Hes hardly ancient is it? Lets see how many of your "younger drivers" manage to win the GP2 title Well one of them will this year. Given only one can win it per year your point is rather lacklustre I'm afraid. Of the 2015 GP2 grid, of those announced thus far, only three are older than Palmer. Marc...

Wild idea: have McLaren place Magnussen and Vandoorne next to Stevens for at least 3 races each. That way they both automatically qualify for a superlicense in 2016? ;) edit: Vandoorne doesn't really need it provided he scores a fair bit of points in GP2 this year (which seems likely).

We can probably all sympathise with Jolyon Palmer: I really don't have much sympathy for people like Palmer. If this was his first or second season in GP2 then I would be ticked off. However, Palmer is a four season GP2 veteran that has won the championship due to experience rather than talent. Van...

Nonsense
Hamilton wasnt in front never mind in a position to overtake at that point - had he been it would have been a different story
Im not saying your bashing Rosberg but you need to be realistic as to whether the move stopped him being overtaken and the answer to that is no.

Do not believe the reversing would have affected the yellow-flag situation one bit. It's the initial mistake that brough out the yellows.

Vandoorne is in a tough position. Anything less than the tittle would be seen as a disappointment but no rookie has come in to GP2 and done well in years.
