Championship is pretty much over now unless Hamilton has bad luck.

Taken a while, but we got there in the end.

 

[mrklaw]

If they can get his car working, its not the end of the weekend - the top teams have shown they can get into solid points and even podiums from back end starts

 

[Razgreez]

So everyone on Softs is faster.

Softs have been the GOAT tyre all season long

 

[nny]

The ending of the season is getting boring quickly, championship-wise.

 

[DrM]

Looks like new PU is simply too powerful for turbo charger to work properly

That sounded like turbo failure from on board

[John_B]

Damn, F1 is merciless sometimes.

 

[nekkid]

Presumably they fucked up something during they hurried rebuild?

 

[Randdalf]

Gasly doing a good job

 

[DrM]

Presumably they fucked up something during they hurried rebuild?

With less than 2 hours it is easily to mess something up on such complex piece of engineering.

 

[Aiii]

Gasly has been very impressive all weekend, kid is delivering.

 

[Jezbollah]

Last year - engine failure wrecks Hamilton's championship
This year - engine failure wrecks Vettel's championship.

That's racing.

 

[Razgreez]

Hectically anti-climactic. Always annoys me when a driver's race is affected by complications outside of their control

 

[SilentRob]

God, this movie is so fucking good.

 

[Waveset]

Well that's a fucker, not what we want to see.

 

[Randdalf]

This year - engine failure wrecks Vettel's championship.

I mean it was really the Singapore crash that wrecked his championship, he'll be fast enough to finish top 6 tomorrow.

 

[tlop53]

sweet sweet Malaysia fucked hamilton last year now vettel

 

[theignoramus]

I saw alot of Ferrari fans rooting for mechanical failure for Lewis this go around. I feel bad for Seb, but not for those fans that wished that.

A broken engine doesn’t tend to cause you to drive into other cars.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Seriously wonder if it's worth Ferrari sitting out this weekend and then having the PU elements fresher for the end of the season

 

[Ark]

Oh man, forgot what time the qualy started. But Vettel out having just used his final engine?!

What a turn of events.

 

[Dilly]

Seriously wonder if it's worth Ferrari sitting out this weekend and then having the PU elements fresher for the end of the season

He'll easily take points in the race.

 

[Sloane]

Championship is pretty much over now unless Hamilton has bad luck.

If it's raining tomorrow, anything can happen, and Ferrari currently looks faster than the Mercs, so...

 

[Jezbollah]

You wind up merchant I kind of meant at Malaysia

Spoiler

but you're not wrong

 

[aspiegamer]

However much Ferrari troubles might make me giggle at times, this season is good enough that I'd rather this get settled out on the track. Why can't Kimi's engine have died instead? Boo.

 

[Randdalf]

When it rained in Monza the Ferraris weren't so good

What about Catalunya last season?

 

[Aiii]

Lets have that VER pole finally.

 

[DBT85]

Nat, he'll take points and new parts since he's already at the back.

Shame for the championship fight, tho I'm OK with it.

Should be fun seeing him carve up the field though.

 

[JDB]

Lets have that VER pole finally.

It'll probably be an easy HAM pole.

 

[Orbis]

Well this is by no means over, Hamilton went from a safe 25pts to zero here last year. Vettel can easily score points and potentially a podium tomorrow.

 

[nekkid]

What about Catalunya last season?

What about it?

 

[Dilly]

It'll probably be an easy HAM pole.

If you haven't paid attention for this weekend it might.

 

[DBT85]

Rai for pole and the win pls.

Spoiler

If its not Ham obvs

 

[JDB]

If you haven't paid attention for this weekend it might.

Seems to be doing alright again now. Maybe it won't be quite as dominating as some of his other qualis, but I can definitely see him getting pole again.

 

[John_B]

There are still 6 races and plenty of potential drama, but completely throwing away two races that looked like wins is pretty damaging.

 

[Dr.Phibes]

What about it?

What made him take out his teammate and blame him and the team for the rest of the season?

 

[nekkid]

What made him take out his teammate and blame him and the team for the rest of the season?

There’s a difference between a miscalculated overtake and overly-aggressive driving sideways towards other cars.

 

[Dr.Phibes]

What made him take out his teammate and blame him and the team for the rest of the season?

Sorry, why are we talking about last year?

Vettel, obviously.

 

[Zeknurn]

Someone should ask Ricciardo for another prediction in which Verstappen takes out the two Mercs.

 

[JDB]

Why do drivers go out again even though they're comfortably in the clear so often?

 

[Razgreez]

I'm confused by this second run

 

[Dilly]

Sweet lap from Vandoorne.

 

[Tempy]

Both McLarens in. Williams and Toro Rosso out.

 

[nny]

McLaren

 

[Aiii]

STR s gonna laugh their asses off next year when their Honda engine outperforms that Renault powered McLaren.

Wax, is that you?

Yup, just as it looks like Honda are beginning to get the hang of things.
