Fuck off Ferrari, how do you expect to win a championship when your pitstops are 1.5 seconds slower than the competition.

That's 6 seconds this race that they lose to Red Bull just by pissing about during those pitstops.

Driving the way Nando does, that's how xd.

He's flying!!

 

[Dilly]

ALONSOOOOO.

 

[Nolan.]

I'm not really and Alonso fan but that was sweet

 

[jey_16]

Alonso!!!!! Yeah

 

[santi_yo]

Go Alonso, go!!!

 

[Edmond Dantès]

Driving the way Nando does, that's how xd.

He's flying!!

Indeed. In second place now.

 

[jey_16]

Where is Hamilton? They have not shown him that much

 

[S. L.]

Alonso flying and Webber falling back

 

[navanman]

Where is Hamilton? They have not shown him that much

He is driving style and turn 8 is wrecking the tyres.

 

[santi_yo]

HamilLOL

 

[Wes]

Such bad luck for Lewis.

 

[kharma45]

How I love to see shit go wrong for Hamilton :lol

 

[jey_16]

Hamilton.....excellent

 

[Keyser Soze]

Lewis got boned

 

[Edmond Dantès]

Button with a comfortable overtake on Massa. Hamilton has a dodgy pit stop.

 

[Stop It]

Where is Hamilton? They have not shown him that much

Having a nightmare stop.

Button clean through on Massa before Massa has to pit. Will Hamilton actually be able to use those tyres to the end? Same with Webber... 22 laps? Tough call.

 

[Feorax]

Dont think he has a choice now. Got to make those tires last to the end to have any chance of a podium.

 

[Dilly]

I really want to see Alonso in a dominant car again.

 

[jey_16]

Massa smh.....so they are all going for 3 stops it seems?

 

[brotkasten]

I really want to see Alonso in a dominant car again.

Isn't he driving the same pace as Vettel?

 

[Edmond Dantès]

I really want to see Alonso in a dominant car again.

Has he ever really been in a dominant car? The McLaren in 2005 was faster than the Renault, but compromised by reliability. The Ferrari in 2006 was more than a match for the Renault in the second have of the season. The Ferrari in 2007 was also match for the McLaren. He‘s never had a truly dominant car like the F2002 or F2004.

 

[Dilly]

Isn't he driving the same pace as Vettel?

The Ferrari is in no way as fast as the Red Bull.

 

[DrM]

Massa and Button proved that they can overtake..... but only Rosberg

Mclaren should sack their pit crew, bunch of incompetent morons.

 

[Edmond Dantès]

Massa and Button proved that they can overtake..... but only Rosberg

Didn‘t Button overtake Hamilton at the beginning?

 

[DrM]

Didn‘t Button overtake Hamilton at the beginning?

Maybe, missed first 8 laps.

Mclaren needs upgrades, they are lacking pace - racing with car from China.

 

[mclem]

Hamilton and Massa sharing pit-time *again*.

 

[santi_yo]

LOLMassa

 

[jey_16]

Jeez....the pitstops are sucking today for Ferrari & mclaren

 

[Dilly]

Jeez....the pitstops are sucking today for Ferrari & mclaren

They have sucked all year for Ferrari.

 

[DrM]

Jeez....the pitstops are sucking today for Ferrari & mclaren

Yeah, they mess up badly atleast once every race in both pits.

Meanwhile, RBR without glitch in 3.1 seconds.

 

[navanman]

Webber and Alonso crash please!!

 

[RankoSD]

Vettel had his DRS opened for a slow car, is that allowed?

 

[Edmond Dantès]

A Webber/Alonso battle incoming.

 

[Frawdder]

Well done Webber, just got to make sure he doesn't come back.

Great battle.

 

[Edmond Dantès]

Nice one Webber.

 

[Dead Man]

Webber!

 

[StayUp]

Go Webber!

 

[Edmond Dantès]

Massa puts the old man in his place.

 

[mclem]

Massa puts the old man in his place.

...put him out to pasture?

 

[kharma45]

Vettel had his DRS opened for a slow car, is that allowed?

If he did I'm pretty damn sure it's not.

 

[navanman]

The reliability of all the cars this year has been amazing, even more so the RBR.

 

[Aegus]

Come on Koba!

 

[Nolan.]

Mclaren really needed those upgrades and also not to mess up the pitstops for their drivers

 

[Edmond Dantès]

Come on Koba!

Up 14 places, another impressive drive from SuperKK.

 

[mclem]

Vettel had his DRS opened for a slow car, is that allowed?

Well, the *reverse* is permitted: http://www.f1live.net/whiting-lapped-drivers-can-use-drs-to-pass-leader-2011-f1-rules. That also suggests that what you ask would be *detected* as fair.

 

[DrM]

Mclaren really needed those upgrades and also not to mess up the pitstops for their drivers

Yup and upgrades must work, or they will fall back in Barcelona. If this was damage control race, they quite succeeded.

 

[Dead Man]

That's what he's talking about.

Bah. Good racing in the rest of the field though.

 

[justin.au]

Good solid racing. DRS made overtaking a touch too easy. Well done Vettel.

 

[Templar Wizard]

I AM A FUCKING LOSER

 

[S. L.]

that were a lot of messed up pitstops today
