.

 

[mustafur]

Wait how did Ricciardo get out ahead of Kimi?

 

[SuperDiscoDaz]

You know they are getting desperate for overtake action when they're showing the cars battling for last place.

 

[Dennisch]

Perez still behind Massa. I don't know if that's hilarious or depressing.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Quite the opposite, it's nice to see them for once.

 

[Tired Tyres]

I'm sure this race is actually longer than the WEC 6 hours of actual racing.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Wehrlein for DotD?

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Good pit stop

 

[Dennisch]

What race?

Edit
VETTEL IS BACK! GET OUT OF THE WAY!

BLUE FLAG!

 

[SuperDiscoDaz]

Yeah it's nice to see them but these cars just are too boring and not conducive to good racing. I'm not having a go at the teams just the formula

 

[SuperDiscoDaz]

Wehrlein for DotD?

Has anyone told the Dutch not to vote today

 

[GTFan24]

Gee i can't wait for Verstappen to somehow win DOTD again
