OH, BOO HOO. While you guys are crying on your keyboards stroll has a Formula one drive and is living a life of luxury. Get over yourselves life has never been fair. You'd think he was the only paid driver in F1. The kids got talent but needs seat time. New, much faster formula, 18 years old and who...

For all it's charm and history maybe it's time for this race to go away. The cars have outgrown the circuit and the novelty has worn off. It's a shame but all good things come to an end.

spiritone

That was just a bad call on that penalty. I would argue that call no matter who got the penalty. Nobody gained any advantage so what did the penalty accomplish. Wasn't everybody posting last week "let them just race" now it's "well lets penalize every little chickens##t move".

spiritone

Ham slowing up didn't screw up anybody race. Ric still came put ahead of him. The cars behind ric were to far back to be affected.

spiritone

Rules are rules even when vettle lines up outside his box last race.

spiritone

Penalty for impeding ric who beats him out of the pits. So ric gains position and ham still gets penalty. stewarts should have ignored that and we might have had a race.

spiritone

Merc gave that one away

I cannot understand why some drivers lag so far behind on restarts. Some off the mid pack drivers are a mile (exaggeration) behind the car in front of them. Some of the best chance for a pass are on a restart. The front guys understand this but some others seem oblivious that the race is restarting ...

spiritone

I understand that merc changed their suspension because they found a better solution. They mentioned the expect another 2 tenths.

spiritone

Seems the stroll critics have temporarily retired. Hope the steady improvement will bode well for the start of the season.

spiritone

Stroll fast and No crashes. Comments?

spiritone

Good start for Haas.

Trying to gauge how a car really looks by a photo never really works well. Tomorrow when they are all on the track should be a much better indicator of how they compare to each other. Wish i could be there.

With the amount of data that is collected now i am sure that these cars could do without a driver. This is not like the argument of seena vs prost sharing data, the computerization of these cars has gone far beyond that. Does it stop when you don't need a driver? Should the discussion start now abou...

spiritone

If seb said this you honestly think we would be on page 4, really? First off, none of the other drivers seem to touch anything thats controversial. Everybody says "Drivers should be more open" but the minute he voices an opinion posters are jumping all over him. Having the hamilton on any topic on t...

spiritone

If everyone comprehends it why am i looking at poster after poster talking about setup info. If any other driver made this remark there would be an entirely different tone to these posts.

spiritone

He's not talking about SETUP DATA. Listen to what he is saying. Can't believe some peoples comprehension skills.

spiritone

Nobody can a rise out of forum members faster than hamilton. This forum would be dead without his quotes. There is a difference between setup data and drivers data. The setup data that the team needs is not the problem its the fine driving points. This is not the days of seena and prost. The data th...

spiritone

Wether you like him or not he knows how to use social media to not only promote himself but make people aware of F1 Other drivers should take note.

spiritone

Need this kind of promotion for their drivers.

I think some posters on here should back and look at the thread where it was announced that hamilton had signed at merc. The opinion by most was that he had made a horrible mistake.

spiritone

How many wins would hamilton have if he had a designated #2 driver like shumi. Just the years with Merc would have brought him a lot closer if he didn't have to battle rosberg.

Having said that, it really is next to impossible to compare drivers but it makes for interesting arguments.

spiritone

Not alonso. Toto couldn't even handle hamilton - rosberg how in any ones imagination could he handle hamilton - alonso. They both may be older but the competitive fire to win hasn't diminished in either one one of them. They would eat toto alive. Being canadian my pick would be robert wickens. Won f...

Inappropriate post removed.

Inappropriate post removed.

spiritone

Sorry but those photos don't fit the narrative of the haters.

spiritone

You guys are a riot. Dissing a poll by team bosses, the guys that hire the drivers, the guys that have all the data, the guys that watch the drivers through all 21 races, testing. Then you make up your list based on who knows what (tv watching,maybe)

Keep it up, i needed a good laugh today.

spiritone

Anybody who has been in a race crew will know how close knit they become. F1 is the top of the mountain for mechanics and engineers. The competition between crews is just as fierce as the competition between drivers. The bond that develops between drivers and crew is like family. You would go to war...

"Money corrupts everything" As the 1% take over the world and all sports are dominated by money why is anybody surprised that sportsmanship has taken a dive. Sorry but i don't think what hamilton did was unsporting, if anything it made rosberg actually fight for the championship and made him look be...

spiritone

Hamilton No doubt. 1. Even while losing a championship he is the main talking point. 2.He was smart enough to wait until after the last pit stop to start the slowdown so merc couldn't mess with his strategy. 3. He exposed the merc B.S. that were going to let them race. 4.Made a race that would have ...

Does that mean if rosberg is running fourth they won't change strategy to help him?

Interesting quote by paddy lowe. "The best seasons are the ones where it goes down to the wire at the final race and we have created that" "We have created that" Odd choice of words.

spiritone

Merc should be going after key, don't rate allison that high.

spiritone

Neutral fans, no such animal, this is the internet.

spiritone

VDV23 I think rosberg would give both of those drivers a run for their money. This coming from a hamilton fan, i happen to think rosberg is underestimated by most people.

spiritone

I agree that rosberg is being conservative in the race but i don't think that applies to qualifying. Hamilton has out qualified him at tracks that used to be rosbergs and he just won at a track he used to be bad at. Watching how frustrated hamilton was at the end of last year i don't think he was ha...

spiritone

If both drivers are treated equally how do we explain rosbergs wins after cota last year and now hamilton outqualifying and winning over rosberg at the very same race tracks?

spiritone

Lewis just finds out in interview that they worked late on his car friday. Curious. http://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/merce ... em-841622/

Reliability problems have not ended yet.

spiritone

We shall see, isn't proof of anything. I could come up with "stroll is buying up Red Bull and is moving his son there" See it's easy.
