Re: 2016 European (Baku) Grand Prix Race Thread

Watching yesterday's GP2 start its almost worth taking a punt at starting from the pit lane. I don't know how engine allocation or penalties work. Could Hamilton take a new gearbox, engine etc to add to his cycle for the year if he did?

I'm thinking Rosberg will get the jump tomorrow at the start OR have a DNF which would really open up the championship again, I'm hoping for the latter. At the moment it really is Rosbergs to lose.
