Am I right in thinking that because they started on inters, they don't have to use the prime and option tyres?

Which could turn out well for Hamilton as he should have a brand new set of options in hand as he didn't go out on a new set for Quali 3.

mansell is the driver steward so makes sense

Ah now it all makes sense!

Either way fantastic drives from Button and Hammy thus far, lets hope they keep it up and challenge the Redbulls.

All penalties are a stop go this weekend, if they did a drive through they actually are 6 seconds quicker than normal because they cut the final 2 corners.

Is the right answer

schumachers stop go is a joke.... did button get one at canada for alonso?

Yeah good point, where is the consistency there DC?

DBT85 · 10 Jul 2011 at 13:37

nice move form heidfeld while going through the traffic

there will be NO drive throughs this weekend becuase it is FASTER than the racing line! It's nothing to do with Mansel for crying out loud

DRS zone and speed difference was yet again insane.

DC and MB probably praised button for that same as they nearly always priase lobayashi for his stupid moves.

as soon as schumache slides a bit and catchs the back off someone "OH MY GOD MORE SLOPPY DRIVING FROM SCHUMACHER!"

there bias is a joke

the penalty is and its not the right decision for a racing incident look at previous races and how many times people have got away with similar mistakes.
mclaren seem to get away with it a lot

Pitlane too short, so any drive throughs are now stop & go

Okok calm down didn't realise that. Shame the commentators aren't as informed about why its a stop-start penalty to avoid confusion, they were asking why it wasn't a drive-through also.

DBT85 · 10 Jul 2011 at 13:42

Hammy only 6 ish off of Vettel

It's been mentioned at least twice by either them or Kravitz.
