Very likely.

FP1 has started. Now the wdc is over all we can hope is a good race.

Skeeter · 1 Nov 2013 at 09:23

Anyone else listening to R5L Sports Xtra? 'Gary's List' sounds quite interesting.

Some drivers are being told to seek out the shaded parts of the track to help keep the tires cool!

Loving the 180 cam on the Ferrari car

Skeeter · 1 Nov 2013 at 09:52

Yeah I heard that! Seems crazy!

Alonso running a rotating camera for FOM, just like the ones Indycar have had for years.

Still think they are fantastic and should be in F1 already. F1 one needs to move a little faster through. It's very slow at panning.

I've been wanting them to introduce that rotating camera for ages. Perfect use for it would have been last week when Rosberg came back at Hamilton on the first lap - you'd have actually seen the move then instead of a car coming out of nowhere.

Fp1 looks good so far. Vettel might not cake walk this one. Maybe only win by 5-10 seconds.

utajoker · 1 Nov 2013 at 13:13

what is the best quality stream for fp2 live ?

edit. nvm forgot...sky sports f1...

Flibster · 1 Nov 2013 at 13:16

Sky Go peaks at about 4mbps iirc.

For anyone who missed it

And that's another Pirelli going pop.

deuse · 1 Nov 2013 at 13:46

Are Ferrari sandbagging or are they that slow? but it's looking like all the other races a snooze feast.

Flibster · 1 Nov 2013 at 13:47

Yet another popped Pirelli - Button this time.

Useless. Utterly useless.

di Resta's puncture looked almost certainly caused by a fault in the brakes/wheel. The fact that Sutil's out of the car suggests it wasn't a tyre failure.

These cars are just falling apart today.

GravyMonster · 1 Nov 2013 at 13:57

It's about time they had the 180 cam. Indy car has had 360 cams for donkeys years.

Flibster · 1 Nov 2013 at 14:05

Wait... What?

Chilton to Caterham... Dear god no!

Magnusson and Bianchi at Marussia sounds like a good pairing - and will most likely beat Pic and Chilton reasonably easily.

MooMoo444 · 1 Nov 2013 at 14:08

Marussia to Caterham, what a jump ..

And it will ramp up from blockyvision to whatever is sustainable.
