Makes no odds. the Mercedes is still easily fast enough for Lewis to start from the pit lane and come second.

with the weather as hot as it is and mercs questionable reliability im not too sure on that happening

Chilton .8 seconds slower that bianchi, sure he gets slower every week.

Right front failure. You can see it freely rotating forwards and then backwards as he went off while all other 3 wheels aren't rotating.

Just said that to my old man, I picked it up on the last reply and wanted to see another one before saying for sure.

Unlucky Lewis. Looking to be a awesome race with Lewis driving for a top 3

Brundle sported it too. The puff of dust suggests a pad failure or something.

Was that big hole meant to be in the side of the force India? Looks like someone has had a go at it with a hacksaw, think they must be getting hot!

Well spotted :cool:

So it was a front right disc problem for Lewis.

XeNoN89 · 19 Jul 2014 at 13:38

Merc confirm front right disk failure for Lewis

Housey · 19 Jul 2014 at 13:40

I called rear right, but very clearly right front now.

drunkenmaster · 19 Jul 2014 at 13:42

Hamilton's luck will be the only thing that can cost him the title this year basically. That could have failed in any most other corners and just led him to him going really wide, limping back and then having 10-20 mins to swap out another disc.

grrr

Clearly a conspiracy to keep Rosberg ahead.

Yeah its been 5 minutes since Mercedes confirmed it was a disk failure, where are the accusations that Mercedes fitted a duff one deliberately?

They borked Rosbergs car so Hamilton could win his home race, clearly they have borked Hamilton's so that Rosberg can win his. :rolleyes:

or just bad luck.

Makes for an exciting race tomorrow, hopefully Williams and RBR can apply some pressure to Rosberg
