Bahrain Grand Prix 2016, Sakhir - Race 2/21

The tail end is where the closer times are as well, so in essence, it's making the whole format less exciting.

Guerrilla · 2 Apr 2016 at 16:12

Stupid.

413x · 2 Apr 2016 at 16:13

No drama is there.
It's very monotonous

Skeeter · 2 Apr 2016 at 16:13

Perz out as he can't get a lap done in time.

Wehrline can't get another lap in.

3 and a half minutes of Q1 left, and its over.

.:MBK:. · 2 Apr 2016 at 16:13

Manor making the most of the format I suppose

bayo000 · 2 Apr 2016 at 16:13

Good lap from Ricicardo

Glaucus · 2 Apr 2016 at 16:14

good god commentators you idiots. perz never even remotely had time. took you long enough to realise.

Flibster · 2 Apr 2016 at 16:14

Yup. Still complete and utter love spuds.

413x · 2 Apr 2016 at 16:14

Haas impressive. Looking like inspired move by RG I'm pleased for him. My fav driver

Emlyn_Dewar · 2 Apr 2016 at 16:15

*Facepalm*

At least there are cars on track this time. We didn't have that last outing, come this stage?

Edit: Oh... It's not to set a time.

Yes we did. At the end of Q1 in Australia Palmer and a Sauber were having a head to head for the last spot.

Go Manor

I'm calling it, Nico will beat Lewis to the WDC this year (if Ferrari don't win)

413x · 2 Apr 2016 at 16:16

Surely this scenario was easy to simulate?

Mr Jack · 2 Apr 2016 at 16:17

Wow this qualifying format is ****.

Even with all the evidence, pointing to failure. They'll have thought it couldn't fail.
It's a lot like Hondas engine program.

I worked it out in my head in about 10 minutes after reading the rules proposal. And I'm an idiot!

timmeh · 2 Apr 2016 at 16:18

It's my first time seeing this new format in action. Oh boy, this is terrible. Sounds like the commentators are bored too...

413x · 2 Apr 2016 at 16:19

No dramatic end is there. It's just completely dull.
Gutteriez or whatever done well too. I like haas team principle. He's quite refreshing. I guess they will get bashed by the "cheating" crowd

UTmaniac · 2 Apr 2016 at 16:19

Penalty for Perez, staying out on track way after he was eliminated?
