Mine doesn't seem to have recorded.

FP3, Kimi's car pee'd all over the track and made him think the car had a puncture as it pee'd all over the rear tires, that was about it.

So they are allowing cars off the track this weekend? Typical FIA inconsistency.

Brilliant lap time from Hamilton - made that look easy.

Again, nope, Rosberg went a full second slower with his going off track. It's consistent but people just ignore it. THey remove times NOT for going off track but for going off track in corners where there is an advantage gained by going off track. For the most part going wide and off the track doesn't actually help you, astroturf, dirt, bumps, gravel and simply being a longer route. There are a few specific points at specific tracks where there isn't much penalty for going wide and the ability to go wide lets you take the corner faster and gain time overall.... these are punished fairly consistently.

How much would Hamilton love the Bulls to qualify in that position. Hamilton and the Bulls seem to be the only ones with grip.

CaptainRAVE · 25 Jul 2015 at 13:14

That will hurt Rosberg having to use those tyres if Hamilton then doesn't need to. Difficult decision though, don't want to get that call wrong.

Honestly not convinced, with Mclaren talking up Hungary for ages and them trying to show off speed in practice.... it honestly wouldn't surprise me that Mclaren have pre-made excuses for these things.

But WTF are these morons doing, red flag, everyone pitting, just run into a ******* pit lane.... that is insane.

Alonsos gonna see if being pushed by 4 marshalls is quicker than the Honda engine

CaptainRAVE · 25 Jul 2015 at 13:35

Fair play to alonso trying to get that car back - why didnt they help him sooner? Took them too long to red flag that tbh too.

robbiemc · 25 Jul 2015 at 13:35

And now Alonso breaking down by the pit entrance.
Dear oh dear oh dear.

Guerrilla · 25 Jul 2015 at 13:35

Alonso pushing his car back to the pits... That man needs a good car so badly.

They didn't help him sooner because marshalls are trained to wait until the circuit is neutralised before putting themselves in danger, unlike retarded drivers that think it's OK to jump out of your car and start pushing it on a live circuit

Not just that, red flag means they are all coming into the pits, pushing a car into the pit lane as cars are coming into the pits is beyond retarded. I fully understand why he wanted to but that was asking for an accident to happen tbh.

Honda refusing to seek outside help is just stupid. I really expected that car to at least be challenging for Q3 by this point in the season. A bloody Sinclair C5 would have more hope at points.
Hopefully Button and Alonso stop regurgitating the marketing material, would be nice to hear a bit of rage aimed towards Honda. It's F1, you need a development pace slightly faster than that of wind erosion.

CaptainRAVE · 25 Jul 2015 at 14:05

Hamilton has destroyed rosbergs lap, nearly into the 21s. Good stuff. No one quick enough to get between the mercs though.

MooMoo444 · 25 Jul 2015 at 14:06

Half a second better in Q3. Rosberg will be a bit gutted that he's so far behind.

Merlin5 · 25 Jul 2015 at 14:07

Great lap from Lewis!
