McLaren don't use Petronas fuel. The Mobil 1 stuff isn't anywhere as optimised for the engine, and so the McLarens are a good 50bhp down compared to the other Mercedes powered cars.

is that you smr?

What happened in the Williams Pit stop?
The boy on the right rear got a smack round the head

According to Ted Kravitz Williams have an internal team challenge during pit stops.
The guy on the right rear was the slowest and got a 'playful' slap, it looked slightly more to me at the time and Ted said much the same.

I hope neither Lewis or Nico have any more technical issues for the remainder of the season. I want to see a straight fight to the finish.

Agreed, I don't want to see any more technical issues, even if Hamilton is still not even.

Mercedes really showed their true pace today when they had to...Hamilton nearly 3.2s a lap quicker than the next fastest at one point. Seriously impressive stuff. It doesn't seem the others have caught up at all.

You have to be kidding? Hamilton is still worse off in terms of reliability?

Even stevens between nico and lewis now. Rest of the season should be great.

Merc were very unnecessarily risking the finish by waiting to pit so long. As with what happened with Bottas, wear a tyre down too far and you risk damage. Even more so when asking a driver to push at a track like this you lose grip, you slide out more in corners.

Didn't Bottas have a slow puncture.

Why? In a straight fight Hamilton is quicker and Rosberg still has a better reliability record (and yet is behind in the championship).

hamiltons ahead because of better luck

Loving this selective post on the BBC F1 site prior to the race!!

You keep saying this and yet have no facts to back it up. You don't even seem to be responding to anyone now, just randomly posting?

Django x2 · 21 Sep 2014 at 17:59

Yes, 2 DNFs for Rosberg...such bad luck. Way more than Lewis. Oh, no, wait...
