Aaaand the halo prevents a quick escape.

Yep, one of the 10% of crashes where the Halo is worse than no halo.

 

[PaMu1337]

No further action on Grosjean. I would say right call.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Leclerc in 5th lol

 

[PsuPepperoni]

Leclerc is in front of Ric now?

 

[PsuPepperoni]

Verstappen issues?

 

[PzR Slim]

Hot engine!?!?!

 

[PaMu1337]

I think Verstappen is getting a bit of revenge on Ocon

 

[Jimlaad43]

Leclerc passes Raikkonen wtf?

 

[PaMu1337]

Raikkonen out! VSC

 

[niky]

Oh man, Kimi.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Kers light is red. Nobody will touch that Ferrari. The marshals will have to wait for the trained extraction people to come out and make the car safe before Kimi can get out.

 

[Robin]

Car was completely dead, nothing on the wheel display.

 

[PsuPepperoni]

just close the pit lane

 

[PeterJB]

THE FIGHT FOR SIXTH PLACE IS ON

 

[PaMu1337]

Hamilton should be able to win this with no more stop

 

[niky]

Interesting gamble for Lewis. One-stopper.

 

[PeterJB]

Wouldn't mind some desert nighttime rain.

 

[PaMu1337]

WTH was that for Hartley?

 

[PzR Slim]

Not sure about this Merc strategy for Ham.

 

[PaMu1337]

Not sure about this Merc strategy for Ham.

My first thought was that it was a good strategy, but he's losing a lot of time already.

Update on Hulkenberg: no injuries expected, but will be observed

 

[LumpiestFish]

I sort of can’t even imagine it raining in Abu Dhabi, but I’d be very intrigued if it did.

 

[PaMu1337]

If only Ericsson had shown racing like this in the rest of his career.

 

[PeterJB]

If only Ericsson had shown racing like this in the rest of his career.

After numerous rain-inducted safety cars he wins the race. You heard it here first.

If only

 

[Grayfox]

Raining downtown.

 

[PaMu1337]

Almost correct

 

[niky]

Track getting moist. Danny Ric must be smiling inside his helmet now...

Let it get just a little wetter and everyone will need to pit.

 

[FutureF1]

I had a dream that everyone crashed out in T1 except for Alonso and the Williams drivers and he went on to a dominant win... I suppose it’s too late for that to become a reality isn’t it.

 

[PaMu1337]

"Lightning reported from helicopter"

 

[niky]

Good job, Stoffel. Good job.
