Simulating his dad's career

That wouldn't work too bad for him.

 

[Elvin Atombender]

That Sauber-drift was nice.

Thanks for the gifs SunhiLegend!

 

[Hasney]

Damn, they were some very similar Mercedes laps.

 

[DrM]

Damn, they were some very similar Mercedes laps.

And I think they have some more in reserve

That camera on Grosjean's car is scary

 

[Juicy Bob]

Well. There it is.

 

[SunhiLegend]

 

[nny]

Love the camera on Grosjean's car...reminds me of some old school lap videos.

 

[RaySpencer]

Shit is Quali on right now?

 

[spuckthew]

I know they only use race laps for lap records, but both Mercs are six tenths quicker than the lap record with that.

Spoiler

Something something softer tyres, but it's still damn impressive.

 

[Mastah]

Nando

 

[nny]

Alonsooooo

 

[djplaeskool]

Alonso is in there.

 

[EnlightenedMint]

No Perez

 

[DrM]

Hulk kicks Perez out

 

[Mastah]

Dat Q3 joy.

 

[Tempy]

I have Hamilton for pole.

 

[Juicy Bob]

This Alonso guy is pretty good. Maybe Ferrari should think about hiring him when Kimi goes.

 

[DrM]

Button wasted Q3 with that lockup in the hairpin

 

[Zeknurn]

Looks like another as expected qualifying.

 

[Samiad]

Love the camera on Grosjean's car...reminds me of some old school lap videos.

Yep! Very nostalgic.

 

[Interferon]

This Alonso guy is pretty good. Maybe Ferrari should think about hiring him when Kimi goes.

He'd be a good slipstream-maker for Vettel in qualifying sessions, just like Massa was back in the days

 

[Mastah]

 

[nny]

That difference between the Mercs...and to the rest of the field.

Toto: " we got lucky with some favourable winds, we had nearly no power in the car"

 

[Lemonte]

looks like Grosjean sits very close to front axis.

 

[Igo]

Strange decision to put the camera on the left when we have the wall of champions at this track.

 

[spuckthew]

That FOV is horrible.

 

[djplaeskool]

These Wall impact replay reactions are gold.
I love F1 commentary.

 

[SunhiLegend]

 

[aspiegamer]

Remember in 2014 when everyone was terrified about how slow the new engines were? I was! Yeah. Their massive targets for 2017 started on the assumption of much less power than they have now. So, fastest cars ever next year? Next week is going to be ridiculous.

 

[nny]

Lol, rosberg

 

[Psychotext]

German Jesus nearly saved us... for our sins.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Not bad from Vettel.

 

[ElTorro]

Great to see that German Jesus is pretty close.

 

[Tempy]

Good lap by Vettel.

 

[Humidex]

Rather self critical there from Seb!

 

[Hasney]

Goddamn, that's driving that Red Bull right on the edge to survive the wall bump.

 

[SunhiLegend]

 

[RaySpencer]

Whew!

Glad Rosberg didnt take it away from Hamilton! Glad Vettel is getting closer! and glad Ricciardo bested Verstappen!

 

[DrM]

Good lap by Vettel.

Great to see that German Jesus is pretty close.

Probably they turned the engine to the extreme+track evolution did its part

Mercedes is still controlling the rest. Oh, they did not bring the planned engine upgrade to Canada, they will probably use it in Austria or even later.

 

[ramparter]

Both RB and Fer close to Merc on Canada makes me extremely happy. F1 geeting interesting again...

 

[Zeknurn]

I nodded off during Q3. Lets hope the race is more exciting and it rains tomorrow or it's going to be another top 3 snoozefest

 

[Loris146]

Insane lap by Vettel. Insane.

 

[ramparter]

I was never afraid of the V6 engines + turbo, just the fact that teams were limited at the same time with these token rules.

 

[apotema]

Strange decision to put the camera on the left when we have the wall of champions at this track.

I think it's better that way since it's a clockwise circuit

 

[LordAmused]

Wow. My home country GP is by far my favorite. It's fast and spectacular. It's going to be even better tomorrow, as they will have to battle against weather, possibly rain and 50kmh wind gusts.

 

[SunhiLegend]

I wouldnt be so sure about that, Merc so far seem to have the most reliabilty issues of all the front runners, they cant afford to push their engines too much especially in race...

 

[RaySpencer]

After Hamilton gets his 4th championship (knock on wood!), I would love Vettel and Hamilton to be on the same team to battle it out for their 5th.

What? Ferrari is far worse than merc in terms of engine reliability.
