Great, so first the team won't let him choose his own strategy, then the screw him with the pit-stop timings.

I know right! It's as if they have won both titles and just want them to follow each other without any controversy or issues...

Sounds like they'll do another stop

Err, I thought they weren't allowed to give info on other drivers?

Sure they can. The rules prevent any messages that aid the driver in driving their own car.

Skeeter · 15 Nov 2015 at 16:54

3.5 seconds is a gap where the guy behind is just cruising to the end.

Vertigo · 15 Nov 2015 at 16:55

Most boring race of the year?

Sorry no, the only one who has spat his dummy and needs hugging on the track to keep him happy is NICO.... he needs his hand held to get wins.

Hmmm. This isn't accurate. They're both as bad as each other. When Nico does anything remotely aggressive to Hamilton his dummy is thrown out.

Not at all, there's loads going on. It's just tainted by a massive Mercedes corporate **** being curled out on top of it.

Edit: really OcUK? That's filtered? Yet crap isn't? :rolleyes:

Been this way since Hamilton won the title

Vertigo · 15 Nov 2015 at 16:57

That cat's making me yawn.

Just add it to the races in this entire season.

There have been good races this year, the result of the season was a foregone conclusion after preseason and Ferrari showed improvement but no where near enough.

This track is just dire, relatively equal cars can't pass except on the straight and under the current formula with very different tire life.

Feel asleep about 30 laps ago and just woke up. Have I missed anything

drunkenmaster · 15 Nov 2015 at 17:02

Hamilton just sent a "I'm clearly faster, you know why I'm second fans" message. Other than that, one brilliant Max overtake on Perez and nothing else interesting at all.

Looks like Hamilton has just woken up too...

Yep.

Bring back the V8s but the exhaust exit must stay the same at the back.

So, there was a droning sound in the living room that I couldn't quite identify. Then I realised that I'd left the TV on, and it was the BBC F1 commentary.

Skeeter · 15 Nov 2015 at 17:04

Ah, no, he's dozed back off again

Explain how the V8s would solve team strategy orders, please?

Vertigo · 15 Nov 2015 at 17:06

So last stop and Lewis nowhere near close enough to do anything. Anyone got any wet paint I can watch dry?

EDIT: And what happened to going longer on tyres?
