Formula 1 Gran Premio de España Santander 2012

[niky]

About time for Hamilton's last stop. The question is whether anyone behind him is on a three stopper?

 

[Jsoccer9]

Is Hamilton set for the rest of the race on his current tires?

 

[Liquid]

Alonso is using a fair amount of kerb on the outside of turn one. He's really going for it.

He could finish, but the time he will lose in performance drop off, will be about the same as pitting. Maybe a bit less.

 

[Watchman]

This is so exciting.

 

[ZEROX]

Alonso commit a little bit too much on the chicane.
Otherwise...

 

[niky]

It'll be nigh on impossible for Hammy to finish is race on those tires, not unless everyone behind him is asleep at the wheel... But if he does make it... Amazing.

Pastor doing an amazing job... Man, that crowd is excited every time Alonso bunches up on Pastor down the straight... But we all know the game he's playing by now... And the team tells Alonso to uncork the engine to make it even more fun...

 

[GTPorsche]

This is getting exciting.

 

[Biffy]

As long as either Maldonado or Raikkonen wins, I'll be happy.

 

[ZEROX]

... And the team tells Alonso to uncork the engine to make it even more fun...

...and make it blow, please. Thank you.

 

[dhandeh]

Has Kimi got something to say about this?






And if he has it will be a monosyllabic answer.

 

[niky]

Vettel on Button, does it easy. Should have no problem with Hammy.

 

[GTPorsche]

Kimi might catch up by the end of the race.

 

[Liquid]

The Kimster!

Has Alonso gone over the cliff? Out of the DRS.

 

[dhandeh]

Ginsters pulling away, has Alonso blown it?

 

[ZEROX]

Kimi is too far, so, 3rd place sealed for him. Unless both of those leaders crash.

Bang wheel for Kamui and Rosberg. YEAH!
GO KOBAY!

 

[niky]

Nico up to his tricks again. Kamikaze Kobayashi versus Schumi Junior... Fantastic!

 

[Watchman]

Kobayashi!

 

[TyrrellRacing]

Kimi is too far, so, 3rd place sealed for him. Unless both of those leaders crash.

Don't rule him out yet, if these tyres "drop off the cliff"....

 

[Liquid]

Kobayashi doing his thing.

This is a good race.

 

[Christian_C]

I hope KR gets close enough to FA so that PM can run away

 

[Watchman]

Alonso now about 2 seconds behind Maldonado.

 

[PAWEL17]

Alonso dropped back!! C'mon Pastor! This is too good to be true.

 

[ZEROX]

Don't rule him out yet, if these tyres "drop off the cliff"....

With 5 laps to go? I'm not so sure about that but we'll see.

 

[Liquid]

So we're looking at 5 Grands Prix and 5 different winners?

Is this 1982?

 

[GTPorsche]

Maldonado is already pulling a gap.

 

[niky]

Ginsters pulling away, has Alonso blown it?

Alonso wasn't counting on having Maldo on a three stopper... I think he's pulling back to shade the three stopper.

Could Hammy be on a two stopper? Amazing!

 

[Watchman]

I don't think that Räikkönen will have a chance.

Let's see...

 

[niky]

Hammy not making it easy on Vettel... He has every right to... Racing for position on a two-stopper... With only three laps to go!

 

[Demon Drone]

So we're looking at 5 Grands Prix and 5 different winners?

Is this 1982?

And 5 manufactures too!
