I think going to make a sandwich might be more interesting than this...

I think one of Max Mosley's alleged sex parties would be more interesting than this

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

So this time instead of RBR messing up a pit stop their driver does it for them...cool

 

[niky]

Poor Max. Lost out on those pits.

Really nice when you can race a guy like that and not fear for your wing. Good job from both Max and Kimi.

You need to make it on your own though, no outside assistance.

I'm actually cleaning, while watching this...shows you how much watching I'm getting done.

 

[sems4arsenal]

Kimi and Max providing some actual racing.

Drive through penalty for @Robin. for outside assistance from @Samus

 

[Vinylshark]

This race is so uneventful, even the commentators don't really know what to talk about

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Rosberg seriously gaining on Hamilton!

 

[niky]

New wrinkle, Lewis struggling for pace. Can Nico get anything done, though?

Will Merc let him?

 

[SuperDiscoDaz]

Honey badger is catching on these new wheels

 

[FutureF1]

Question about the start... Why is pole on the outside? I dunno if it's just me or is pole normally on the inside going into turn 1 so the pole sitter can defend.

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

Hamilton seems to be getting slower, accidentally pushed the radio button ?

Ricci getting infos from team radio ...is this allowed ?

I'd say because it's the racing line for when going into turn 1

 

[Touring Mars]

If Lewis has a problem, will he get an order to let Rosberg through??

 

[MUSC4EVER]

His car sounds fine...

 

[SuperDiscoDaz]

I think it's the tyres causing the slower pace for Mercedes.

 

[niky]

If Lewis has a problem, will he get an order to let Rosberg through??

I doubt it. He seems just a few tenths slow... if he were a second slower, Merc might move him over.

I mean, they might attempt to, whether he would comply is anyone's guess.

Yes you can inform your driver about competitors and times, but can't tell them where they need to pick up pace and so on.

EDIT: boys might want to contain your excitement the mercs pace just shot up the 1.26 flat, thus unless Ric can go 1.25.6 he wont be catching any longer.

 

[Samus]

Zero overtakes so far barring the first corners jostling.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Mercs are now matching or doing better pace than DR, the Mercs are set up to be very conservative early on with the Softs, which is why they were heavily tested in pre season.

 

[SuperDiscoDaz]

Looks like Kvyat wants to join the Russian drugs scandal with 'speed'ing in the pit lane

 

[Dennisch]

The track needs a longer straight. 0.4 second behind someone at the beginning and still impossible to overtake at the end.

 

[SuperDiscoDaz]

Love the logic of the FIA speeding in the pit lane 5 second time penalty but someone warning a driver about a possible failure on the radio gets a drive through penalty

 

[Vinylshark]

Zero overtakes so far barring the first corners jostling.

Well, there we go. Kimi passes Fernando.

 

[Samus]

Ooh, some racing. Sort of.

 

[Ryk]

Kimi 1.6 seconds faster than race leader... did they replace his in car Vodka bottle

 

[Samus]

Mercedes doing their best to make things interesting.

 

[NW48]

Yeah this is a bit of a snoozefest so far...

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

The Hamilton threat has been delivered.

And look at that, the warning makes him go the fastest he's done on that tire or anyone else.
