Nothing from merc regarding that wouldn't they have to change the gearbox? Don't think he entered park ferme as did not complete qualifying and so they wouldn't get a penalty for changing a power unit element as not a sixth element.
Bit complicated with the rules these days. |

I was already wondering if someone somewhere had decided Rosberg is to win it.
They seem to be overdoing it. Last edited by Lin4237 : 01-05-2016 at 10:13. Reason: Forgot to include the post I was referring to - sorry |

That's some start - Vettel rammed not once but twice for no reason; he's unsurprisingly unhappy.
This is working out very well for Hamilton - already up to fourth. |

The 2nd one looked like he targeted him
![]() Hamilton's dropping back from Bottas - might just be buying himself some space. Here's the Vettel interview... EDIT: I think Ferrari must have plied him with Valium prior to placing him in front of the cameras.

Sky trying to create a feud when one clearly doesn't exist. Pathetic.

Williams throw it away again. They're just not with it tactically or with the car itself.

Water pressure issue for Hamilton. Though it doesn't seem to be affecting him for the moment. Currently second, about 7 seconds behind Rosberg as they go through traffic.

Hamilton now dropping away from Rosberg - gap back to eleven seconds - but is keeping pace with third place Raikkonen.
Luck is not on his side at the moment. |

Hmm just as Rosberg has a big enough lead in the race, Hammy's car problems end.

Yeah boring race by all accounts and Hamilton is basically guaranteed to be taking grid penalties later in the season because he's gonna exhaust the limit on what he has left. Rosberg deserves a title anyway he's been with the team for so long and through so much. It's iust ashame its gonna be gifted to him. On current form, he'd be a match for Hsmilton anyway.

Thought the race was quite eventful and exciting again. Surprised so many people are down on it.

Did anyone else wonder why Vettel swore in English?
It all seems to be going extremely well for Rosberg, hmmm. |

The gremlins do seem to have it in for Hamilton and he needs them to switch to Rosberg's car pronto. Not an especially exciting race apart from the start and Kvyat shunting Vettel not once but twice, the first one looked his fault, the second one not so much.

Didn't Hamilton and Rosberg switch mechanics? Maybe I am wrong but thought I read that somewhere.
Could explain why Hamilton is not having a great season as Rosberg had quite a few issues last season. Pretty much already over now in terms of the championship. Like a poster said higher up the page, Hamilton will more than likely incur more penalities near the end of the season and Rosberg also seems on top of his game. Hamilton also took his eye of game after he won the title last season |

Don't think you guys should all worry Lewis says nothing bad is happening at Merc and he is feeling all your support. http://www.foxsports.com/other/story...nd-prix-050216 Quote:
Regarding the conspiracy theorists he said: "Firstly the people that might be saying that are feeling whatever pain that I am feeling. That's the thing, we win and we lose together. They're feeling the hurt and emotions that you go through because we're connected in that way, that's a beautiful thing. * The championship is far from over. They come way with all these stats on the TV about what happened in the past but those guys forget this is a 21 race season. Seventeen races left is 425 points on offer."Naturally in any sport or any situation the easiest thing is to jump to the negative. I just want to assure them as I said before my guys are doing a fantastic job, and it's not their fault." There is plenty of time for hamilton to grind away some of the gap and then a Rosberg DNF will swing it right round. In all the races Rosberg has not beaten Hamilton by just outpacing him. Rosberg is proper analytical he will know this. Right now he is enjoying the winning and it validates his style of racing but I doubt he thinks I've got this. |

All times are GMT. The time now is 15:54.





I wonder how long until they get an interview with him?
