Mercedes will be kicking themselves... looked good for a 1-2. Where did Rosberg's pace go?
Quote from Intrepid :Mercedes will be kicking themselves... looked good for a 1-2. Where did Rosberg's pace go?

Kimi Raikkonen has received a three-place grid penalty for blocking Nico Rosberg during qualifying.
he was still quite a few tenths of hamilton in S1 and S2 though before he caught Kimi.
Quote from tristancliffe :Driver preference ultimately.

I guess so - that preference might change when they have it for 30 seconds per lap next year.
Quote from Storm_Cloud :Seems odd that Marussia have the KERS button on the right of the wheel, same as the upshifts. Would have thought it would be easier on the left.

Tried it driving home from work. Found it much easier to upshift whilst changing the volume control (on the left in my car) compared to moving through radio stations (on the right)

Having both buttons (kers + upshift) for right hand leaves the left hand free for other adjustments (and drs) though. Kers is only used early when exiting corners though and that's not usually the place where drivers do lots of adjustments on their wheels...

di Resta driving a cracker, deserves points from this.
Quote from Jertje :pic

Ferrari was waiting for him in the pits, but Alo decided not to pit, he must've thought the damage was not so bad, or dunno... Sucks, though.

And yeah, massive giggles at Hamilton.

Red Bull were a bit slow there though. Not bad for a number 2 driver though Seb. Teehee.

E: Oh McLaren...
Bottas in 10th!
