Kobi smashing it again. Love it.

 

[soujiro_seta]

Kobayashiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

 

[Dead Man]

Kobay is the most entertaining driver out there. Awesome.

 

[Aegus]

These new tyres are working out perfectly.

 

[Stop It]

Vettel lost KERS so we're going to see a very annoyed Vettel is Hamilton catches him.

KERS + DRS = Vettel being skinned like a kitten on the main straight.

 

[navanman]

KERS failure for Vettel.

 

[Chris R]

These new tyres are working out perfectly.

They really are. Just need to bring back refueling so even more pit strats can be used.

 

[modulaire]

Very entertaining race!

 

[soujiro_seta]

LOL @ Vettel "repeat the KERS message" haha!!!

 

[John_B]

Vettel KERS problems. Hamilton looking good for his last stint on softs with everyone else on hards.

 

[Stubo]

Those lap times showed Button catching him by .1, .1, .3 in the last 3 laps (possibly not in that order). Would this be because of the airflow or is he not close enough for that benefit yet?

 

[Stop It]

Alonso "Don't worry, I'm already pushing"

Fair enough.

 

[jey_16]

Alonso....."don't worry, I'm pushing" gold

 

[Stop It]

Just to show the effects of the tyres here, Sutil, in 14th and Buemi in 16th are faster than everyone except for Vettel at the moment.

 

[Aegus]

Ugh I really dislike Lee McKenzie. Always the same same question delivered exactly the same way "Tell us what the problem was?"

 

[moojito]

Looks like vettel is still using kers a bit.

He'll be on the radio saying "what was that? something about kers? I can't make out what you're saying!"

Or "Why is my sidepod on fire, you said not to not use KERS so I did!"

Webber epic fast now thanks to his new tyres.

 

[Stubo]

If this is Red Bull's pace without KERS...well. Troubling times ahead for everyone else.

 

[Stop It]

Very slow pit from Hamilton, that'll let Button through.

Just ahead of Webber now.

Edit: A lap later, Button pits.

 

[Dilly]

Sjeez, the track is littered with pieces of Pirelli.

 

[Stop It]

Button is now epic. I mean really epic.

Vettel and Alonso still going off in the lead and 2nd, but would need to pit very soon.

 

[Shaneus]

When did Webber last get new tyres? I was out for about 10 mins.

 

[Dilly]

And again a shitty pitstop from Ferrari.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Seriously, Pirelli need to be commended. This is fucking awesome.

 

[Stop It]

When did Webber last get new tyres? I was out for about 10 mins.

Ages ago.

He will either perform a miracle, or need to stop again.

That said, if he keeps Alonso behind him, he doesn't need to stop again.

So, this is now a battle between Vettel and Button? 9 seconds between the two. I think Vettel has this unless if something weird goes on.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Kobayashi vs Schumacher, Round 8

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Good shit kobayashi!

 

[Stop It]

So Webber pits? He's going to have to sprint like nobodies business to get 4th back.

 

[Shaneus]

Webber in, fresh tyres. Hopefully he can power through.

 

[jey_16]

Alonso vs Hamilton.....let's go

 

[megateto]

Where's Nando's wing?

 

[Dilly]

I always love it when Alonso and Hamilton have a good fight on the track.

 

[Aegus]

Haha Alonso.

 

[jey_16]

Dammit.....Alonso's doesn't have drs, it's going to be tough

 

[Stop It]

"It's gone all custard for D'Ambrosio"

Pun of the day.

Also, Alonso and Hamilton touches! Alonso smashes into Hamilton under breaking.

 

[navanman]

Alonso idiot mode confirmed!

 

[DrM]

Alonso main contender for idiot of the race award

 

[megateto]

Well, at least he tried .

 

[Antakken]

Alonso ahaha! Hope Hamilton won't have to change his tyres again.

 

[Chris R]

Thought that tire was a gonner for sure... wait and see I guess. Lewis won't be happy if this takes him out though.

 

[navanman]

Looks like he hit Hamiltons tyre flush on and got away no damage.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Alonso... :lol :lol

 

[Juicy Bob]

The Alonso and Ferrari fanboys will be unbearable for the next two weeks.

 

[kharma45]

Why did he have to be so rash?

 

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

Alonso must be super thankful to Ferrari awesome DRS system...

....not working.

 

[Shaneus]

About as thankful as Webber for KERS.

 

[Stubo]

More Kobayashi awesomeness there, top drive!

 

[megateto]

The Alonso and Ferrari fanboys will be unbearable for the next two weeks.

Why would we? He tried to make the best use of his new tires, got his wing broken, pushed for the pass and missed big time. Bad for him but he fought for it.

 

[Stop It]

The Alonso and Ferrari fanboys will be unbearable for the next two weeks.

For the next 2 weeks? When are they ever not unbearable?

Anyway, Webber vs Massa. DRS but No KERS but epic tyres vs KERS but older tyres.

 

[Shaneus]

GREAT overtake by Webber

With the times he's doing, looks like he may even catch Hammy. 2 seconds/lap faster.
