Funny how Bahrain safety car has quickly been forgotten And what about Bahrain SC? other than it wiping the lead which is a well known facet of SC s anyway - not that I like that aspect either This SC was diffenet because it happneed in the pitstop window and the real draw of luck was on who was at...

^^ Not me .. I never criticise strategies because I have full faith that the teams do their best given teh evidence "at the time" and I do not beleive in the conspiracy non-sense plainly because no team will harm their own chances in trying to big up the other. However - this race was Vettel's and D...

I have never seen such a lottery as the SC at Hungary 14. Race was completely reversed on its head. It may be entertaining to see a bloke driving the fastest car from the pitlane come up the grid but this was just ridiculous. No other SC lottery has altered the results as much at this one? The whole...

Who cost Rosberg the race win? Rosberg. Nope, it was the timing of the first Safety Car. Rosberg would probably have won if he (along with Alonso, Vettel and Bottas) hadn't already gone past the pitlane entrance when it was deployed. Actually I m gonna open a thread about that. Thanks for reminding

If the drivers were the other way round, I believe LH wouldnt of waited for team orders he'd of just attempted an overtake. I also believe never in a month of sundays would nico have let LH past in this race. If LH had caught nico on the last lap he would of overtaken him without a doubt. If a cow ...

And Hamilton has the pace for more than second if the team had put him on the optimum strategy. I don't see how people can't see that. Hamilton was in front. Hamilton has new softs Rosberg only had used available. Hamilton would have pitted first giving him one more lap to catch the 2 in front. How...

I would very much have liked to be a fly on the Mercedes wall yesterday. Hamilton cost Mercedes points, though I can see why he wanted Rosberg to fight for the advantage the SC took from him. I'm not a fan of team orders, but I'm even less of a fan of the Spectacle Car. Hamilton's loss on Saturday ...

It might be true that Nico was never in a position to overtake Lewis. Seeing how close Nico came in the last laps the podium and maybe even the win was still in reach though. It probably would have been better than finishing third and fourth. Lewis did was best for him in order to finish ahead of N...

How was it not a fight for position? How was ros ahead when he still needed to pit? It quite patently was a fight for position.

And who has come in support of Ham - Brit commentators ? 8) What are the nationality and job title of Lauda and at which company does he work?

Didn't Herbert say that if they put Hamilton on the soft tyre he would have won the race? Irrelevant. Only question is - Team asked Ham for something and HAm didnt obey.

I think that Hamilton probably weighed up the benifits it could do to Merc's WCC challenge (which is basically won anyway) vs. the damage it could do to his own WDC challenge and made the right decision. I think it's such a red herring when people say drivers should always follow their employers in...

There aren't to similar instances. Similar instances would involve both drivers being given the optimum strategy. Here is a question for you.

Dan will need some time to adjust to high DF car and even then there is no guarantee that he will be as good as the EBD maestro

So now Hamilton drives from the pits and is battling with Alonso & DR the last 5 laps, for the lead of the race, bearing in mind no driver has ever won from the pits before. Now I can understand people voting for others, but how anyone can discount people who vote for Hamilton is simply ridiculous....

There is no doubt circumstances helped the top 3 massively. But they had a lot of work to do to get their respective positions. There is no doubt that the cars helped Hamilton and Rosberg in the 11 last races...the circunstances in this race was tough circunstances,when the track was difficult Alon...

Surely the strategist has to be mobile. Hamilton got himself ahead of Rosberg and the strategist should have reacted accordingly. Nn NO ... Lewis didntt get himself anywhere... SC lottery did.

how much closer did Ham wanted Ros to be? He was timed at .2 sec behind .. thats as close as the timer can meausre..

Hamilton was clearly defending... I say Nico rid himself of the nice boy image and give back what he gets.. What say guys?

All three podium finishers were extremely lucky today.

Still Dan did a gret job in overtaking so Dan for me
