Never mix beer and spirits, you usually end up on your rear...

Massa did indeed smash his rear

 

[Mastah]

14.9, game over.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Penalty for Max. Definitely.

 

[tomtom94]

What's this from?

 

[Mastah]

2011 Belgian GP race edit, when Massa tried to attack Rosberg into Les Combes, but got slow exit and Fernando sneaked by into Rivage and then Hamilton squeezed by before Pouhon.

I even remember song they've used, lol.

EDIT: derp, late.

Looks distressingly close to Tom Jones there.

 

[xrnzaaas]

No neck chains in 2050?

 

[DrM]

Jesus Christ, 1200bhp is completely unsafe and shouldn't be allowed. FIA shouldn't allow Honda to do further developments on that monster.

car will only go in straight line under acceleration

 

[Aiii]

Verstappen got a reprimand for holding up Bottas.

 

[Mastah]

Beautiful drift by Nando there.

 

[Zeknurn]

Quite impressive.

 

[Jezbollah]

Martini crashing into Heineken straight away.

Stirred, then shaken.

@Tom_Stallard
This little chap missed the wet paint sign. I hope someone has given him the session times.

Rumors in german tabloids that Seb could soon extend his contract until 2020, with clear #1 status in the team (so he could be able to select his slave driver)

 

[Zeknurn]

I fear for Vettel if he decides to do an Alonso. He should be negotiating for some good get out jail clauses.

Kimi to stay at Ferrari until 2020 confirmed.

Please no. I don't hate Kimi but that carton of milk is passed its expiration date.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Congrats on finally securing that Ferrari gig, Checo.

Oof.

LMP1 Copes with it pretty well.

Arrivabene already looking for a new job

 

[Line_HTX]

I hope more ground hogs show up during the race, heh heh heh.

To be fair, this was at Michigan International Speedway, but it was taken today.

Oh damnit, I saw the actual replay, haha.

On another note, looks like I can finally watch races live again instead of having to record them because fuck waking up at 7 AM.

I legit enjoyed that movie. It was fun.

 

[kharma45]

I wish I'd seen this before :lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfCBx7i6uVw

 

[Lunar FC]

Didn't know the dude from Inglorious Bastards was in it. I should give it a watch.

 

[PdotMichael]

Finnish vodka never gets old.

Still no subtitles!

Oh yeah, that one was great. DC's "I learned my German from watching DVDs" was quick.

I miss Michael.

 

[scorcher59]

Vettel extending his contract until 2020? For what? consistant 2-3 placings in the championship? Look at Fernando Alonso, that fucker's a broken man, wasted 4 years of "barely making it" at Ferrari!

 

[brotkasten]

Contracts mean nothing in F1. They are meant to be broken. Fernando signed until 2016 or 17, too.

 

[Psychotext]

I'm not sure Vettel will care as much as Alonso did. I don't think he had the same burning desire to be proven to be the absolute best.

 

[Souldestroyer Reborn]

Haha, on Tenerife, Heineken is the beer that all the young people drink, because the local beer (which is excellent) is too uncool for them, and Heineken is this cool foreign beer that advertises the most on TV.

Tenerife is San Miguel on tap no?

 

[DBT85]

I'm not sure Vettel will care as much as Alonso did. I don't think he had the same burning desire to be proven to be the absolute best.

I do feel a bit for Fernando. Quite clearly one of the best drivers in the last 15 years and despite great cars in his first stint at Macca and then several years at Ferrari with meh cars, he's only won 2 and it was with Renault!

It must be a bit gut wrenching for him to see Hamilton on 3 and Vettel on 4 when both could easily get to 5 before they retire.

he made his choices, could have worked things out at McLaren and challenged for 2008 championship, could have picked Red Bull instead of Ferrari for 2010 and would have won 4 more titles

If anything it speaks of the fans of the sport that they are, I'm sure when Alonso signed for Ferrari it was the happiest day of his profesional life, same for Vettel, but the team's been nothing but dog shit, but its a dream to drive for the red team. Although for alonso im sure there's some regret of the what happened with mclaren in 2007, to then go and dwindle in the fast fading Renault

 

[Aiii]

Best times per compound for yesterday:

FP1:
Soft        Verstappen   1:15.552

Ultrasoft   Rosberg      1:15.086

FP2:
Soft        Hamilton      1:14.941
Supersoft   Verstappen    1:15.259
Ultrasoft   Hamilton      1:14.212

 

[Humidex]

Yep, Daniel nailed it, he played Lauda to a tee...

 

[DrM]

RBR had their engine turned down a bit in FP1 and FP2

Surely all teams do this, though. No reason to strain your engines for the friday practice sessions, right?

Unless you are Ferrari...

 

[DBT85]

So did everyone else.

 

[nekkid]

Hamilton put the best time on the board in FP2, and then continued the run to do 5 additional laps.

 

[Zeknurn]

It looks like qualifying might be wet.

 

[DrM]

RBR proposed aeroscreen did not perform so well at FIA tests, Autosport reports

One of the issues that has come to light concerns the free air volume around a driver's helmet in relation to the rim of the aeroscreen.

It was discovered should a car fitted with an aeroscreen be involved in any kind of impact or accident, the helmet would collide with the rim, with the g-forces involved significantly higher.

It is also believed the overall robustness of the device at this stage was another cause for concern.

 

[Zeknurn]

It's starting to rain and Verstappen is trying to put in quick laps on ultra softs. I hope the marshals brought extra brooms.

 

[Zaru]

Can't wait for another episode of "Merc miraculously pulls out half a second over everyone else in Q3"

 

[Big Takeover]

The air pressure is keeping your head from hitting the rim? I find that hard to believe. That's what the HANS is for.
