Wow this is optimistic.

So a wheel flying off is not a big deal for McLaren.

Pretty awesome 3D vid of the monster lap vettel put in y'day.

@Mr Invisible is the facebook embed video thingy broken on the kennel or is it just because this is a 3D vid?

*Edit: oh you posted a FB vid above, must just be the 3D thing

Bottas belts the wall in qualifying... HUGE damage to the car.

Wouldn't be suprised if thats a complete rebuild, new gearbox and new engine.

Red flag Q3

 

[DoggiesBoy]

Mercedes are just trolling us with how fast that car is

 

[Mr Invisible]

Yeah .. gave the lap record a belting... that said Hamiltons last lap was mighty impressive. Just threw caution to the wind.

 

[DoggiesBoy]

Oh yeah it was a seriously impressive lap, luckily mercedes can't use that quali button all race long so could still be a decent race.

Its amazing - they pull into the pits, whip out the computer, push a few buttons, and hey presto, lap record!

What was Dan's grid penalty for? (I only say the end of the Q2 and then last one).

Speeding under a red flag during one of the practice sessions earlier. Pretty harsh penalty, it would have been 5 grid places but they gave him a concession because he did slow down but not enough.

i love kimi raikkonen tbh

im very suspicious of the new f1 owners, the racing product is down so i think they have encouraged the drivers to create controversy and interesting drivers press conferences but kimi is not a puppet so he shows his indifference lol

*yawn* Hamilton looking like another walk in the park today (pun intended).

Vettel has a free pit stop here. Just got interesting

 

[Mr Invisible]

HA HA!!! Go Vettel!!!

He needs to buy the Haas team a carton if this works out.

 

[Rodzilla]

lol hamilton wont understand what happened because he is an idiot, i remember at monaco a few years back he wanted to pit early in case the safety car came out but if he did it would be a disadvantage

ferrari did well by splitting the strategy and earning some track position

 

[DoggiesBoy]

Yes great move by ferrari! ..wtf are haas doing in the pitlane, that are in shambles lol

 

[Rodzilla]

HA HA!!! Go Vettel!!!

thats very suspicious btw, like sauber helping ferrari in 1997

 

[Rodzilla]

lol hamilton doesnt understand

How much does McLaren suck this year? Once were a great team...
