Autosport reporting Hamilton has been allowed to change the damaged set of Super Softs for another used set.

That's rubbish. Again rules mean nothing.

Hamilton doesn't want to be stuck behind Bottas.

Good start by Rosberg.

Junglist · 19 Jun 2016 at 14:06

Not as much drama as I thought there would be on a first lap

Nice one Crofty - ruin the climax of Le Mans for anyone who decided to record it to watch later so they could watch the start of the race. Guess that'll be because it's on Eurosport rather than Sky?

Lots of overtaking going on but doesn't feel exciting.

Agreed.
Looks like it'll be a Merc 1-2, if there are no accidents.

Ferraris 3rd and 4th as well.

Good track for ordering all the cars exactly in line with straight line performance.

So much better than Skys though, had to watch them for the last race and I lost count how many mistakes they made.

It will eventually just rest against the sides.

Emlyn_Dewar · 19 Jun 2016 at 14:18

Does the undercut really matter, with overtaking so easy?

UTmaniac · 19 Jun 2016 at 14:19

Wow, Lewis 264kph in the toe behind the two Williams! :eek:

What happened to RBR, Merc 2013 car they have all of a sudden have great qualifying pace(or massively improved) but their tires have fallen to pieces in the last two races that they have been stronger in qualifying.

Not a chance, he literally must be blind he misses everything then it takes dc two minutes to find a gap to butt in

I'm going to guess you meant 364kph, otherwise that would be slow as hell

utajoker · 19 Jun 2016 at 14:21

226 mph!
