Nico, don't turn into a villain plz

 

[Hammer24]

Even row is pretty bad here - now watch RIC take 2nd after turn1 tomorrow.

 

[Dilly]

I want to see more rivalry, more! Could totally save this season.

 

[Ark]

I hope Lewis drives up and bumps him out of the way now. Fuck fair play.

Hopefully Hamilton will drive like a man possessed tomorrow from the rage.

It's the only thing that could save this season, actually.

Haha, he thinks Red Bulls are great at starts.

 

[tHoMNZ]

lol Lewis 'was a couple tenths up, but its ok..'

 

[PdotMichael]

Hamilton was behind Rosberg anyway.

A little bit too much drama by Hamilton right now, who didn't have any problems with defending extremly hard against Rosberg in Bahrain.

 

[Yagami_Sama]

I don't know about you guys, but this qualify was so lame.
Magnussen faster than Button, and Button missing to be in top 10, is very lame.

And "good job" for Rosberg, one may say that he did on purpose. Like I am, but who knows..

 

[justjohn]

Well tomorrow should definitely be interesting.

 

[RukusProvider]

FUCK YOU NBC! Why did you cut away mid question!?!?!?

Too much drama coming from F1-GAF too.

I came for the Danny Disco matching or exceeding Vettel, and stay for this.

 

[markao]

who's the more hungry again

But to me it looked like someone over driving the car to make up for lost time in the 1st sector, but telemetry at Mercedes and therefore Lewis (he was up his previous lap time) his mood tomorrow, will make that 100% clear.

Also nice Q session from Kevin !

He was a couple of tenths up..so how in the world is that behind. Math how does it work?

That was racing in Bahrain. This is downright cheating because Rosberg knows he can't beat Lewis in a fair fight. Fair play is out of the window now. Dick move by Rosberg.

 

[Leg-End]

Well thats made it tasty for tomorrow.

 

[Juicy Bob]

No way did Rosberg do that on purpose. No way did he do what Schumacher did in 2006, which was 'oh shit! I've made a mistake, better block the track'.

He made a mistake and disappeared down the escape road like he should've done. He was out of the way, so there should not have been an issue if Lewis had carried on full speed and beaten him to pole even if it was under yellows.

Also, I fucking hate how David Croft and Simon Lazenby try and look for every minor excuse to build some sort of imaginary 'beef' between Lewis and Nico.

 

[Ark]

Hamilton playing the mind games there. 'Was up a couple of tenths.'

 

[PdotMichael]

He was a couple of tenths up..so how in the world is that behind. Math how does it work?

He was beating his own time not Rosberg's.

 

[Deadman]

Lol Hamilton. He clearly thinks it was deliberate.

 

[Konosuke]

I fucking love Hamilton lol

 

[Ruruja]

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

 

[Gareth Bale]

So why did he need to reverse when his teammate was still going round the track? Why couldn't he have been told to wait?

 

[Ark]

Wait, Rosberg reversed while people were still on hot laps?

If that's the case, I'm going to believe it was 100% deliberate.

 

[TCRS]

lol britney is so happy.

 

[hamchan]

Even though Mercedes will dominate this season, seeing this rivalry play out will make it quite entertaining

 

[FuturusX]

He was beating his own time not Rosberg's.

And he was fastest in that sector overall. Who knows but there's a good chance it would have fallen. But we'll never know right?

 

[Caramello]

Wait, Rosberg reversed while people were still on hot laps?

If that's the case, I'm going to believe it was 100% deliberate.

Yellow flags were out while he was there. Getting out of the escape road would be the best thing he could do to those out there.

 

[Wax Free Vanilla]

yes

you can see him reversing on hammy's onboard camera

rosberg needs a penalty, he should have parked it at the end of the escape road

 

[markao]

I don't think that it matters, car in the escape road means yellow.

 

[TCRS]

begun the star wars have.

 

[zomgbbqftw]

Reversing on track? Grid penalty. It's complete fucking bullshit. Rosberg has intentionally fucked with other people's hot laps.

 

[Caramello]

yes

you can see him reversing on hammy's onboard camera

rosberg needs a penalty, he should have parked it at the end of the escape road

No, yellows are waved while there's a car there.

 

[pants]

I forgot just how salty hamilton fans can get, good lord.

 

[Zeknurn]

Natalie's interview with Hamilton and then Hakkinen with the rest. So good.

 

[hamchan]

What's most distasteful is Nico celebrating even though he ruined Lewis' lap. Mistake or deliberate, either way I think he shouldn't be acting like he's king of the world.

 

[Ruruja]

Ted Kravitz is such a bullshitter these days. Saying 4 or 5 team bosses he spoke to says it was 100% delibrate.

 

[navanman]

Sky asks the team bosses and engineers and they agree with view that it was deliberate by Rosberg

 

[Ark]

Yellow flags were out while he was there. Getting out of the escape road would be the best thing he could do to those out there.

What? Absolutely not, especially at Monaco.

yes

We actually agree on something.

I don't think that it matters, car in the escape road means yellow.

It matters absolutely.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Yeah, I agree with that.

 

[zomgbbqftw]

It's the same bullshit as when he kept saying he had the WDC lead and holding onto that as some kind of safety blanket. The only reason he had that lead was because of a DNF from Lewis, one which he had no control over.

Hamilton needs to be ruthless here and ask for a review by the stewards. Fuck team management and harmony. Rosberg threw it out already.

 

[NHale]

The only thing that makes me believe it wasn't on prupose was that Nico's car was already unbalanced since the start of the lap. But at the same time maybe that's why he did it.

It's save to say that their friendship is pretty much over.

Was there any friendship left though?

Considering Hamilton saying he's hungrier because Nico was born on a golden crib, I would suspect they aren't exactly drinking beers together.

 

[Nicktendo86]

Cheating German bastard

Spoiler

half serious

 

[Hammer24]

Bwahahahaaa, meltdowns in a F1 thread!
I think some people need a cooling shower.

 

[tHoMNZ]

Anthony Davidson just showed that Hamiltons '2 tenths up' is just pure fantasy. rosberg had a better s1

 

[Caramello]

What? Absolutely not, especially at Monaco

So why were there yellow flags while Rosberg was sitting at the end of the escape road then?

 

[markao]

It matters absolutely.

What do you mean by that?

A car in the escape road means yellow will be waved, because it needs to be free for other cars that run in to (maybe more serious) problems.

 

[cmr-94]

Anthony Davidson just showed that Hamiltons '2 tenths up' is just pure fantasy. rosberg had a better s1

I think hamilton meant on his own time

Rosberg under investigation

those celebrations were aimed at Lewis. I think they were meant to annoy him
