All aboard the Alonso train.

 

[kmag]

Hamilton pretty slow right now

Edit: lol fastest lap

Was probably harvesting for a lap or two.

 

[Xando]

Damage doesn't look too bad for a black orange flag?

 

[Lach]

Something is loose on sainz's car.

Only took them five laps to give him the black/orange flag....

 

[brotkasten]

Please no inter-team orders.

Not necessary for Sainz, because of the damage on his car.

Wow, Grojean with a DNS...

=/

First time in his career. Pretty sad.

 

[kiyomi]

God this track is so bad.

 

[brotkasten]

Damage doesn't look too bad for a black orange flag?

It's a big flapping thing on the side of the car. If it tears off, it can hit another car or helmet. It's pretty dangerous.

With that piece flopping around, it has the potential to fly off.

 

[Blastoise]

Old man Alonso holding up the line.

 

[Yagami_Sama]

What it is the odds of an incident between Kvyat and Verstappen during an overtaking attempt?

 

[nature boy]

Not necessary for Sainz, because of the damage on his car.

Kyvat is next.

 

[DrM]

Williams started this race in their fashion

 

[Frankfurter]

Ham has the softer tyre compared to Ric, doesn't he?

 

[dakun]

Ricciardo on supersoft tires is impressive. He's a good candidate for the win

 

[Lach]

lol, swiss commentator is on passive aggressive "oh look at the stewarts are in a 'everything's allowed' mood again"...

 

[DrM]

Nico doesn't care

 

[kiyomi]

Managing brakes after 8 laps. This current formula.

Hoping RIC and HAM can close the gap at least.

 

[jey_16]

its Mercedes issue time

 

[djplaeskool]

Fuck yo brakes

 

[Xando]

its Mercedes issue time

Was about to say this.

Toto after the race:

"We almost had to retire both cars because of serious issues"

 

[Yagami_Sama]

Mercedes having issues?

If both retire, Alonso would snatch a podium.

XD

 

[DrM]

Onboard footage from Merc car would show brake temp on the screen

Ferrari pit wall already planning how to screw Kimi's race

Nah they're visibly hot on the slow motion side shots. Yellow/White, that's not terribly unusual but it's a hard track on the breaks, lots of corners so there's little time to cool the breaks.

 

[Zeknurn]

They should just leave the camera feed on the Vettel shoulder cam and change away if something happens.

 

[Line_HTX]

So starting with Charmin Ultra Soft was the best strat in this place?

 

[Tempy]

zzz

 

[DrM]

We need rain or another SC

Looks like Rosberg 'brake issue' was a code sign for 'go as fast as you can'

 

[brotkasten]

One of the most boring races, as always. Shit all is happening.

 

[chadskin]

For added effect, they should use fire extinguishers on the brakes at the next pit stop.

 

[dakun]

Interesting. Sky Germany broadcasting radio messages that are not part of the worldwide feed. Thought they weren't allowed to do that

Did we ever have a wet race in singapur?
Can't remember one.

Think they said they only aren't allowed to show video not from the world wide feed iirc

 

[DrM]

#Blessed has no clue what is happening

 

[Lender]

No, never

 

[Yagami_Sama]

One stop for both Mercedes?

.@RGrosjean crew in there seats, we're not used to the car being in here too. 😞 #SingaporeGP

This has got to suck real hard just sitting there waiting the entire race.

Don't think so. There always seems to massive storms overnight though.

Chocolate Senna seems mad.

It has to. At least I can continue cleaning my apartment, while letting the race run in the background.

 

[dakun]

Lol Hamilton didn't know which tires he'll get or was that radio message just delayed

 

[Yagami_Sama]

I did not understand Red Bull strategy. I thought that Ricciardo would do more laps than the Mercedes.

 

[brotkasten]

Ferrari leading the race, wooo!

 

[Zeknurn]

KIMI IS LEADING THE RACE!!!

 

[brotkasten]

KIMI IS LEADING THE RACE!!!

NOT ANYMORE, BUT IT'S AS GOOD AS IT GETS FOR FERRARI THIS SEASON, WOOO!

 

[ElTorro]

Kvyat vs. Verstappen. Let the drama happen. Please.

 

[brotkasten]

Kvyat vs. Verstappen. Let the drama happen. Please.

Kvyat being all like "fuck that guy".

 

[Xando]

Kvyat vs. Verstappen. Let the drama happen. Please.
