Glad senna`s record stays intact.

We'll have an exciting race tomorrow

 

[Lach]

ah...nice to see the RB guys congratulate him...

 

[JadedWriter]

Congrats Vettel and Ferrari, can't believe tire pressures fucked up Mercedes. Back to MGS V.

 

[Dutch Gronk]

GERMAN JESUS IS HOME!!!!

IT'S HAPPENING BROT! IF THIS YEAR IS SO GOOD, NEXT YEAR IS GONNA BE THE BEST!

 

[aspiegamer]

Ferrari probably less interested in supplying Red Bull after today... Or, at minimum, it would be an incomprehensible decision.

And damn, I'm so mad at Red Bull. Have been anyway but especially after today they're showing they're just a bunch of spoiled babies. (The team, not the drivers)

 

[nny]

Red Bull mechanics giving their respects to Vettel )

 

[olore]

hope he crashes turn 1

 

[brotkasten]

Still angry about Kimi.

First Ferrari pole in over 3 years, wow. It's been that long?

http://www.statsf1.com/en/ferrari/pole.aspx

First pole in normal/dry conditions in 5 years.

 

[Igo]

So was it upgrades or just the track suits them?

I think it's the high mandatory tyre pressure coming from Pirelli and the FIA. Maybe they're finally found a way to equalize the field.

 

[Lach]

+ first time a car on pole without Mercedes engine since 2013....

 

[nature boy]

Only if he won time there, I'd imagine.

Should be deleted, completely off the track.

The rules are BS, BTW. "Gain an advantage".

 

[Mastah]

Mercedes are clearly sandbagging, tomorrow they will unleash their true power and cruise to easy 1-2.

 

[Terbinator]

Button banter.

 

[sam777]

Button top man

 

[Zeknurn]

Ha, Button is great on TV.

 

[Xando]

Gotta love jenson.

 

[Mastah]

And that's why Jenson should stay in F1

 

[TCRS]

So was it upgrades or just the track suits them?

I was expecting a strong ferrari anyway, singapore has always suited them. but wasn't expecting a pole and such an amazing lap.

 

[Zeknurn]

*As a presenter for the BBC

 

[Terbinator]

And only see him every other race?

 

[Mastah]

Yeah... no.

 

[ElTorro]

Kimi's new contract justified.

 

[brotkasten]

Kimi's new contract justified.

Worth every penny.

However, he doesn't seem to understand that "#2 driver" seem to refer to the track position as well.

 

[Risgroo]

Button banter.

Button top man

Ha, Button is great on TV.

Gotta love jenson.

And that's why Jenson should stay in F1

What did he say? I'm watching The Marcus Ericsson Show, so I miss all the good stuff

 

[Zeknurn]

And only see him every other race?

He's pretty great alongside DC and I wouldn't want to waste him on SkyF1 unless they get rid of Herbert, Hill and Lazenby.

 

[Xando]

Toto and Lauda not looking amused on german tv.

 

[Aiii]

Should be deleted, completely off the track.

Yeah, if it's an advantage, change the track to include that part or put some blockage there to avoid the drivers from going there. These rules are shit, I'll bet we'll see a bunch of penalties tomorrow on that part and it'll fuck up some races for some drivers. Stupid rules ruin the sport.

 

[Goldrusher]

Toto and Lauda not looking amused on german tv.

Toto: "It doesn't look good for tomorrow."

Niki: "We're going to need a safety car."

Nico: "I don't understand. We tried everything, nothing helped."

 

[Aiii]

What did he say? I'm watching The Marcus Ericsson Show, so I miss all the good stuff

Bunch of self deprecating humor related to driving a car with a shit engine, really.

 

[brotkasten]

Kimi not happy with the car since this morning and didn't expect to end up on P3.

Oh Kimi, always good for a chuckle.

 

[chadskin]

Toto: "It doesn't look good for tomorrow."

Niki: "We're going to need a safety car."

Nico: "I don't understand. We tried everything, nothing helped."

Rosberg to be the new Piquet Jr.

 

[Zeknurn]

Toto blaming the tyres. Classic.

 

[massivekettle]

Why, exactly? Records are meant to be broken.

On another note, where is Hammer? Interesting to know what's going on with Mercedes...

 

[Xando]

James Allison just seems like such a nice guy.

 

[Mastah]

Kimi's new contract justified.

Even Webber, who was always poor in Singapore, was never outqualified by Seb by more than 6 tenths.

Useless as usual, Ferrari mascot and number 2 driver. "The fastest driver in F1" some people said and still say, LOL.

 

[brotkasten]

Hamilton says the tires are not working on the car.

"So weird"
"Very strange"

 

[Zeknurn]

Hamilton says the tires are not working on the car.

"So weird"

It's obviously retribution from Pirelli for being humiliated after Monza.

 

[Mastah]

Would be funny if Pirelli gave them mediums and hards disguised as super softs and softs

 

[ElTorro]

Hamilton says the tires are not working on the car.

"So weird"
"Very strange"

Wow.

 

[brotkasten]

Lauda on Sky says they have no grip with the new tires and they just don't know why and can't seem to understand the problem at all. They tried everything. 3rd is the most he can hope for.

And the tire pressure has nothing to do with it, he says.

Nico says they don't know what it's about. He's very, very frustrated with being over 1 second off the pace. They tried every setup and all the changes possible.

 

[ElTorro]

Inb4 Vettel winning the WDC thanks to insane second season and Pirelli screwing Mercedes.

Stop it. Everything is going back to normal next week, so lets just enjoy these weird circumstances.

 

[JadedWriter]

Wow.

#Hamildoge

 

[Ce-Lin]

that legal tyre pressure /Kappa

so glad Senna's record stayed intact, average top5 driver on dominat car didn't deserve to take that away.

That's very harsh.

And Lauda said that the tire pressure has nothing to do with it.

Can imagine that? But let's not get hasty here... Even if the situation was permanent 3rd and 4th pos would secure him the title.

Curious to think what you made of Vettel beating all those records through 2013...

Senna was leagues above whatever top drivers we have now

Yeah, no.
