Lewis is choking, burden of being #blessed is too much for his shoulders

 

[Juicy Bob]

And once more, Rosberg isn't going to get the credit he deserves for out-qualifying his team mate and taking pole.

Nico's "woho" is never not going to be awkward.

If Ricciardo stays 2nd after the first lap with softs rosberg will cruise to a victory

Isnt that "woho" from his engineer?

 

[Paradise Brunch]

Just saw the result. Seems like we're going to have a fun race tomorrow.

Spoiler

I just jinx it didn't I...

 

[ElTorro]

Strong 5th place for Ferrari. And only one car had problems. Marchionne will be very satisfied with having the third-fastest car. What a success 2016 has been for them so far.

 

[DrM]

SC is guaranteed

2018 will be their year! Paddy Lowe + Lewis the #blessed coming to Maranello

Spoiler

Need to launch that rumor somehow

Nico has been great this season regardless if he wins the WDC or not.

Pirelli is not happy with downforce levels that mule cars are producing on 2017 tyre tests

Damon Hill fucking up this Horner interview royally...

Damon Hill fucking up this Horner interview royally...

What did he say?

 

[Zaru]

Nico has a real chance of turning the WDC around again and putting the pressure on Hamilton this weekend.

Didn't expect that after Hamilton's post-Spain momentum.

lmao

At least Ferrari is very consistent on their yearly collapse, regardless of drivers or who's in charge.

 

[Norwegian Rudo]

What did he say?

"Paddy Lowe says you only have one set of SS tyres"

"No we have two"

"Oh, mmm, mmm"

BTW, Paddy actually said they have only one pair of softs...

 

[spuckthew]

Hamilton has just been slow and experienced weird hydraulic problems. Rosberg has been very dominant admittedly, but it really is a weekend to take on the chin for Hamilton.

Saying that, there's still a race yet.

 

[Line_HTX]

So Baku cats, Montreal seagulls and Singapore lizards.
I'm just waiting for the inevitable cow to cross onto the Red Bull Ring.

Any footage of this Baku cat?

The most appropriate gif for Ferrari this year. Damn...

 

[Zaru]

Any footage of this Baku cat?

Also technically there was the Hungarian butterfly

[Cheeseman Battitude]

I'm a Channel 4 peasant, so only just getting up to speed with the qualifying. Not the most exciting session. The poor start in Italy has piled the pressure on Lewis, it seems.

 

[Business]

-0.7 no less, destroyed Hamilton today.

 

[TCRS]

Another F1 weekend, another Ferrari fuckery.

Every time I hear Damon speak I can't help but feel he's the Trent Dilfer of F1 pundits.

Those who follow the NFL will get the reference.

What are you talking about? Kimi has this one in the bag

 

[chadskin]

Third win in a row for Webbah. Their early struggles really come back to haunt them now.

 

[DrM]

It was raining hard during the night in Singapore, looks like the track will be green

 

[Zeknurn]

Rosberg only got pole because Hamilton gifted it to him/there was something wrong with his car.

etc.

@adamcooperF1
Looks like VET is going ahead with a power unit change. It would be his 6th V6, turbo and MGU-H, in effect with no penalty as he is 22nd

@tgruener
Ferrari will not only change the power unit but also the gearbox on Vettels car. #AMuS #SingaporeGP

Almost a complete new car for Vettel.

 

[bobnowhere]

Almost a complete new car for Vettel.

Still a Ferrari.

 

[Nyx]

Still a Ferrari.

Would be pretty awesome if he turns up in a Lamborghini today.

 

[sportzhead]

Still a Ferrari.

Hahahaha.

Have a feeling I will be asleep 30 minutes after the race starts. Modern boring F1 + Singapore's no passing circuit - Singapore's pretty lights and city can only keep my attention for so long. The early morning US start doesn't help either.

 

[kiyomi]

Hahahaha.

Yeah, I have no idea why people think this track is interesting. It's not a proper night race and the circuit itself is long, tedious and slow. With a SC and the race pace of 2016 F1 cars, we'll be getting close to the 2 hour limit.

Anyway, I hope we do actually get a decent race. I'm praying that Rosberg makes a bad start because I think that's the only way we get something interesting.

 

[Zeknurn]

@tgruener
Not a good start for McLaren. Alonsos car fell off the jack during pitstop practice. Hope the diffuser is ok. #AMuS

Ahaha.

Brundle taking to Bernie on Sky.

...and saying absolutely nothing at all.

Lewis should stop visiting fashion shows and hanging out with Kanye, he can do that after retirement. Just concentrate on Racing Lewis, just look at Tiger, you cannot hang out with Barkley and play topnotch golf at the same time.

Yeah it's really impacted his career so far....

 

[Zeknurn]

Rosberg is going to have a terrible start and Hamilton will take the lead. Book it.

 

[brotkasten]

Rosberg is going to have a terrible start and Hamilton will take the lead. Book it.

And with that, Hamilton is going to take the win, because nothing really happens on the track, aside from some incidents due to driver errors.

 

[norinrad]

Not yet, but it could.

 

[kmag]

Yeah, you'd think it's pretty much Rosbergs turn for the weird merc start gremlins. Would probably be a more interesting race if both mercs bogged down at the start which isn't beyond the realm of possibility.

 

[Xando]

Chase Carey talking about bringing F1 back to the fans.

After years of Bernie i don't really trust him

 

[Goldrusher]

I have a feeling this will be a great race.

 

[OriginalThinking]

Not yet, but it could.

A lot of things could happen. It doesn't mean they will happen. There's a lot of evidence from the last 2 years that says that Lewis having a good time off the track hasn't impacted on his ability to win titles. In fact, for all know it might help him.

Rosberg complaining about the clutch "underengaging" on the practice starts.

He's in an absolute rocket ship and his only real opponent is a bit of a mental midget when the pressure is on. He could be snorting coke of hookers arsecheeks literally two seconds before jumping into the car for a formation lap and he'd still have won the last two championships.

 

[brotkasten]

Not yet, but it could.

As long as it doesn't, he doesn't need to change anything.

 

[nature boy]

I expect fireworks.

 

[DrM]

Nice steering wheel displays

Grosjean is pissed

 

[Zeknurn]

I think Grosjean was spared from having to drive that shitbox.

 

[PdotMichael]

Outside of the shitty pay drivers everyone could win titles in that rocket ship. It isn't even like the powerful Red Bull cars which kind of sucked in dirty air - see Webber's struggles.
