So Rosberg has ovetaken someone under the red flag that was for massa in P1 on the corner before where massa was.
Rumours of no penalty, he went to the stewards and said oh i didn't mean it.
Do these rules even matter? If you dont mean it then its ok we will let you off.

The rules are fine, if you check the FIA website and highlight everything they've just put "all rules must in any circumstance possible... screw Hamilton", they just change the colour of the text to match the background.... totally legal 
It's amazing how often Hamilton seems to get screwed and others tend to get away. I still say the majority of his shunts with Massa/Maldonado/Webber (all but one really) were all quite clearly the other drivers fault yet only a couple got punished and Hamilton got done for every little thing even when not his fault.

Last time I saw an F1 engine cover come off like that was at Hockenheim in 1994 - Alesi's Ferrari disposed of its engine cover in far more spectacular fashion.... as a Ferrari of its day would have done I suppose!

Loads of failures, Hammys car stopping, Rosberg overtaking under red flag, Torro Rosso having a wheel come off after 13laps, and Mercedes having an engine cover come off. Fun times!
that would cost to much...... *sigh*

Maybe it is because he is black....

i want consistency, button got a 3 place grid drop (i think) when he did it last year.
it don't matter who it is, they clearly broke the rules and not even a reprimand.

was there today and all weekend. nice and warm but the wind had some chill.
Cars sounds a bit weird in person.
To begin with me and my pal thought they were ok, nice and deep, decent wastegate chatter etc. However after FP1 they did a 50th anniversary lap parade and at the back was a diffuser blown red bull from 2012 i think. Jeez it was loud and made you think the sound of the new cars are still lacking hugely.
That said the extra torque they get low down is showing who can drive and who cant. They look a hanfull out of the slow corners.
Im at luffield is anybody about.

That is probably the most biased post I've seen from here for a while, and that's saying something.
Hamilton's only misfortune is his lack of reliability in a couple of seasons. He's had plenty of luck fall his way, including in my opinion the luckiest win of the past few decades (Monaco 2008).

New cars sound great in the flesh. Really interesting with lots of detail. I do miss the deafening scream sometimes but you still get that with GP2. They're definitely still noisy, but you can still have a convo.
Sitting in luffield earlier with without earplugs they were definitely loud, you couldn't hear them going around abbey and into the new hairpin like with that old redbull though!

Even after this race we won't be at 1/2 distance in the title. There's no reason why the DNF's would carry on going one way and the cars won't get more reliable as we are seeing.
Anything could happen in this title race between them, Hamilton fans on here are the most pessimistic bunch. It's coming across as a real woe is me everything is against me attitude

Looking forward to this one

Doesn't that only apply if the vehicle is moveable? whereas Massa's car was decidedly undrivable.

Has F1 got women drivers during races now?
