[Glaucus]

Now sainz

 

[Psycho Ned]

2 cars playing up on the formation lap and neither is a Mclaren who'd have thought it

 

[UTmaniac]

So 43 lap race now then, maybe less if Sainz continues to have probs.

 

[Flibster]

Kvyat coming on the radio saying that Sainz has a problem and may have to overtake him.

Kvyat and Ericsson have a nice clear getaway.

 

[Glaucus]

The merc wings still look odd.

 

[steve45]

Oh dear...


One on the mercs, do they always run the Pitot tubes on the nose?
I dont remember seeing it often outside of practice/testing. Maybe i just havnt noticed recently.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Better! Rosberg lost out. Hamilton needs a gap now.

 

[Psycho Ned]

Blimey Perez was nearly in the lead then!

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Oh, there is the gap already!

 

[utajoker]

think he got the gap

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Hamilton is laughing now. Perez will hold them up.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Wow, a good move by Rosberg.

 

[elmuzzy66.]

Clearly Rosberg needs aids!

 

[Psycho Ned]

Hmm not sure if Nico should give that back, need a replay.

 

[drunkenmaster]

haha, Perez nicely done, Hamilton did pretty well, Rosberg did awfully.

Hamilton should pull out quite a bit on Perez in S2 though.

Kinda laughing, for like 3 weeks Rosberg has been saying in response to the new starting procedure that it's a good chance to take an advantage over Hamilton

 

[cravin penut]

that camera shot by the side of the track was brilliant. more of that!

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Geez, Vettel went for that.

Mercedes power overcomes the slipstream on that straight.

 

[Flibster]

One on the mercs, do they always run the Pitot tubes on the nose?

Yup. Best place to get clean-ish air. All the teams run them there.

 

[drunkenmaster]

Lotus dead.

Maldonado, zero lucks given.

 

[smr]

At least maldo disdnt crash. Thats a victory for him.
