Bahrain Grand Prix 2014, Sakhir - Race 3/19

So… which of all the rules was it that made the race good? I'd say it was lack of aero.

 

[Skeeter]

they need to put a stop to these podium interviews.

Its ruined by the crap people who do them. They work great in GP2 as Will Buxton is really good, and when people like Brundle do them they are OK. But picking a random celebrity to do them is just cringeworthy.

Croaky, yorkshire twang - me no like lol

The move Perez made from McLaren to force India is looking pretty good too

everyone who has made a move from mclaren is paying of

 

[Psycho Ned]

Dread Silverstone we'll send Jordan up there or something!

(Not Eddie though he wouldn't be any better )

It's both. It's lack of aero and massive amounts more power. Which means tail happy.

I agree.

"i strongly dislike coming 2nd to Lewis", lol.

 

[utajoker]

too all the people moaning about the noise, that could have been silent, it is still one of the best gp of the last 10 years.

Being able to turn a good exit from one corner into an overtake at the next is a welcome change. Before they just floored it and went.

Lower downforce and more power makes it more exciting.

Was some rather good battles in the race, a few moves reminded me of the earlier GP2 race.

Yep, just reducing the aero, wouldn't give us this racing. You need the hybrid to extend the power band to the full rev range.

Yes, coupled with uber torks.

Go say that in one of the many engine threads and prepare for a barrage of made up history, pictures of engines, and cherry picked quotes from people who aren't doing well

Do you have a flying pan or wok?

It needs to make a clang noise against your head, go into your kitchen and report back please.

Like Loldanardo?

Great race. The fight between merc drivers was brilliant. Loved it!

 

[muon]

So did Hamilton lack boost for the first part of his battle against Rosberg?

That just makes his defence of turn 1 even more impressive.

Torque, be it from a turbo or an electric motor, is very much welcome. It sounds poo, but its about more than just noise.
