Another set of medium tyres for Vettel. Now only ahead of Guiterrez. If they're that concerned about engine milage, they could retire him in a few laps and get a new gearbox for the next race and save a few miles.

There was at least 2 people clapping and cheering. Which I believe is 2 more than Korea had the other year

Good job Hamilton!

but they say three is a crowd, not 2

Button getting sarcastic over the radio. Obviously not having a good day.

No idea, something dodgy, I don't dislike Vettel, I just don't think he's very good. I'm about 95% sure they've got something relatively crap on the car, wrong setup, mistake, something broken maybe?

Or just old tyres, what's his pace now?

Regy53 · 2 Nov 2014 at 20:56

To be fair I heard cheering but not in that crowd

MooMoo444 · 2 Nov 2014 at 20:56

Button is mad lol

Well Hamilton isn't really pulling away but even if Rosberg is faster at the end I can't see him overtaking Hamilton.

massa is slowly catching the mercs.

What's up with Brundle's voice?

Out of DRS range, couple of tenths faster, easier on fuel and not being in the dirty air will be easier on tyres. Doesn't need to be storming away really.

I have tweeted him and told him he sounds like he's in a toilet

Massa is having a good drive here.

Didn't Vettel set his car up for the race. Which race exactly?

Monza or Spa?

Flibster · 2 Nov 2014 at 21:02

Magnussen radio - Did you go down the -0.4 on the wing that I asked?
Pit - Negative. Wing remained as it was.

The McLaren is **** in this race

MooMoo444 · 2 Nov 2014 at 21:03

Ric has mugged both Williams today

mmj_uk · 2 Nov 2014 at 21:04

Here we go, sabotage Hamilton with poor strategy time.

Glaucus · 2 Nov 2014 at 21:04

Ric is just amazing and should get driver of the year.

Flibster · 2 Nov 2014 at 21:04

Hamilton pits.

2.9 stationary
24.244 overall

Rosberg now coming in.

drunkenmaster · 2 Nov 2014 at 21:04

Stupid team over reacting to Williams pitting. Should have waited at least one lap letting them hammer the hell out of the tires.
