Well, whatever you think about Rosberg and Hamilton, it seems like the main subject at the Merc' debrief is going to be how Rosberg's actions, today, f**ked-up his team-mate's race, damaged his own chance of winning and, therefore, screwed the team out of around 25 points.

Vettel is just an average driver. Shows it was the car that won the titles.

They have basically just put a load of miles on Lewis' engine for nothing, it was clear that he didn't have the pace to actually get up the grid. |

I'm rapidly coming to the conclusion that he's worse than Schumacher was at his worst and he'll win the championship by whatever means it takes, fair or foul. He's also clever enough, it seems, to get away with it. And today, he ruined the spectacle of the fastest two drivers going head to head. |

Notice that even though he got 2nd he didn't look too happy in the drivers room. Maybe realising the stick he's going to get from the team and Hamilton. And he gets booed on the podium. Lol.

Ricciardo is fast becoming another favourite of mine. What a driver. And putting Vettel firmly in the shade

Pretty poor all round from Merc today really.
They have basically just put a load of miles on Lewis' engine for nothing, it was clear that he didn't have the pace to actually get up the grid. And yes, they should have retired Lewis earlier. No doubt if his engine fails on him at one of the double-points races, Lewis will be fuming, and rightly so. Quote:
He is but good team driving by vettel early on to keep rosberg at bay and let riccardo build a lead

I don't think Rosberg clipped Hamilton deliberately but it was his mistake - will he hold his hands up and admit it or say Hamilton didn't leave him enough room? I'm surprised Lauda called Rosberg out in public. |

This is the second time Rosberg's done something that looks very suspiciously like dirty tricks though - the first being in Quali a few races ago.
I'm rapidly coming to the conclusion that he's worse than Schumacher was at his worst and he'll win the championship by whatever means it takes, fair or foul. He's also clever enough, it seems, to get away with it. I still don't think he's deliberately being slippery, but he's certainly had all the luck this year. S'funny, Rosberg seems to have this "mister nice guy" image but, when you look back at his career, he does have form for being overly aggressive and a little clumsy so it shouldn't be a surprise when he gets involved in this stuff when the situation arises. Loving the way EJ gave Rosberg a big introduction which, of course, led to the fans giving him a HUGE boo. EJ must've known that'd happen.

I understand why they kept Hamilton out, though. If there had been a safety car at some point he would have come straight back into play, albeit the damage to the suspension would have played a part. I think Hamilton played a part in the suspension damage as he drove too fast heading back to the pits.

I'm surprised Lauda called Rosberg out in public. Has he not forgotten what you're supposed to when you have a puncture? Drive slowly to the pits. EDIT: Lol the Totonator's fuming

"Unfortunately" they didn't get 1 / 2 says Rosberg. Yep, someone was an idiot, enjoy your TV viewing.
And, Eddie, stop censoring the crowd ! |

Go for it, Toto !
Surprised, but good. Gets better, he now recognises that they kept Hamilton out too long. |
