Wow for Heidfeld's cool...I would have punched his lights out.

A ban might be a bit much, but I'll be really surprised if he doesn't get a penalty of some sort. 10 place grid drop at the next race, maybe.

Meant a race ban not a life ban. If someone pulled that in F1 there would be murder to pay for.

Bloody hell. He deserves a ban for that.

Go! Go! quick Nick!

just watching a stream now.. the cars look good but because they are styled the way they are, watching them it feels like they should be faster. looks like the camera has just picked up a car with a technical fault. Stream I have is french so every other word so far has been Montagny... There's lin...

The ITV presenter said, "The last time a Prost got pole was way back in '63 or something"... Am I the only one who feels she should have done a little research? As a team owner and one of the most famous names in motorsport surely he deserves at least a cursory wikipedia glance. Maybe she just forg...

Mark Priestly is a moron. If you think ctrl-alt-del is a reset button you really shouldn't be near anything technically complicated.

Mizanthropic

I agree from that perspective it's pretty much up in the air. Alonso might even decide he's had enough now that his mentor and staunch ally LdM has gone. But looking around the paddock I don't really see anyone who would be a likely improvement on either current driver, and from the drivers' perspe...

Ahmahgerd! Crash Taku is back! I must see this

Probably Heidfeld for nostalgia's sake and Ho-ping tung (Hopping tongue?) and China Racing for the novelty

Mizanthropic

It's a bad comparison just like comparing era's with traction control to without it.

Gutsy move by Marchionne, hope he can keep all the balls in the air during the transition, Monty was good for Ferrari, didn't make too many mistakes with the road car division as financial results show. The big danger, as I see it is that the Scuderia is going to be part of a much larger, America c...

We've got some interesting battles going on! It's really tight at the top 1-2 and 3-5 but Team 4 is looking to have a strong October as their package is well suited for podiums in Singapore and Sochi. We'll be looking to close the 17 point gap to the top :nod: Pffft you're only pulling away a small...

Surely Ferrari wanted an improved reputation, instead of openly going with a cheater?

Bring back that scumbag? The FIA should have upheld his lifetime ban.

To add more to the plot, Emilio Botin, Banco Santander CEO, has died this morning. He was Fernando's number one supporter in both sport and financial way. Banco Santander sponsored team Mclaren when he arrived there and currently Ferrari. Maybe the new CEO has another plans and put the sponsorship ...

Will this have an impact on Alonso's decision to stay I wonder?

Breaking News is that Luca has thrown in the towel. Apparantly he's announced his resignation this morning. He's going to be replaced by Sergio Marchionne.

I went with Ricciardo and Hulk as the consistent No.2

Oh hello bonus points.
Nicely done!!

Gratz, that should be the round win and put you up into joint 5th overall. Think I managed to catch Black Flag

but CM97 still has a 10 point lead or so.

No idea why Vettel pitted so early, really cost him in the last few laps. Even as a Vettel fan im delighted for Ricciardo, he always shines, I would go as far to say that RBR possibly have the strongest driver line up. I hope Red Bull are back at the top next year, a Vettel - Ricciardo fight for th...

In 2-3 races time he'll get another one because this one won't last till the end of the season. This is the dumbest regulation this season since it doesn't account for attrition due ot the implementation of new technology. Vettel will be next on the list along with the lotuses. With Hamilton's engin...

Mizanthropic

there's nothing to penalize, from Coulthard to the FIA, it's just a racing incident. Can we please just move on? Can we discuss how to team messed up Hammy's FP2 on purpose? Maybe Hamilton just isn't a good driver, lucked out his only WDC and now is attracting all sorts of bad luck? I'm sure there ...

Mizanthropic

There would probably have been a penalty had the drivers involved been from different teams. No one asked for an investigation or demanded a penalty in this case. Also the team told Lewis right after the contact that it was a racing incident. I don't agree. They didn't penalise Alonso for losing hi...

I love the Autosport commentary: Maldonado completes the set by running off at the Roggia too. That's all three chicanes' exits explored now. Aye, but he has no one to blame but himself for the ridicule. Maldonado realises he hadn't done the full-length escape road at the Rettifilo yet. He makes up...

There are many reasons why Merc have decided not to reveal all. One possible form of discipline may be from a race strategy point of view. i.e. give Lewis first call at pit stops for a couple of races rather than the usual rule of leading car gets first call. To reveal that level of detail to other...

Mizanthropic

Exactly what authority does a team have to take WDC points off its driver? I guess the idea was that Mercedes could arrange some way that Nico does not win certain amount of points, like purposefully holding him back in some races till, well, the "justice" has been served. They could disadvantage R...

I see your point, however, I would still think that not answering directly in that situation was a wise move. When being questioned on a controversial incident, I would think that a driver would want to have all the facts first. It may have been wise, but wisdom is not necessary when you haven't do...

Post race interviews are after the podium ceremony which would have been his first chance to apologize. Every former driver has said he was in the car he knew what happened. Really?

Well, but imo Rosberg did try to back out. If he was hell bent on making contact, it could have been a lot worse. He misjudged by inches to clip Hamilton's tyres. It's not like he did a Maldanado on LH in that corner. That's why this whole uproar is so ridiculous. Yes, he resolved to be more aggres...

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned yet, as it has been in the news for quite a while: The FIA will take no action against Rosberg after the collision with Hamilton at Belgium.
