Terrible nights sleep so I guess I'll stay up and watch the race. Might even get back to sleep after its over

 

[Celebrimbor]

its amazing how quickly people forget, that it only was 2 years, 2011 and 2013.

Yeah, at least in 2012 McLaren/Lotus were equal if not on occasion faster.

 

[sam777]

Vettel cruises to dominant victory - "wow, this race was so exciting, it wasn't another boring Mercedes 1-2".

Erm. If its boring people will say its boring. Every race Mercedes has won has pretty much been boring though. And the last race Vettel won was the best race in the last two years. This maybe boring we will see.

So Audi buying RBR, engines in 2018.

RBR getting Ferrari engines for next 2 years.

Renault buy Lotus.

Grosjean to HAAS?

Perez to Renault Lotus?

Mercedes not on pole.

Crazy weekend.

 

[kharma45]

Not on BBC in the uk until later

Very true, 2010 was a very good season to watch with 5 people in with a shot with a few races to go. And had McLaren not had reliability problems 2012 would have been even better.

 

[Zeknurn]

Alright lets do this. I haven't been this excited for a race in years.

Perez and Maldonado in the same team sounds like a summer Hollywood disaster film.

Toto wolff confirmed both cars have a software problem with the start procedure system. Trying to fix it in 5 min.

 

[RoKKeR]

Why am I awake right now. Ugh.

 

[ramparter]

Who bets on Ric passing Vet first turn? I wish but Vet has good starts.

 

[Jezbollah]

This is going to be the most interesting race of the year.

 

[nny]

Let's do this!

 

[TCRS]

alright

GO VETTEL

1. VET
2. GIMI
3. RIC

 

[nny]

I love those sparks.

 

[Aiii]

its amazing how quickly people forget, that it only was 2 years, 2011 and 2013.

Even more amazing that people forgot five full years of Ferrari/Schumacher dominance.

 

[Kyougar]

verstappen out

 

[Chris R]

Pro evasion skills by the 2nd force india just then

 

[ramparter]

[dakun]

It's the first lap ffs.. Do people even give it a chance anymore before calling every f1 race boring? Apparently not.

 

[dalin80]

Exciting!

Just like the Red bull era.

 

[Par Score]

I'm pretty sure Perez just defied physics to avoid collecting Hulkenberg or ending up in the wall himself there, I have no idea how he still has all of his wheels and front wing attached.

 

[DrM]

3 seconds wow

/autosport forum mode on

They have the best car now, because Mercedes cannot cheat any more with tyre pressure

/autosport forum mode off

 

[shaki123]

Man, this is boring as hell.

 

[Chris R]

So who's going to attempt 3 stops?

 

[sam777]

This is boring, very boring.

 

[Lemonte]

Maldonado please make this interesting

 

[Massa]

Yes, this thread is very boring.

 

[shaki123]

Yes, this thread is very boring.

Maybe you should start overtaking your teammate then?

 

[malyce]

Yay FIA, introduce shitty front wings so cars cant follow in dirty air and we have boring ass follow the leader races like this even if the trailing car is over a second faster than the car infront. Also continue to think that increasing DRS effectiveness is gonna somehow make a difference in 2017.

 

[ramparter]

Ric going faster, I knew this wouldn't be boring.

 

[Chris R]

Praise be to the mobile chicanes making the race watchable for a few laps

 

[John_B]

Come on Ric!

 

[DrM]

Kimi probably started to overheat his tyres

 

[nny]

Oh snap

 

[Milchjon]

SMRT

 

[shaki123]

Hulkenberg stupid noob.

 

[Chris R]

SC time, now to see how it all shakes out

 

[stryke]

a lot of slow stops today

 

[Zeknurn]

What the fuck.

 

[muteki]

What the hell was that.

 

[Massa]

Maybe you should start overtaking your teammate then?

Are you excited?

 

[RoKKeR]

Willolms

What in the hell!

 

[bobnowhere]

Nice work Massa.
