McLaren doing something right for once, btw?

 

[Wax Free Vanilla]

Alonso, Kimi, Button for the podium. They better not fuck up the pitstops.

Massa pitting again?

 

[mclem]

How far would Button need to go to two-stop? Wondering how much he can do when he has to take the option.

 

[PdotMichael]

lol RBR didn't fuel Webber yesterday, now the Toro Rosso, and then your own mechanics don't fit the tires well !!! SERIOUSLY !

I hope you don't think that wasn't Webber's fault.

 

[Gareth Bale]

Surely Alonso got this now

 

[Shaneus]

Did anyone gif the Webber/STR incident? I didn't see any of it.

 

[Jibbed]

If anyone can 2-stop its Jenson

Did anyone gif the Webber/STR incident? I didn't see any of it.

Vergne was a few car-lengths ahead and took the standard racing line, Webber had a half-baked lunge, and Vergne didn't budge (/didn't see him).

Why didn't Perez punt Vettel.

Just a small one.

25 or so? Should be doable.

it was, but the same car let Vettel past so nicely, not so with Webber's.

 

[Adamm]

Alonso!!!!

 

[Dead Man]

Combined effort.

 

[navanman]

Alonso leads.

 

[Chris R]

Whats this about a 1 race ban? Buxton was just talking about it since Webber didn't pull off

 

[Lach]

Kimi's nose...

 

[Blablurn]

Poor Rosberg. He also has no luck at all

 

[bobnowhere]

Raikkonen has 6s or so on Vettel, I wonder if they think they can fit a nose change in the gap.

 

[PdotMichael]

Well, not trying on the worst possible part of the track helps a lot though.

 

[DrM]

Poor Rosberg. He also has no luck at all

Mercedes race pace is awful today

 

[nny]

Kimi keeps his nose; improvement confirmed!

 

[PjotrStroganov]

Already thought so Kimi not changing nose.

For driving an unsafe car? Would be a bit harsh

Although most drivers do stop straight away when they notice their tire isn't on

 

[Dead Man]

At least the stewards are actually investigating during the race this weekend.

 

[jey_16]

I have a bad feeling that Vettel is going to win

 

[Lach]

Butten still hasn't stopped?!?!?

 

[Sloane]

I have a bad feeling that Vettel is going to win

Doubt it with his strategy.

Who said that?

I think Webber thought it was a suspension issue and relayed that to the team, so they told him to drive it back.

I doubt anything will come of it.

 

[Chris R]

WTF is up with the Merc?

Who said that?

Will Buxton just said that there could be some kind "suspended" ban if the team knew the wheel was loose and didn't tell Webber to pull off right away.

 

[Mobius 1]

Britney out.

 

[Adamm]

I have a bad feeling that Vettel is going to win

No way, he still has to use the soft tires

 

[navanman]

Bad luck for Rosberg.

 

[fu3lfr3nzy]

DNF? wat

 

[Dilly]

Rosberg getting that Schumacher car.

 

[Gareth Bale]

I swear Rosberg doesn't even finish half the races

 

[Sloane]

Mercs falling apart as expected. :/

 

[Fantomex]

Mercedes are like finesse cars, they either do amazing or have horrible reliability issues.

Button is panicking lol

 

[Shaneus]

Webber's a finesse driver :/

Button adding a turn of wing in the pits, managing tyres beautifully by the looks of it

 

[Chris R]

Button did 24 laps on those tires, so he is going to stop once more on lap 50ish.

 

[Wax Free Vanilla]

Excellent first stint for Button, good stop as well.

 

[Dilly]

Alonso directly in clean air just ahead of Perez, good strategy from Ferrari here.

 

[Hackbert]

Hamilton can drive, but can he last with his drivingstyle.. argh. i hate these tires

 

[mclem]

Butten still hasn't stopped?!?!?

Gary Anderson reckons he needs about four more laps to be able to two-stop, and he didn't quite do that. Still, he's a bit of a wildcard for the rest of the race.

 

[Adamm]

Button did 24 laps on those tires, so he is going to stop once more on lap 50ish.

That's the plan, use soft tires for only 6 laps

Button getting in trouble for overtaking under yellows?

 

[Jibbed]

Button and Grosjean under investigation for using DRS under yellows
