Re: 2016 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Race Thread

.

No one has addressed the basic problem, IF Rosberg was capable of going faster than Hamilton why didn't he and overtake him ?

Re: 2016 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Race Thread

. IF I were Hamilton I would be rather disgusted with the team "orders" - was anything stopping Rosberg from overtaking Hamilton ? Such "orders" go against everything Mercedes "claim" they believe in. P.S. I loved Channel Four trying to cover Rosberg's blushes by saying that over three seasons Rosbe...

Is that the end of F1 "free-to-air" coverage in the UK ?

.

I've lost track, but as far as I can work out that was the end of free-to-air F1 coverage in the UK.

Have Sky offered any (very) cheap delayed highlights packages to any broadcaster for next year ?

Re: 2016 German Grand Prix Race Thread

. For those people who somehow think Rosberg was driving normally (!) - look at the video. Verstappen had to change direction, almost stop and go off track to avoid Rosberg. Rosberg slowed down greatly and turned so late he only just stayed on track. AND YET, Verstappen despite his evasion of the ka...

Re: 2016 German Grand Prix Race Thread

.

How he can accuse Verstappen of anything other than trying to avoid a kamikaze driver I do not understand.

I think Rosberg has got a touch of "the red mist" - he needs to talk to his sports psychologist over the Summer break.

Re: No more double yellow controversies!

.

Whilst the two linked articles note about qualifying, what about any race ?

Whiting noted that drivers had asked for clarification, but he doesn't seemt to have given any for the races ?

How odd.

Re: 2016 Hungary Qualifying Thread

. A clarification please. If a driver sees a yellow, or double yellows waved (or the signs come up on the steering wheel) then he needs to slow = FINE Presumably that applies all the way until he passes a marshalls position where the yellow(s) are not being waved OR the yellow(s) on his steering whe...

Re: The Official NICO ROSBERG thread

Is there actually any news on the gearbox? Don't think we will know until a couple of weeks. But if it was a mechanical problem that he is definitely going to drop 5 places. So, do we know what is happening ? Is he going to get a grid penalty, or did the radio message (and associated small time pen...

Re: Austrian GP Qualifying and Race Thread

. Did Vettel reverse onto the track after his crash ? If you look at various videos it SEEMS that just as his car is pivoting against the crash barrier and he is about 135 degrees spun around his rear left tyre starts going backwards. At first it spins without traction, but he gradually goes from ne...
