Korean Grand Prix 2013, Yeongam - Race 14/19

So is Hamilton going to end up on a three stop trying to stay close to Grosjean, and Rosberg sticking to a two stop otherwise he's 12 seconds down losing what 5 seconds in the first stint and 7 already on a longer stint when Hamilton has been stuck behind someone the whole time while Rosberg has been in clear air. Is Rosberg this much slower or will he end up doing one stop less?

Commentator saying Vettel doesn't have the speed advantage here to do an extra stop... well firstly last race all those stupid idiots pitted so early they picked a ridiculously slow pace to last to the end and here Vettel blew out easily 1 second a lap faster whenever he wants, he's just holding back for tyres so Vettel does have the same race pace advantage, just once again not using it.

I'm 99% sure that Vettel could just go 1 second a lap faster for the next 35 laps and do an extra stop and no one could touch him. What is pretty boring for racing is that even if he finished further ahead seeing a car going it's max speed is so much more interesting :(
 
Hamilton, backmarkers or, dropped a second that lap, tyres going already? Yeah Rosberg 1.8 faster that lap.

Yup, Merc screwing up, Hamilton has been pushing 3 stop pace to keep up, but they are keeping him out costing him badly. If he stopped 2 laps ago he saves 5 seconds and just gets on the 3 stop strategy he should be on. That 5 seconds is going to screw him at the end of the race, and another lap. Joke, 7 seconds behind Grosjean and they didn't pit him, Mclaren level error.

This three laps while they try and stick to a two stop will cost Hamilton places at the end of the race, 9 seconds now to Grosjean, how stupid are this team.

So angry, ANOTHER god damned lap...... pit him and put him on a three stop. retarded.

12 seconds behind Grosjean, they could have pitted him after one lap, if you go 2.5seconds slower the tyre is dead, how on earth could they keep him out for another 3-4 more laps... utter utter idiots.

FFS, they will never make a 2 stop work, wtf are they doing, they've cost him basically already 2/3rds of a pitstop, wtf are they doing.

Hamilton was 12 seconds ahead of Rosberg with a pace that meant an extra stop would have worked well. Hamilton also now can't box before Rosberg, so it's another lap he has to do. Merc has ruined Hamiltons race so completely for no reason at all. Tyres off the cliff everyone would pit, everyone, not keep someone out for 5 more laps.

If Hamilton did a 3 stop he'd have come third worst in this race, he will finish behind Alonso, Kimi, Webber.... race over, utter utter incompetence.
