Shocking by Merc, stupid. This strategy fails EVERY time, now they are going to do 2 stints of 15 laps on medium tires, but did 23 slow ass laps on hards for no reason. Now they both have to push stupid hard and gain an entire pit stop back on Vettel now.

Haven't 3 sets been used now?

What Ros, you can't make it to the end, or well you can at mclaren pace.

Skeeter · 29 Mar 2015 at 08:53

Oooo hards for Rosberg.... Uh....

Mercedes look like they have got this all wrong

Screwed it up right at the start with the knee-jerk pitstop under the SC.

Don't be so confident. I predict Lewis winning this.

If they both pit one more time lewis is going to need to average 1s a lap faster.

Not happening.

Split strategy, always means one of your cars is on the wrong one.

Shows mercedes are having a bad race and are taking a punt.

Not sure what that means, started on mediums, hards till now, mediums now, he's used two sets. Probably the third set will be slightly used from Q1 qualifying but he wasn't pushing them.

Pitting under the SC is the sensible thing to do.

But Ferrari were clever enough to spot an opportunity and took it.

Lol JB!

hahaha

Button "I'm really surprised we seem to be catching up cars"

Game over, Vettel's race to lose.

In other news, I feel so sorry for Alonso. Lewis to Mercedes, Vettel to Ferrari raised eyebrows but clearly paid off. Alonso having a mare so far.

Hamilton does a new fastest lap on lap 28. 1:14.976

Kvyat and Hulkenberg under investigation - causing a collision.
